Check My Rights →Clarkston Chiropractic Sports & Wellness was responsible for safeguarding the personal data of its customers and employees. According to a IL state filing, Clarkston Chiropractic Sports & Wellness experienced a data security incident affecting an undisclosed number of individuals, exposing protected health information and medical records. Legal proceedings relating to this breach are ongoing.
Clarkston Chiropractic Sports & Wellness was required under the Illinois Personal Information Protection Act (PIPA) to implement reasonable security measures to protect the personal information it collected. When those measures fail and personal data is exposed to unauthorized parties, the law provides remedies for affected individuals — regardless of whether those individuals have yet experienced fraud or identity theft as a direct result.
Clarkston Chiropractic Sports & Wellness appears to be a specialized healthcare provider focused on chiropractic care, sports injuries, and physical wellness. In the regular course of providing patient care, the organization typically collects and stores sensitive personal and medical data, including names, dates of birth, medical history, diagnosis information, and health insurance details. Official records indicate that a data breach affecting this information was reported to the Illinois Attorney General in 2025. Following the discovery of the incident, affected individuals were mailed official data breach notification letters detailing the event and outlining steps they can take to protect their personal information. If you received one of these letters, it means your private healthcare and identifying records may have been exposed during the security incident.
Based on the data types reported in this filing, affected individuals face the following specific risks:
Your SSN is the master key to your identity. Once exposed, criminals can open new lines of credit, take out loans, or file taxes in your name.
Combined with a name and other leaked data, date of birth helps criminals pass identity verification questions at banks and government agencies.
Under the Illinois Personal Information Protection Act (PIPA), you may have a legal claim against Clarkston Chiropractic Sports & Wellness if any of the following apply:
Applicable law: This breach was reported under the Illinois Personal Information Protection Act (PIPA), which establishes your right to seek damages from Clarkston Chiropractic Sports & Wellness.
The hours spent responding to a data breach — canceling accounts, contacting credit bureaus, updating passwords, and investigating fraud — represent compensable economic harm in data breach litigation.
Once your SSN is exposed, protection becomes an ongoing expense. Plaintiffs in data breach settlements have recovered costs for credit freezes, identity protection subscriptions, and time spent dealing with fraudulent accounts — sometimes covering multiple years of exposure.
HIPAA violations carry civil penalties between $100 and $50,000 per violation. Where a healthcare organization's negligence led to the exposure of protected health information, class members may recover statutory damages in addition to actual losses.
Data breach victims regularly report anxiety, loss of sleep, and ongoing fear of identity theft. These non-economic harms are cognizable injuries in data breach litigation, particularly in cases involving SSN or medical record exposure.
No. Under Illinois Personal Information Protection Act (PIPA) and federal law, the unauthorized exposure of your personal data — regardless of whether it has been actively misused — can be sufficient grounds for a claim. The breach itself is the injury.
Nothing. The Law Office of David S. Harris handles data breach cases on contingency — you pay zero upfront and owe nothing unless compensation is recovered.
Immediately place a free credit freeze at all three bureaus (Equifax, Experian, TransUnion). A freeze blocks new accounts from being opened in your name. Then file a complaint with the FTC at IdentityTheft.gov and contact our office — SSN exposure is one of the most serious breach types.
If Clarkston Chiropractic Sports & Wellness is a covered healthcare entity or business associate under HIPAA, affected patients have additional rights — including the right to an HHS complaint. These HIPAA violations also strengthen civil damages claims. Consult an attorney to understand your full remedies.
Statutes of limitations for data breach claims vary by state but typically run 2–4 years. Depending on when you learned of the breach, you may still have time. Contact our office for a free eligibility review — there is no cost to find out.
Accepting free credit monitoring from Clarkston Chiropractic Sports & Wellness does not waive your right to pursue legal action unless you signed a specific release waiving claims. In most cases, victims who accepted monitoring can still file.
Not necessarily. Many data breach victims are never notified directly. If your personal information was held by Clarkston Chiropractic Sports & Wellness during the relevant period, you may still qualify even without receiving a letter. A free eligibility review can confirm your status.
