If You Previously Received a Notice Stating You Were Impacted by the Ransomware Attack Perpetrated on Penhall Company, You Are Eligible to Receive Payments from a Class Action Settlement
A Court has authorized this website. This is not a solicitation from a lawyer.

To be eligible to make a Settlement Claim, you must be a Person in the United States and must have previously been mailed a notification from Penhall Company ("Penhall") that your information may have been impacted in the Ransomware Attack discovered on December 28, 2022.

Plaintiffs further claim that, as a result of the Ransomware Attack, the criminals gained access to Plaintiffs’ and the Settlement Class Members’ personally identifiable information, including, but not limited to, names, driver’s licenses, dates of birth, and Social Security Numbers (collectively, “PII”).
● Defendants deny any wrongdoing and deny that they have any liability but have agreed to settle the Litigation on a class-wide basis.
Under the Settlement Agreement, Settlement Class Members will be eligible to receive:
- Reimbursement for any documented out-of-pocket expenses, not to exceed $500 per Settlement Class Member; lost time spent dealing with the Ransomware Attack up to three (3) hours at $25 per hour; and extraordinary losses of proven monetary loss for up to $10,000 per Settlement Class Member as a result of the Ransomware Attack
