On July 16, 2022 the United States Senate voted to pass the Camp Lejeune Justice Act (CLJA), a federal law giving former residents of Marine Corps Base Camp Lejeune, military, civilians and their families who were exposed to the Camp Lejeune water contamination the right to seek reparations from the U.S. government.  Former residents at Marine Corps Base Camp Lejeune or employees who consumed toxic water and suffered health effects may now contact a Camp Lejeune Claim Lawyer and see if you are eligible for a Camp Lejeune Lawsuit.

Residents Were Exposed to Toxins at Camp Lejeune

  • 1980-1987:  Water samples collected in 1980 and 1981 by Marine Corps and this is when the contamination was first discovered.  In 1982, a second survey identified unsafe levels of the contaminants trichloroethylene (TCE) and tetrachloroethylene (perchloroethylene or PCE).  The federal government shut down some of the contaminated wells on Camp Lejeune by 1985, however, all the contaminants were not completely removed until 1987 when the water was deemed completely safe. 
  • 2009:  The first lawsuit is filed.  Twenty-two years after the clean-up the wife of a former Marine files a lawsuit against the federal government over the water contamination, claiming she was exposed to dangerous chemicals in the water supple which case non-Hodgkin's lymphoma.
  • 2012:   The Camp Lejeune Families Act of 2012 is signed into law. In 2012, President Barack Obama signed the “Honoring America’s Veterans and Caring for Camp Lejeune Families Act of 2012” into law. The law allowed the United States Department of Veterans Affairs to provide health care benefits to service members who served at Camp Lejeune. Those families who incurred health care costs would also be eligible for reimbursement. 
  • 2017:    Veterans start to file for VA benefits under the new Act.
  • 2022:  Camp Lejeune Justice Act Is Passed and signed into law. The Camp Lejeune Justice Act was approved on August 2, 2022.  The Act allows those who lost loved ones or suffered due to the toxins in Camp Lejeune’s water to file for financial compensation for medical costs, physical and emotional damages.  

What is the Camp Lejeune Justice Act?

​Under the Camp Lejeune Justice Act, former residents at Marine Corps Base Camp Lejeune, including anyone who lived or worked at the base between 1952 and 1987, for at least 30 days and was subjected to toxic water exposure on base to file a claim against the U.S. government. The Act prohibits the U.S. government from asserting specific immunity from litigation in response to any potential lawsuit.

If the Camp Lejeune Justice Act was not passed military family members and civilians who suffer from diseases, deformities, and loss of loved ones would otherwise not have an opportunity for reparations because they would be barred by the doctrine of specified immunity. However, now those individuals who are suffering, or have suffered due to one of the presumptive conditions associated with the toxic water exposure on base can seek compensation through the judicial system via a Camp Lejeune Toxic Water Exposure Lawsuit. Contact Camp Lejeune Claim Lawyer Timothy L.

How Do I Know if I am Eligible for a Camp Lejeune lawsuit

The Department of Veterans Affairs has established a presumption of service connection for eight conditions associated with exposure to contaminants in the water supply at Camp Lejeune. The presumption applies to active duty, reserve, and National Guard members exposed to contaminants in the water supply at Camp Lejeune for at least 30 days between August 1, 1953 and December 31, 1987, and ho later developed one or more of the following eight conditions:

  • Aplastic anemia and other
  • myelodysplastic syndromes
  • Bladder cancer
  • Kidney cancer
  • Liver cancer
  • Multiple myeloma
  • Non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma
  • Parkinson’s disease 

These are the conditions for which VA has determined there is sufficient scientific and medical evidence to support presumptive service connection.  If a Veteran is diagnosed with one of these conditions, the VA will presume that his/her Camp Lejeune service caused the condition, and disability compensation can be awarded.
