Berman & Rabin $980,000 Data Breach Class Action Settlement
If Berman & Rabin sent you a notice that your personal information was exposed in their data breach, you can file a claim by August 27, 2026. You'll need to submit documentation of any losses to get up to $3,500, or you can claim a share of the remaining settlement fund even without documented losses.
Up to $3,500 for documented losses, or pro rata share of Net Settlement Fund for those without documented losses.
There are two options. If you have receipts or records showing money you spent or lost because of the breach, you can claim up to $3,500 (Cash Payment A). If you don't have documented losses, you can still claim a share of the Net Settlement Fund — the exact amount depends on how many people file valid claims.

What you need
You'll need to submit a Claim Form (online is fastest) with supporting documentation — things like receipts or financial records that show losses tied to the breach. Personal certifications, declarations, or affidavits don't qualify as documentation on their own.
How to file this claim
- Go to the claim form at https://www.bermanrabinsettlement.com/form/claim/

- If you're claiming documented losses, upload or attach your proof (receipts, bank statements, etc.)
- Submit your claim form before August 27, 2026
Documents you'll need
Watch out for
- Claim deadline is August 27, 2026 — missing it means no payment
- If you want to opt out instead, that deadline is earlier: August 12, 2026
- Objections to the settlement are also due August 12, 2026
- Personal statements and affidavits don't count as proof for documented-loss claims — you need actual receipts or records
- The notice says you must have been sent a data breach notification to be eligible — double-check you received one
