A settlement has been reached in a class action lawsuit against Compex Legal Services, Inc. (“Defendant”) regarding a cyber incident during which an unauthorized user gained access to Defendant’s systems and which was discovered by Defendant in April 2024 (the “Cyber Incident”).
You are a “Class Member” if your personally identifiable information (“PII”) or protected health information (“PHI”) was or could have been impacted as a result of the Cyber Incident. Defendant mailed and published notice of the Cyber Incident to Class Members starting in August 2024.
Defendant has agreed to pay $872,500.00 (the “Settlement Fund”) to settle the claims in this case. All Class Members are eligible to receive (a) payment for documented losses up to $5,000.00 and (b) a Cash Payment of $100.00-$200.00, subject to a pro rata adjustment based upon the total number of Valid Claims.
Your Legal Rights and Options | Deadline | ||
Do Nothing | You will receive no payment and will no longer be able to sue Defendant over the claims resolved in the Settlement. You will remain a member of the Settlement Class and be subject to the terms of the Settlement if approved by the Court. | No Deadline | |
Submit a Claim Form | The only way to receive a payment or other benefit. Claims must be submitted by August 19, 2026. | August 19, 2026 | |
Exclude Yourself | If you ask to be excluded, you will not receive a cash payment, but you may be able to file your own lawsuit against Defendant, for the same claims. This is the only option that leaves you the potential to file your own lawsuit against Defendant for the claims that are being resolved by the Settlement. To be effective, you must submit a request for exclusion by the deadline. | July 20, 2026 | |
Object | If you do not exclude yourself from the Settlement Class, you may submit an objection telling the Court why you do not like the Settlement. If your objection is overruled, you will be bound by the Settlement. | July 20, 2026 | |
These rights and options—and the deadlines to exercise them—are explained in the Notice and FAQs.
The Court in charge of this case must still decide whether to approve the Settlement and the requested attorneys’ fees, Service Awards and costs. No Settlement benefits or payments will be provided unless and until the Court approves the Settlement and it becomes final.
