Camp Lejeune Injury Lawsuits – CALL NOW
Near the sprawling Marine Corps Base Camp Lejeune along the North Carolina coastline, toxic agents seeped into the soil at fuel depots, base junkyards, and even a dry cleaner. The chemicals poisoned groundwater for over 34 years, beginning in 1953. Millions of Marines and their family members drank, cooked, and bathed in the water. Exposure to these dangerous chemicals is linked to serious health hazards.
When we sent our service members into harm’s way, we promised to care for them and their loved ones—and pay for that care—upon their return. Yet, Congress has been slow to honor this pact. But the Camp Lejeune Justice Act of 2021 will change that.
The Camp Lejeune Justice Act allows anyone who lived or worked at the base from August 1, 1953, to December 31, 1987, for at least 30 days, exposed to the contaminated water and suffered injuries, to file a claim against the U.S. government.
The time frame to file a Camp Lejeune water contamination lawsuit is limited. So, it’s essential to act quickly. All injury claims that occurred before the passage of the Camp Lejeune Justice Act of 2021 will have two years from the passing of the act to file their case.
