About Your Lawyers and the Virgin Media data breach action
Your Lawyers launched its Virgin Media data breach group action for justice when news of the monumental cybersecurity leak hit the headlines earlier this year.
Since then, we have featured in the news to talk about potential estimated compensation amounts of up to £5,000.00. We have also taken forward many cases and we now represent a large group of victims affected by the breach.
If you have yet to start your case and you want to know a little more about us and the action that we have launched, here’s some further information for you.
Confidential information was leaked in the Virgin Media data breach
One of the primary reasons that we’re able to take action for victims of the Virgin Media data breach is because confidential information was exposed.
When a data breach like this happens, the victims can be entitled to claim compensation. The law can allow you to receive damages for the loss of control of your private information, and that’s what we have launched our action for. If applicable, claims for losses and expenses can also be included too.
As a leading firm of consumer action and data breach compensation lawyers, here’s how we can help you.

How we value data breach claims
We’ve talked to the media a lot about our Virgin Media data breach action and what people could claim for, but how do we value data breach claims?
Each case is different, and we do need to account for the individual factors that can be unique depending on the nature of the case. It can also depend on the person as well, as we need to factor in the personal impact which can differ from person to person.
We’ve put initial potential estimated pay-outs at up to £5,000.00 per claimant, making a provisional total amount of £4.5bn for this action. Here’s a little guidance on how we approach valuing cases so you can understand what we account for when settling claims.

Virgin Media data incident: advice for victims
If you have been affected by the Virgin Media data incident, what can you do about it and how can we help you?
We’re representing a huge number of people for No Win, No Fee legal cases, and we may be able to help you too. Any fine from the Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO) isn’t designed to be used as compensation for victims, and money from penalties usually ends up in the public purse. For the victims to receive justice for what has happened, a separate legal case needs to be made and we’ve launched a group compensation action for people to come together.
There’s strength in numbers. With our unique expertise in this complex and niche area of law, we may be able to represent you for a case on a No Win, No Fee basis.
