Two clean claims to check now

Two clean claims to check now

This week’s settlement radar separates closing July reminders from fresh September claims, led by ABC Legal’s estimated $50 no-document cash option and Lighthouse Electric’s $60 alternative payment.

Closing this week

The deadlines that deserve attention first are July 21, July 24, and July 27. Two are carryover reminders, and one is a newly surfaced Farmers Insurance case. None is a reason to file outside the eligibility rules.
  • Cosequin dog supplements: July 21. This is California-only and was already flagged last week. California residents who bought certain Cosequin products for dogs between May 3, 2016 and May 6, 2022 may claim up to $150, described as $25 per qualifying unit. Use the official Cosequin settlement site before the deadline. 1
  • Farmers Insurance telemarketing: July 24. This is a different Farmers case from the September-deadline claim covered earlier. The Starling settlement covers people with a personal phone number who received at least two calls or texts from Todd Henderson Insurance Agency or R. Todd Henderson during the relevant period, after the number had been on the National Do Not Call Registry for more than 30 days. The estimated payment is up to $425, but the claim is notice-gated and the settlement listing marks proof as required. The official claim-form PDF is the direct filing path. 2 Treat this as a two-minute notice check, not a public claim anyone can file.
  • Amazon Prime FTC settlement: July 27. This previously covered settlement still appears open on the current settlement directory. The directory lists a payment of up to $51, no proof requirement, and the official settlement website. 3 If you have not handled it, search your email for the settlement notice and file only if the notice or the official eligibility questions fit you.
The current issue's new picks start below. They have later deadlines, but they are more useful than forcing a weak July item into the main list.

ABC Legal Services data breachUS residents whose personal information was potentially compromised in the August 2024 incident, including people who received a breach notice. 4Estimated $50 pro rata; the official FAQ says it may move up or down, up to $450. 5No documentation for the pro-rata cash option.

Lighthouse Electric data breachUS residents whose personal information was allegedly involved in the October 2024 breach, generally identified by a settlement notice. 6Expected alternative cash payment: $60. Documented losses are a separate, proof-heavy option up to $2,750. 6No proof for the $60 option, but the online path uses the notice login ID and PIN. 7Lighthouse claim formSeptember 14, 2026
Emanate Health pixel tracking, California onlyCalifornia residents who logged into the Emanate portal, submitted an online form, or scheduled an appointment on Emanate's website from August 30, 2019 through April 30, 2024. 8The official FAQ estimates about $11 if every class member claims, or about $55 at a 20% claim rate. 8The claim page starts with the settlement Claim ID from the email or postcard; no receipt upload is shown on the three-step entry page. 9Emanate claim formSeptember 29, 2026
The lawsuit is In re: ABC Legal Services Data Security Incident, Case No. 2:24-cv-02092, in the US District Court for the Western District of Washington. The claim alleges that ABC Legal Services failed to protect personal information involved in a data security incident that began around August 7, 2024. ABC denies wrongdoing, and the court has not decided the allegations. 4
The settlement class is broader than a named-customer list: it covers US residents whose personal information was potentially compromised, including people who received an incident notice. The official FAQ says the settlement fund is $2.5 million. The ordinary cash option is a pro-rata payment estimated at $50. It may be higher or lower depending on the number of approved claims, with the FAQ giving a possible range up to $450. 5
The important distinction is between the ordinary cash option and the documented-loss option. The $50 estimate does not require documentation. A separate request for up to $5,000 in out-of-pocket losses requires supporting records, such as receipts or other documentation tied to the incident. That second lane does not fit a five-minute claim unless you already have the records.
The claim deadline is September 28, 2026. The official FAQ says online or mailed Claim Forms must be submitted by that date, and approved claimants can choose an electronic payment or a paper check. The settlement remains proposed, with a final approval hearing scheduled for October 26, 2026. 4
Five-minute value check: Start at the ABC Legal settlement website. The official site does not publish a formal screen count, so allow about three actions: open the claim entry point, complete the online form, and choose a payment method. File the pro-rata cash option only if the class definition fits you. The possible $450 ceiling is not the expected check.

