Understanding Camp Lejeune Claims
From the 1950s through the 1980s, the water supply at Marine Corps Base Camp Lejeune was heavily contaminated by cancer-causing volatile organic compounds. Everyone who lived or worked on base during that time was exposed. The potential health repercussions of long-term exposure include:
- Certain types of cancer
- Parkinson’s disease
- Liver disease
- Kidney disease
- Birth defects
Sometimes, these medical conditions didn’t develop until years or decades later.
Victims of water contamination at Camp Lejeune have the right to seek compensation. To qualify, you must demonstrate that you lived or worked on base for at least 30 days during the time period of the contamination and that you suffered from a health condition linked to the contaminated water. Our lawyers can evaluate your claim and help you through every stage of the compensation process.
