Investigation notes

Perkins Coie LLP filed notice with Indiana authorities on June 3, 2026, regarding a data security incident targeting its systems. This filing indicates that an unauthorized party gained access to systems containing personal information, with the breach event starting on January 26, 2026. The specific type of breach, such as a cyberattack or system intrusion, has not been detailed in the public record.

The official report confirms that personal information was involved, though it does not specify which categories of data were exposed. This lack of specificity means individuals should consider all their personal data potentially at risk. The notice was filed approximately four months after the initial breach date, raising questions about the timeliness of discovery and notification to affected parties.

Our investigation focuses on Perkins Coie LLP's security protocols leading up to January 26, 2026. We examine whether reasonable safeguards were in place to protect sensitive data and how long the unauthorized access persisted. Understanding these factors is crucial for evaluating the company's compliance with data protection standards.

If you received a notification letter from Perkins Coie LLP, review it carefully for any specific instructions or offers. Be vigilant about unsolicited communications, especially those asking for personal details. Consider monitoring your existing accounts for unusual activity as a general precaution.

We look at whether Perkins Coie LLP used reasonable security, how long it kept the data, and how quickly it told the people affected. Those questions decide whether a class action or individual claim is possible. Read more on how ransomware lawsuits work, or browse other incident files in IN.
