Coulter & Tateoka Listed by DragonForce Ransomware Group

If you are a customer of Coulter & Tateoka, here’s what is being claimed, and what it would mean for you.

Coulter & Tateoka was listed on DragonForce's leak site. DragonForce claims to have stolen internal data. This is the group's claim, not a confirmed finding.

Coulter & Tateoka Listed by DragonForce Ransomware Group

On April 7, 2025, Coulter Tateoka Attorneys At Law appeared on the leak site of the dragonforce ransomware group. The Utah-based firm, which handles business, real estate, estate planning, and personal injury cases for individuals and small businesses, is claimed to have had internal files exfiltrated during a ransomware attack. Clients whose documents were stored with the firm now face the possibility that sensitive personal and financial information has been stolen and may be published or sold.

You can’t unleak data. You can take away what it’s worth.

A leaked record is where it starts, not where it ends. What turns it into your front door is the look-up sites publishing your address beside your name — and those are what an AI reads when somebody asks about you. The free scan shows you both. We write to 580 companies.

Reported Details of the Breach

Public reporting indicates that dragonforce listed Coulter Tateoka on its leak site and claims to have taken internal files. The exact number of affected individuals remains unknown, and the precise volume or specific types of documents has not been disclosed in available reporting. The firm’s location in Draper, Utah, and its focus on estate planning, real estate transactions, and personal injury matters mean that exposed records could include names, addresses, Social Security numbers, financial details, medical information, and legal correspondence for clients and their families.

April 7, 2025 marks the public listing date. No deadline for payment or further data publication has been confirmed in open sources, but ransomware groups routinely set such deadlines before releasing or auctioning stolen data.

Why This Matters for You and Your Family

When a law firm that holds your estate plans, property deeds, injury claims, or family financial records is breached, the fallout lands directly on ordinary people. Your private information can be used for identity theft, tax fraud, loan applications in your name, or targeted scams that reference real details from your legal files. Children named in guardianship documents or family trusts are also placed at risk, especially if their dates of birth or Social Security numbers appear alongside parental information.

Unverified claim — what this report is

This page documents a public listing on a ransomware/extortion group’s leak site, tracked via public threat-intelligence sources. A listing is the attacker’s claim. GalaxyWarden aggregates and reports such claims; we have not independently verified that a breach occurred, what data (if any) was taken, or the accuracy of anything the group asserts, and the named organisation has not necessarily confirmed the incident. Sections above describe what the listing shows and the group’s documented history — not verified findings about the named organisation. If you represent this organisation and believe anything here is inaccurate, tell us and we’ll review it promptly.

Editorial & sourcing policy

GalaxyWarden is a breach-monitoring service and news aggregator. We do not exfiltrate, host, purchase, or redistribute stolen data. Breach information is compiled from publicly accessible sources and threat-intelligence platforms, and is reported as claims attributed to their source. We promptly correct or remove material shown to be inaccurate — see our content & takedown policy or write to support@galaxywarden.com.
