Camp Lejeune is a U.S. Marine Corps Base in Jacksonville, North Carolina that had two contaminated water supply systems from 1953 to 1987.

More than a Million Exposed to Camp Lejeune's Toxic Water

Way back 1953 to 1987, Volatile organic compounds were discovered to have contaminated some water treatment facilities of Camp Lejeune in North Carolina.

The government signed a new law that allows individuals affected by contaminated water from Camp Lejeune to file a lawsuit for resulting illnesses. Individuals and families who lived, worked, or served at Camp Lejeune between 1953-1987 were exposed to toxic chemicals in the water supply.

WATER CONTAMINATION
Camp Lejeune was a home to many family members living on a US Marine Corps Base. However, the tap water ingested and bathed by the families were contaminated with dangerous chemicals. Years later, the families who ingested such chemicals began developing cancer and other health issues. These soldiers have protected our country. It is only right to protect their health. If you or your family member has been affected by the Camp Lejeune water contamination issue, you may be entitled to compensation.
