Camp Lejeune Toxic Water Lawsuit

If you or someone you love lived or worked near the Marine Corps Base Camp Lejeune between 1953 and 1987 and suffered serious health problems, you may be entitled to significant compensation.

Service members, their families, and civilian employees living at Camp Lejeune in North Carolina from 1953 to 1987 were drinking and bathing in water with toxic concentrations of chemicals between 240 and 3,400 times higher than safety standards.

Some estimates suggest one million Marines, their families, and civilian workers were exposed to trichloroethylene (TCE), perchloroethylene (PCE), benzene, and vinyl chloride. All are known carcinogens (cancer-causing chemicals) and are extremely dangerous to human health, including unborn children.
