Camp Lejeune Water Contamination Lawyers
Helping Clients Seek Compensation for Exposure to Toxic Chemical
The Camp Lejeune Justice Act was recently enacted, allowing military veterans to file lawsuits against the government for the harm caused by exposure to toxic chemicals and substances in the drinking water between 1953 and 1987. The affected victims include families, veterans, contractors, and others. If you reside in Camp Lejeune for over 30 days, you may be eligible for compensatory damages due to qualifying health conditions resulting from toxic exposure.
