Proof Required?
A mortgage application leaves a remarkable amount of your life in one company's hands, which is what makes this breach worth a claim. McLean Mortgage sent notice letters after a data incident, and that letter is the whole eligibility test. Documented out-of-pocket expenses are reimbursed up to $1,000, for losses between October 17, 2024 and December 10, 2026. Credit report fees, credit freezes and replacing identity documents all count. An alternative cash payment is there for anyone who would rather not assemble paperwork. The case is In re McLean Data Breach Litigation in the Eastern District of Virginia. Claims close December 10, 2026.

Who Is Eligible?

You may be eligible to file a claim if you:

  • You were sent a notice letter about the data incident. That letter is the eligibility test.
  • A mortgage application is the usual route in, which is why the exposed information tends to be extensive.

How Much Can You Get?

  • Documented out-of-pocket losses, up to $1,000. Credit report fees, the cost of freezing and unfreezing credit, replacing identity documents, and losses from fraud. Losses must fall between October 17, 2024 and December 10, 2026, and you need the paperwork.
  • Or the alternative cash payment instead. No receipts to assemble. You take one route or the other, not both.
