In August, The Data Breach Times reported a data breach involving UnitedLex that raised questions about their security and incident response. The article also noted a lawsuit that was filed by a former employee.
This week, the Kansas City Business Journal reports another lawsuit stemming from that breach. This one reportedly:
accuses UnitedLex of negligence and breach of fiduciary duty. It wants the court to order UnitedLex to invest in measures that will better protect clients’ sensitive information. The suit also seeks actual damages, attorney fees, court costs and prejudgment interest.
UnitedLex has not filed an official answer to the complaint and declined to comment due to the pending litigation.
