Camp Lejeune water contamination claims

What the Camp Lejeune claims cover

People who lived, served or worked at Marine Corps Base Camp Lejeune in North Carolina were exposed to contaminated drinking water for many years. Claims say that exposure caused cancers, neurological conditions, birth defects and other serious illness. Federal law created a route for these claims, with its own filing rules and deadlines.

Who may be able to take part

• You lived, served or worked at Camp Lejeune, including as a family member or civilian worker
• You spent at least 30 days there during the affected period
• You were later diagnosed with a cancer or other illness linked to that exposure
• You are a close family member of someone who has died after such a diagnosis

Only a lawyer can tell you whether you qualify. Because this route has its own deadlines, ask as early as you can.

What helps a law firm review your situation

Your service or residence records, the dates you were on base, your diagnosis and its date, and where you were treated.

What these claims cover

Medical treatment, lost income, pain and suffering, and the loss of a family member. No one can promise an outcome or an amount; every case is different.
