Close to a million people faced exposure to the poisonous water at the
U.S. Marine Corps base called Camp Lejeune in Jacksonville, North Carolina. Military servicemen and women, civilian staff members, visitors to the base, parents, children, and even unborn babies were unknowingly endangered by the chemical-laden water. You may have been one of them if you were at the base from 1953 to 1987.
The PACT Act empowers victims harmed by this exposure to sue the government if they currently suffer from at least one of the illnesses and injuries linked to the toxic water at Camp Lejeune and satisfy one of the following criteria:
They resided at Camp Lejeune between August 1, 1953, and December 31, 1987, for at least 30 days, cumulatively. They worked at Camp Lejeune between August 1, 1953, and December 31, 1987, for at least 30 days, cumulatively. They were exposed to the water at Camp Lejeune between August 1, 1953, and December 31, 1987, for at least 30 days, cumulatively, including as a fetus.
If you believe the government’s negligence harmed you at Camp Lejeune, we can help you file your case.
