State records show PMA Consultants notified the New Hampshire Attorney General of a data breach on January 30, 2025. Affected individuals receive a formal notification letter by mail. That letter is proof your information was exposed — and the starting point for a free claim review.
The New Hampshire Attorney General filing confirms the breach notice — not a court case. Where no court record exists, no settlement figure or deadline is shown. Legal outcomes cannot be predicted or promised.
The official New Hampshire AG notice for PMA Consultants identifies the following exposed data:
These categories are what make the exposure actionable. Sensitive data types carry greater legal weight.
PMA Consultants is a prominent, specialized professional services firm operating primarily within the construction management, program management, and project controls sectors. Serving large public agencies, infrastructure developers, and major commercial enterprises, the firm coordinates complex, multi-million-dollar capital projects. In the course of executing these high-stakes operations, PMA Consultants routinely collects, processes, and stores an extensive volume of highly sensitive data. This includes comprehensive personnel records, confidential contractor agreements, detailed financial accounts, and proprietary engineering designs, positioning the organization as a vital custodian of sensitive corporate and personal information.
In 2025, PMA Consultants formally reported a significant cybersecurity incident to the New Hampshire Attorney General's office. While the precise mechanics of the breach are still under forensic evaluation, incidents impacting professional services firms and project management contractors typically involve sophisticated cyberattacks such as ransomware deployments, unauthorized intrusions into internal databases, or compromises of third-party vendor platforms. Because these companies manage sprawling digital ecosystems across multiple job sites and corporate offices, threat actors frequently target vulnerabilities in their network perimeters to exfiltrate vast repositories of confidential documents.
Preliminary indications suggest that the breach compromised a wide array of sensitive data categories, each carrying severe implications for the affected individuals. Exposed information likely includes full legal names, dates of birth, Social Security numbers, home addresses, banking details for direct deposit, and wage or compensation information typically found in payroll and human resources files. The exposure of Social Security numbers and financial account details creates an immediate, long-term risk of identity theft, fraudulent credit applications, and unauthorized bank withdrawals. Furthermore, compromised tax information can be weaponized by bad actors to file fraudulent tax returns, leaving victims to navigate complex recovery processes with federal and state agencies.
PMA Consultants, like all organizations handling sensitive personal and financial data, was bound by state data protection laws and common-law negligence standards to maintain robust cybersecurity safeguards. Under these legal frameworks, companies are required to implement adequate technical controls—such as multi-factor authentication, network segmentation, and regular vulnerability assessments—to prevent unauthorized access to personally identifiable information. The occurrence of a successful data breach of this magnitude strongly suggests a potential failure in these security obligations, raising serious questions regarding whether the firm deployed industry-standard measures to protect the confidential data entrusted to its care.
For current and former employees, contractors, and clients who have received a data breach notification letter from PMA Consultants, this correspondence serves as formal legal acknowledgment that your personal information was compromised due to corporate negligence. Legally, receiving this notice establishes the concrete injury and standing necessary to participate in a class action lawsuit aimed at holding the company accountable. Notably, victims are not required to show actual financial loss or identity theft to pursue a claim; simply having one's private data exposed to unauthorized parties is sufficient. Our law firm handles these complex data breach cases on a contingency fee basis, meaning you pay absolutely nothing out of pocket, and we only collect a fee if we successfully recover compensation on your behalf.
Financial harm is not a requirement. The exposure of your personal information is itself recognized as actionable. Check the list — most letter recipients qualify under at least one item:
You received a data breach notification letter from PMA Consultants
You were a customer, patient, employee, or client of PMA Consultants
Your personal information was stored in PMA Consultants's systems
Your Social Security number or driver's license number was exposed
Your financial account, credit card, or banking information was disclosed
You reside in the United States (all 50 states eligible)
That letter is legally required and confirms your data was exposed. It also gives you standing to file a claim.
What your notification letter means & what to do next →Do these four things as soon as possible; each one protects you and strengthens any claim:
Do not discard the PMA Consultants letter. It documents your standing as an affected individual — the foundation of any claim you file.
Activate the complimentary credit monitoring referenced in PMA Consultants's letter — early fraud detection and a documented harm record both help your claim.
Freeze your credit with Equifax, Experian and TransUnion. A freeze blocks new accounts from being opened in your name and can be lifted whenever you need to apply for credit.
Deadlines apply to breach claims. A free review of your PMA Consultants letter takes minutes, and we only get paid if you do.

Statute of limitations applies
Legal deadlines limit how long you have to act on this breach.
Breach victims may recover several categories of loss. What applies in the PMA Consultants matter depends on your state, the data involved, and the company's conduct.
States like New Hampshire may allow statutory damages per incident regardless of actual harm — California sets $100–$750 as the benchmark.
If the breach led to fraudulent charges or unauthorized transactions on your accounts, those losses are recoverable.
The time you lost to credit freezes, fraud disputes, and account monitoring counts as a recoverable inconvenience.
If you paid for credit monitoring or identity protection after the breach, those costs can be recovered.
SSN and driver's license exposure creates long-term identity theft risk. Courts recognize the ongoing value of this harm and may award damages accordingly.
Exposure of financial account or credit/debit card information entitles victims to recover for actual and potential fraud losses.
New Hampshire's breach notification law (RSA 359-C) requires timely notice to affected individuals and the Attorney General. New Hampshire residents may pursue civil action for actual damages and attorney's fees stemming from inadequate data protection.
These organizations also reported breaches to the New Hampshire Attorney General. If their letters reached you too, each may carry its own claim.
