Ngozi Emerokwam, et al. v. 8am LLC d/b/a Docketwise

11th Judicial Circuit Court for Miami-Dade County, Florida - Case No. 2026-011702-CA-01

A court authorized this Settlement Website. You are not being sued. This is not a solicitation from a lawyer.

 


 

Were you sent Notice that your personally identifiable information may have been involved in a Data Incident at 8am LLC d/b/a Docketwise in or around October 2025? You may be eligible for benefits from a class action Settlement.

 


 

  • A Settlement has been reached with 8am, LLC d/b/a Docketwise (the “Defendant” or “Docketwise”) in a class action lawsuit about a data incident that occurred in or around October 2025, resulting in cybercriminals accessing the credentials to one of Docketwise’s third-party partner repositories (the “Data Incident”) and potentially acquiring the personally identifiable information (“PII”) of current and former customers of companies that use Docketwise’s services. The Plaintiffs allege negligence/negligence per se, breach of implied contract, and unjust enrichment. Docketwise denies Plaintiffs' claims and any liability or wrongdoing.

     

     

  • The Settlement Class includes all living individuals residing in the United States who were sent Notice, including notice of this Settlement, that their PII may have been involved in the Data Incident.

     

     

  • Under the proposed Settlement, Docketwise will provide Settlement benefits to Settlement Class Members: (1) reimbursement of documented out-of-pocket and/or lost time (up to $5,000 per person), (2) an Alternative Cash Payment of $50. In addition, Settlement Class Members may receive two (2) years of Credit Monitoring Services. In addition, Docketwise has agreed to pay Notice and Administrative Expenses, Court-approved Fee Award and Expenses, and Service Awards.

     

     

  • Your rights are affected whether you do or do not act. Please read this Settlement Website carefully.
