Riley Pope & Laney LLC, a law firm operating in North and South Carolina, is facing a proposed class action in federal court due to a data breach that allegedly exposed consumers' personally identifiable information. The lawsuit claims that individuals with no affiliation to the firm have filed the suit, despite the firm's legal services being primarily aimed at corporations and employers who manage sensitive data. This case highlights the expanding scope of data breach litigation, as it extends beyond the firm's direct client base. Additionally, the Telephone Consumer Protection Act (TCPA) revocation of consent rule will take effect in April 2025, which may influence future class action cases related to consumer protection and privacy laws.
