If you were a victim of one or both of the Lancaster University data breach incidents, you may be entitled to make a claim for compensation on a No Win, No Fee basis.

The university recently announced that sophisticated and malicious cyber attacks had taken place, and that student and applicant data may have been exposed. We’re therefore prepared to take cases forward for victims of the incidents, and with our lawyers already fighting for justice in a number of group and multi-party actions already, you can be assured that your case is in safe hands with us.

This isn’t the first time we have represented university students for a data breach incident. If you need legal advice about your options, we’re here for you.

What has happened?

The Lancaster University data breach incidents involved two cyber attacks that have led to the potential exposure of personal and sensitive information for a number of students and applicants.

One of the attacks is understood to have affected 2019 and 2020 applicants, and the following information may have been exposed:

  • Names;
  • Addresses;
  • Email addresses;
  • Telephone numbers.

The second attack reportedly involved the student records system, and information which includes identification documents may have been exposed.

In the wrong hands, this kind of information could result in theft and cases of identity fraud.

Can you claim as a victim of the Lancaster University data breach incidents?

You should be promptly informed if you were a victim of one or both the Lancaster University data breach incidents. If you have received news that your information may have been exposed, you may be able to make a claim for compensation with us.

You do not have to have suffered a financial loss to be able to bring a legal case. You can be eligible to claim for any distress and suffering caused  by the exposure of your personal and sensitive information.

No Win, No Fee

We’re pleased to be able to offer No Win, No Fee representation for victims of the Lancaster University data breach incidents.

This allows you to be able to make a claim without having to have a generic private agreement in place where upfront fees are paid, or a bill for all legal costs is settled by you at the end of the case. Instead, we can take the case forward, and if the claim doesn’t succeed, we can waive the legal fees we’ve incurred, subject to your compliance with the terms and conditions.

You can speak to our team for free and friendly advice, and it’s all on a no-obligation basis to find out more about making a claim and how we may be able to assist you.
