What Happened?
According to the company’s public notice, it determined in October 2025 that credentials to one of its third-party partner repositories may have been accessed. The notice says a forensic investigation later confirmed that an unauthorized actor used valid credentials to clone certain third-party partner repositories that were used in a data migration pipeline for the application, which contained law firm records including personal information.
The notice also states there was no evidence of ongoing unauthorized activity and no evidence that personally identifiable information had been published. It further says the FBI was notified and that, after a review of the impacted data, certain personal information belonging to clients of a small portion of its law firm customers was determined to have been subject to unauthorized acquisition.
What Information Was Exposed?
The public notice says the information potentially impacted varied by individual. It may have included some or all of the following:

- Government identification number or tax identification number
- Health insurance information
