Making sure you are fully compensated for any data breaches or online offences
Our job is to make sure people get the support they need after their data has been put at risk and ensure organisations take their responsibilities seriously. We can help clients to claim for both the financial and emotional impact of a breach.
We have decades of combined experience helping our clients secure the justice they deserve. Our solicitors work tirelessly to ensure the best possible outcome for you. Both in terms of damages achieved and service delivered.
Education is key to minimising the impact of data breaches
We know that pursuing compensation can seem intimidating, particularly following a data breach or another online offence where people often have little understanding of the laws involved.
However, when you work with us, we will demystify the process for you and make things as simple and stress-free as we can. We remove the jargon from the compensation process and keep in regular contact, so you always know just what’s happening with your claim.
You stay in control
An innovative practice, we have invested heavily in client education. Our goal is to make sure our clients have as much information as possible before claiming and feel fully informed at all times. In addition, we provide a wide range of information to help our clients protect themselves once a breach has occurred.

Making a data breach compensation or cybercrime claim
If you want to make a data breach compensation claim, contact Hayes Connor Solicitors ASAP. We’ll advise you on whether you have a valid claim, answer any questions you might have and go through your options with you. Our process is fully compliant with ICO guidance, and we never put your details at risk.
In data breach cases, we’ll contact the organisation in question. We’ll also use any information provided by the ICO to check if you have had your data breached (if the company has not admitted as much already).
When we have established the extent of the data privacy failing, we’ll start the claims procedure on your behalf. We’ll only do this with your explicit agreement.
In cybercrime cases, we’ll investigate your case, gather together the relevant paperwork and evidence, and make sure all the necessary court forms are filled in on time.
