Trinity Petroleum Management, LLC was the subject of a data breach notification filed with the NH Attorney General. The AG filing was recorded on March 12, 2025.
From the AG filing description
Trinity Petroleum Management, LLC operates within the complex, high-stakes energy sector, managing vital operations, asset logistics, financial accounting, and landowner royalty distributions. Because of its central role in energy management, the company routinely collects and maintains a vast repository of sensitive information. This includes exhaustive records for employees, independent contractors, mineral rights owners, and corporate partners. The data held by firms of this type is exceptionally comprehensive, often bridging commercial records with deeply personal and financial documentation necessary for payroll, land leasing, tax reporting, and regulatory compliance. In 2025, Trinity Petroleum Management, LLC reported a significant data security incident to the New Hampshire Attorney General's office. While the precise mechanics of the breach are still under active investigation, attacks on energy sector management firms typically involve sophisticated cyber threats such as unauthorized database access, ransomware deployments, or third-party vendor compromises. These incidents often exploit vulnerabilities in administrative networks, allowing malicious actors to infiltrate internal systems and siphon off confidential files before security protocols can neutralize the threat. Investigations into breaches of this nature frequently reveal the exposure of highly sensitive personally identifiable information (PII) and financial records. For individuals associated with Trinity Petroleum Management, LLC, the compromised data likely includes full names, Social Security numbers, dates of birth, banking and direct deposit details, and tax documentation. The exposure of this information creates severe, long-term risks. Social Security numbers and dates of birth serve as the keys to identity theft, enabling cybercriminals to open fraudulent credit accounts, secure loans, or intercept government tax refunds. Furthermore, compromised banking and direct deposit information directly threatens victims' immediate financial security, exposing them to unauthorized withdrawals and account takeovers. As an entity handling sensitive personal and financial data, Trinity Petroleum Management, LLC was bound by rigorous legal obligations under state data protection statutes and common law standards of care. These laws mandate the implementation of reasonable security measures—such as robust encryption, multi-factor authentication, and regular vulnerability assessments—to safeguard confidential information against unauthorized access. A data breach of this scale strongly indicates a potential failure to maintain these required security safeguards, raising serious questions about whether the company neglected its duty to protect the private data entrusted to its care. Receiving a formal data breach notification letter from Trinity Petroleum Management, LLC is a legal acknowledgement that your personal information was compromised due to their corporate security failure. Under modern legal standards, the receipt of this letter establishes the legal standing necessary to participate in a class action lawsuit, and courts have consistently held that victims do not need to wait until they suffer actual financial loss to seek legal recourse. Our firm is currently investigating potential class action claims on behalf of affected individuals. We handle these cases on a strict contingency fee basis, meaning you pay nothing out of pocket and owe no legal fees unless we successfully recover compensation on your behalf.
Under the New Hampshire data breach notification law, you may have a legal claim against Trinity Petroleum Management, LLC if any of the following apply:
Based on the data types reported in this filing:
Your SSN is the master key to your identity. Once exposed, criminals can open new lines of credit, take out loans, or file taxes in your name.
Combined with a name and other leaked data, date of birth helps criminals pass identity verification questions at banks and government agencies.
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.
Direct financial losses resulting from the breach — unauthorized charges, fraudulent transfers, or fees incurred through fraud — are recoverable as compensatory damages. Banks may reverse some charges; a class action recovers the remainder and associated costs.
Data breach victims regularly report anxiety, loss of sleep, and ongoing fear of identity theft. These non-economic harms are cognizable injuries in data breach litigation, particularly in cases involving SSN or medical record exposure.
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.
No. Under New Hampshire 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.
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.
Statutes of limitations for data breach claims vary by state but typically run 2–4 years. Depending on when you learned of the breach, you may still have time. Contact our office for a free eligibility review — there is no cost to find out.
Accepting free credit monitoring from Trinity Petroleum Management, 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 Trinity Petroleum Management, LLC during the relevant period, you may still qualify even without receiving a letter. A free eligibility review can confirm your status.
