What happened
On July 27, 2025, MAS Law (formally Modjarrad & Associates, PC) detected suspicious activity on its computer network. A forensic investigation confirmed that an unauthorized party accessed certain systems between July 13 and July 28, 2025. MAS Law reported the incident to law enforcement and engaged a third-party cybersecurity firm to investigate the scope of the intrusion.
The firm completed its review of the affected data on April 20, 2026 and filed notice with the Maine Attorney General on May 20, 2026, more than ten months after the breach was discovered. The public notice states that personal information including names, contact information, and other sensitive personal details may have been present in the compromised systems. The firm's filing does not publicly itemize all specific categories of data involved beyond those listed. Impacted individuals are being offered complimentary identity monitoring services through Kroll, with enrollment instructions provided in the individual mailed notice.
Because MAS Law is a legal services firm, affected individuals may have had sensitive personal and legal matter information on file. Whether the firm's pre-breach security practices met applicable legal standards, and whether the ten-month notification delay caused additional harm to affected individuals, are among the issues being evaluated.
