Edelson Lechtzin LLP is investigating potential data privacy claims related to a POLAM Federal Credit Union breach that the institution learned about on or about May 20, 2025. A former employee allegedly accessed and obtained specific documents from the credit union’s system, while third-party cybersecurity professionals determined that personal information may have been exposed. Potentially affected data includes names, addresses, Social Security numbers, payment-card and financial-account information, government identification numbers, loan and passport numbers, and medical information. Individuals who received breach notifications may face heightened risks of identity theft and fraud. The firm is evaluating a possible class action and offers a no-cost review of rights and potential claims. It advises affected individuals to monitor account statements and credit reports, preserve breach notices, confirm whether their information was involved, and consider fraud alerts and credit monitoring.
