The Siegel Group Data Breach Class Action Investigation

At Console & Associates, our data breach lawyers are closely examining the recent The Siegel Group data breach. This data breach was disclosed following a cyber security incident at The Siegel Group, which may have affected numerous individuals, potentially exposing sensitive personal identifiable information including names, Social Security numbers, dates of birth, passport information, and financial data.

What Happened?

A recent report from the Vermont Attorney General's office states that The Siegel Group data breach occurred due to a cyber security incident. Security monitoring systems detected unusual network activity on February 2, 2025, prompting an investigation. The subsequent forensic analysis revealed that unauthorized access to their computer network occurred over a five-day period between January 28, 2025 and February 2, 2025.

During this window of vulnerability, threat actors gained access to confidential files and may have exfiltrated significant amounts of sensitive consumer data. The exposed information varies by individual but could include names, Social Security numbers, dates of birth, passport numbers, state identification cards, alien registration numbers, direct deposit account numbers, signatures, and medical information.

Data breach notification letters were sent out by The Siegel Group on March 31, 2025, informing affected individuals about the nature of the incident and specifically which categories of their personal data were compromised in the security breach.
