KP Law filed for a Group Litigation Order against PFEW

Our data breach team has applied for a Group Litigation Order against the Police Federation of England & Wales over a 2019 data breach and ransomware attack which targeted its headquarters.

Our firm currently represents over 12,500 officers across all ranks and service areas of the Police Force in relation to the severe data breach and ransomware attack targeting the Police Federation of England & Wales (PFEW) headquarters in 2019. On behalf of PFEW members, we have sought to resolve the issues from the data breach with PFEW but unfortunately have been unable to do so. We have now applied to the court for a Group Litigation Order, which will allow all PFEW members affected by the data breach to join our claim and fight for compensation from PFEW.

News of this has been published in MLex, 25 October 2022, and can be found here.
