What happened
CGP&H, LLC detected suspicious activity on its computer network and, working with third-party specialists, confirmed that an unauthorized actor had access to its environment between June 19 and June 20, 2025. According to the company, the intruder may have viewed or copied certain files before the network was secured. CGP&H reported the incident to federal law enforcement and filed notice with the Maine Attorney General.
CGP&H states that its file review concluded on May 7, 2026, identifying the individuals whose information was contained in the affected files, and that it began mailing notification letters on June 1, 2026. That puts roughly 12 months between the suspicious activity and individual notification, a delay our firm is evaluating. The company reports that the impacted files may have included names, Social Security numbers or Individual Taxpayer Identification Numbers, driver's license or state identification numbers, other government identification numbers, and financial account information. CGP&H has offered affected individuals 12 months of complimentary credit monitoring and identity protection services through Cyberscout, a TransUnion company.
Because the categories reported include Social Security numbers and financial account information, notice recipients may face an elevated risk of identity theft and financial fraud. CGP&H states it is not aware of any reports of fraud or identity theft tied to the incident at this time. Dapeer Law is reviewing whether affected individuals may be entitled to recover out of pocket costs, time spent addressing the breach, or other damages.

Common questions
I received a data breach letter from CGP&H. What should I do? +
Keep your notice letter, enroll in the free Cyberscout (TransUnion) credit monitoring before the deadline, consider placing a fraud alert or security freeze with the credit bureaus, monitor your bank, credit card, and retirement accounts, and contact a data breach attorney to understand your options. Because the reported data includes Social Security numbers, ongoing monitoring is advisable even if you have not yet seen suspicious activity.
Am I eligible to join a class action against CGP&H? +
Individuals who received a CGP&H breach notice letter are the most likely to qualify. Eligibility can also depend on your state of residence, the categories of your data that were exposed, and whether you have documented out of pocket costs or time spent addressing the breach.
How much money could I receive from a class action lawsuit? +
Data breach class action recoveries vary significantly. Settlements typically range from a few hundred dollars for basic out-of-pocket losses to several thousand dollars for documented identity theft, with class size, damages, and negotiation all affecting the final amount. No payout is guaranteed, and this investigation has not yet resulted in a settlement.
What personal information was exposed in the breach? +
CGP&H reported that the affected files may have included names, Social Security numbers or ITINs, driver's license or state ID numbers, other government identification numbers, and financial account information. The exact data varies by individual, so check your personal letter for the specifics that apply to you.
Did CGP&H offer free credit monitoring? +
Yes. CGP&H offered 12 months of complimentary credit monitoring and identity protection services through Cyberscout, a TransUnion company. Follow the enrollment instructions in your letter before the stated deadline. Enrolling does not waive your right to pursue a claim.

The total number of affected individuals was not clearly disclosed in the public filing. This page will be updated as more information becomes available through the Maine Attorney General filing or other sources.
Is there a deadline to take legal action? +
