Overview
A proposed settlement would resolve claims arising from a cyberattack involving American Vision Partners that was discovered in November 2023. The case is Hulewat et al. v. Medical Management Resource Group LLC d/b/a American Vision Partners, et al., No. 2:24-cv-00377-DJH, in the U.S. District Court for the District of Arizona. The defendants deny wrongdoing. The official website says approximately 1.6 million U.S. residents are in the broader injunctive-relief class and approximately 258,070 people are in the damages class eligible to submit claims for cash benefits.
Who qualifies
- You are a U.S. resident whose personal information was compromised in the November 2023 American Vision Partners data incident.
- To claim a cash benefit, you are among the approximately 258,070 damages class members whose Social Security number or other personal information was compromised.
- You are not within an exclusion listed in the court-authorized settlement documents.
What you could receive
Damages class members may choose either a pro rata cash payment or reimbursement of documented out-of-pocket losses reasonably traceable to the data incident, capped at $3,000 per claimant.

Separate cybersecurity changes are also part of the proposed settlement.
