Most cases have a minimum level of damages at the settlement stage, this would most likely be around £500 to £1,000.

However, it could be higher depending on the kind of case you have. The value of damages will also depend on the sensitivity of the data that was breached, e.g. If your medical records were stolen, compensation could be £6,000 and above.

It is important to note that data breach claims are still a niche area of claims, and this is reflected in the compensation awarded by the courts as it can be quite varied.

The specific compensation amount will depend on a series of factors including the level of distress/loss occurred, sensitivity of data etc.

This is why it is very important to make sure you have the best possible professional help to make sure your claim is as successful as possible.
