Cascade Coffee, LLC was the subject of a data breach notification filed with the WA Attorney General. The AG filing was recorded on August 26, 2026.
From the AG filing description
Cascade Coffee, LLC operates as a prominent commercial beverage manufacturer, roaster, and supply chain partner within the food and beverage sector. As an enterprise managing large-scale procurement, extensive warehousing, and intricate distribution networks, the company collects and maintains a vast repository of sensitive information. Beyond standard commercial records, Cascade Coffee, LLC holds deep personnel files, payroll accounts, vendor banking details, and proprietary operational data. The organization is entrusted with substantial volumes of personally identifiable information belonging to its workforce, seasonal contractors, corporate partners, and regional supply chain networks, making its digital infrastructure a high-value repository for malicious actors seeking lucrative targets. In 2026, Cascade Coffee, LLC formally reported a significant security incident to the Washington Attorney General's office, raising urgent concerns among its employees, vendors, and business associates. While the precise mechanics of the intrusion are still being uncovered through forensic investigations, breaches affecting major manufacturing and supply chain entities typically involve sophisticated cyberattacks such as ransomware deployment, unauthorized access to internal enterprise resource planning (ERP) databases, or vulnerabilities exploited within third-party vendor networks. These threat vectors allow cybercriminals to bypass perimeter defenses, infiltrate centralized servers, and exfiltrate confidential files before security teams can contain the threat or deploy countermeasures. The exposure resulting from the Cascade Coffee, LLC data breach compromises critical categories of sensitive information, exposing victims to severe, long-term risks. Compromised data sets likely include full legal names, Social Security numbers, dates of birth, home addresses, direct deposit and banking information, and wage or tax compensation records. When Social Security numbers and banking details are compromised, victims face an immediate and persistent threat of identity theft, fraudulent credit card applications, unauthorized loans, and tax fraud. Furthermore, the theft of direct deposit information can lead to immediate financial loss and devastating disruptions to victims' personal financial security. As an enterprise operating within Washington state and engaging in interstate commerce, Cascade Coffee, LLC had clear legal obligations under the Washington Data Breach Notification Act and applicable federal privacy standards to implement and maintain robust, reasonable cybersecurity safeguards. These statutory mandates require businesses that collect and store sensitive personal data to utilize advanced encryption, multi-factor authentication, rigorous access controls, and continuous network monitoring. The occurrence of a successful cyberattack capable of exfiltrating deeply private records strongly indicates potential failures in adhering to these standard security duties, raising serious questions regarding whether the company's protective measures were adequate to withstand modern threat landscapes. Receiving an official data breach notification letter from Cascade Coffee, LLC serves as formal legal confirmation that your confidential personal information was compromised due to corporate security shortcomings. Under modern class action jurisprudence, the receipt of such a notification letter establishes legal standing to pursue claims against the company for negligence, breach of implied contract, and failure to protect sensitive data, without requiring proof that financial fraud has already occurred. Our firm is actively investigating potential class action litigation on behalf of affected individuals. We handle all data breach claims on a strict contingency fee basis, meaning you pay absolutely nothing out of pocket, and there are no attorney fees unless we successfully recover compensation for you.
You may have been affected by the Cascade Coffee, LLC data breach if:
Common categories of compensation in data breach class actions
The hours spent responding to a data breach — canceling accounts, contacting credit bureaus, updating passwords, and investigating fraud — represent compensable economic harm in data breach litigation.
Once your SSN is exposed, protection becomes an ongoing expense. Plaintiffs in data breach settlements have recovered costs for credit freezes, identity protection subscriptions, and time spent dealing with fraudulent accounts — sometimes covering multiple years of exposure.
Fees charged to close and reopen accounts, issue replacement cards, or dispute fraudulent transactions are recoverable in data breach litigation. So are the costs of overdrafts, late payments, and credit damage caused by unauthorized activity.
Several state data breach laws provide for statutory minimum damages — fixed amounts recoverable per affected individual regardless of actual loss. These provisions exist specifically to make legal action viable for victims who have not yet experienced direct harm.
Note: an attorney general breach filing does not by itself establish a settlement fund, a payment amount, or a claim deadline. If an official settlement notice is later issued, rely on that notice for payment details and deadlines.
Applicable State Law
This breach was reported under the Washington My Health MY Data Act, which mandates notification and establishes your right to seek damages.
No. Under Washington My Health MY Data Act and federal law, the unauthorized exposure of your personal data — regardless of whether it has been actively misused — can be sufficient grounds for a claim. The breach itself is the injury.
Nothing. The Law Office of David S. Harris handles data breach cases on contingency — you pay zero upfront and owe nothing unless compensation is recovered.
Immediately place a free credit freeze at all three bureaus (Equifax, Experian, TransUnion). A freeze blocks new accounts from being opened in your name. Then file a complaint with the FTC at IdentityTheft.gov and contact our office — SSN exposure is one of the most serious breach types.
Banks may reverse fraudulent charges, but they are not obligated to compensate you for time lost, stress, or indirect damages. A class action claim against the breached company can recover those additional categories of harm.
State statutes of limitations for data breach claims typically run 2–4 years from the date of the breach or its discovery. Because this breach was recently disclosed, the window is open — but acting early preserves your options and strengthens the case.
Accepting free credit monitoring from Cascade Coffee, LLC does not waive your right to pursue legal action unless you signed a specific release waiving claims. In most cases, victims who accepted monitoring can still file.
Not necessarily. Many data breach victims are never notified directly. If your personal information was held by Cascade Coffee, LLC during the relevant period, you may still qualify even without receiving a letter. A free eligibility review can confirm your status.