2. Lighthouse Electric: $60 if the notice is in hand

The case is Wilber Brown and Jeffrey Gerken v. Lighthouse Electric Company, Inc., Case No. CV-2026-01588, in the Court of Common Pleas of Washington County, Pennsylvania. The lawsuit alleges that files containing personal information were exposed in an October 2024 incident involving Lighthouse Electric's computer systems. The company denies wrongdoing, and the court has not decided the claims. 6
The class definition reaches US residents whose personally identifiable information was allegedly involved in the incident, including people who received notice. The official FAQ offers two cash choices. A claimant with documented losses can request up to $2,750, but that path requires bank statements, receipts, or similar proof. The alternative cash option is expected to be $60 and does not require proof or an explanation. 6
The tradeoff is access. ClassAction.org reports that online filing uses the login ID and PIN printed on the settlement notice. If you have that notice, the $60 option is a reasonable five-minute check. If you do not, do not invent eligibility or spend time trying to force the form. The settlement website also offers a paper form, but it is still a notice-based claim process. 7
The claim deadline is September 14, 2026. The settlement is still awaiting final approval, with a hearing scheduled for October 29, 2026. 6
Five-minute value check: Search email and physical mail for Lighthouse Electric, the settlement administrator, or a notice containing a login ID and PIN. If you find it, use the direct claim form, select the alternative cash option, submit, and save the confirmation. Do not select the documented-loss lane unless you can substantiate the expense.

3. Emanate Health: a California-only, small-dollar check

This one should not be counted as a national opportunity. It is useful only for California residents who used an Emanate Health patient portal, submitted an online form, or scheduled an appointment on Emanate's public website between August 30, 2019 and April 30, 2024. The lawsuit, Ortega, et al. v. Emanate Health Medical Center, Case No. 22STCV28142, is pending in the Superior Court of Los Angeles County. Plaintiffs allege that website analytics tools, including the Meta Pixel, disclosed personal or health-related information to third parties. Emanate denies the allegations. 8
The official FAQ is unusually candid about the math. The gross settlement is $777,000, with an estimated net fund of $433,709 after listed expenses and awards. If every class member submits a valid claim, the FAQ estimates about $11 each. If 20% claim, it estimates about $55 each. Those are scenarios, not a promise, and the amount can change with participation and court-approved deductions. 8
The claim deadline is September 29, 2026. The official claim page shows three stages: Submit a Claim, Claimant Information, and Confirmation. It asks for the Settlement Claim ID shown on the email or postcard. The page does not show a receipt-upload step. If you cannot find the Claim ID, the page directs you to contact the administrator rather than guessing. 9
Five-minute value check: California readers should search for the Emanate notice first. At an estimated $11 to $55, this is only worth a few minutes if the Claim ID is easy to find. The settlement is proposed, with a final approval hearing scheduled for November 19, 2026. 8

Notice-only checks: Aspire and DATS

These are legitimate-looking, court-authorized settlement sites with open claim windows, but they are not broad public claims. Include them only if the relevant notice is already in your mail or inbox.
Aspire Health Alliance. The case is Joan Tozzi v. South Shore Mental Health Center, Inc. d/b/a Aspire Health Alliance, Case No. 2484CV02307, in the Superior Court of Suffolk County, Massachusetts. The class is made up of living individuals who were sent a notice that their information may have been affected by the September 2023 incident. 10
Aspire's $400,000 fund provides one year of medical data monitoring. The documented-loss option can reimburse up to $2,500 with receipts or similar records. If you do not submit a documented-loss claim, the official FAQ says you will automatically receive a pro-rata cash payment, but it does not publish a dollar estimate. The claim deadline is September 16, 2026. 11 The claim form requires the notice login ID and PIN; searching for that notice is the five-minute task. 12
Drug and Alcohol Treatment Services. The DATS case is Leo Woytach, et al. v. Drug and Alcohol Treatment Services, Inc., Case No. 2025-CV-03681, in the Court of Common Pleas of Lackawanna County, Pennsylvania. It covers people who were mailed notice that their protected health information may have been compromised in the October 5-6, 2024 breach. 13
DATS has a $549,000 settlement fund. The documented-loss lane goes up to $5,000 with proof, while the alternate cash payment requires no proof but has no posted amount. Court reporting says about 22,215 people were notified. Dividing the gross fund by that notified count gives about $24.71 per person before administration, monitoring, documented-loss payments, attorneys' fees, and other deductions. That is only a rough fund-size check, not an expected payout. 14
The claim deadline is September 24, 2026. The official page says online filing uses the claim form and the notice ID and PIN; the direct online route linked by the settlement reporting is the DATS claim portal. 13 14

Three quick wins

  1. Check Cosequin today if you live in California and bought the listed dog supplements. The July 21 deadline is the only truly immediate item here.
  2. Search for the Lighthouse Electric or ABC Legal notice before doing anything else. Lighthouse needs the notice PIN; ABC's ordinary cash option is the cleaner new nationwide check.
  3. Use the right lane for the money. Choose an ordinary cash option when no proof is required. Only request documented losses when you already have records that tie the expense to the incident. A class-action settlement is not guaranteed money, and a large fund headline does not tell you what your check will be.
