Foley & Lardner LLP OBO Ericsson Inc was responsible for safeguarding the personal data of its customers and employees. According to a IN state filing, Foley & Lardner LLP OBO Ericsson Inc experienced a data security incident affecting an undisclosed number of individuals, exposing Social Security Numbers and other sensitive identifiers. This case remains active and individuals are still being identified.
The data held by Foley & Lardner LLP OBO Ericsson Inc — like that of most organizations that collect customer information — represents a comprehensive profile of affected individuals that, once assembled by bad actors, enables a range of fraudulent activities. The value of this data persists long after the breach is publicly disclosed, and vigilance is warranted for years following an exposure.
This filing does not specify data types. Based on Foley & Lardner LLP OBO Ericsson Inc's industry:
Exposed Social Security Numbers can be used to open fraudulent credit accounts, file false tax returns, and commit federal benefits fraud — often for years before detection.
Combined with a name and other leaked data, date of birth helps criminals pass identity verification questions at banks and government agencies.
Your email being connected to this breach makes you a high-value phishing target. Watch for impersonation attempts referencing the company or the breach.
Home address exposure can enable mail theft, package fraud, and targeted phishing attacks that reference your known location.
You may have been affected by the Foley & Lardner LLP OBO Ericsson Inc data breach if:
Common categories of compensation in data breach class actions
Courts recognize that the time spent monitoring accounts, placing credit freezes, and dealing with the aftermath of a breach has real economic value. This category of damages is recoverable even without direct financial loss.
Professional credit monitoring services cost $10–$40 per month. Identity theft restoration services, if needed, can cost hundreds of hours and thousands of dollars. Courts have awarded these costs as direct damages in SSN breach cases.
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.
Applicable State Law
This breach was reported under the Indiana data breach notification law, which mandates notification and establishes your right to seek damages.
No. Under Indiana data breach notification law 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.
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 Foley & Lardner LLP OBO Ericsson Inc 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 Foley & Lardner LLP OBO Ericsson Inc during the relevant period, you may still qualify even without receiving a letter. A free eligibility review can confirm your status.
Most data breach class actions resolve within 18 to 36 months, though timelines vary by court and complexity. Your participation requires minimal effort — typically completing a claim form. Our office handles all litigation; you are notified when a settlement is reached.
