Edelson Lechtzin LLP is offering free case evaluations while investigating potential data privacy claims tied to a Lincoln Investment Planning, LLC data breach. Lincoln Investment, a full-service broker-dealer and registered investment advisor, disclosed the incident to the Massachusetts Attorney General on September 17, 2026, reporting that at least 1,867 Massachusetts residents and 52 Vermont residents were affected, with additional individuals potentially impacted nationwide. The notice was issued on behalf of Capital Analysts of New England, Inc. and its affiliate Capital Analysts, LLC. Potentially exposed information includes names, Social Security numbers, financial account details, credit and debit card numbers, government-issued and driver's license numbers, and medical and health insurance information. Edelson Lechtzin is examining whether reasonable cybersecurity safeguards were in place and whether additional measures could have reduced the incident's effects. The firm says evaluations are free and confidential. Affected individuals are advised to preserve their notification letters, enroll in offered credit monitoring and identity theft protection within the stated 90-day deadline, monitor accounts and credit reports, consider fraud alerts or security freezes, beware of phishing, and understand rights under the federal Fair Credit Reporting Act.
