Camp Lejeune Water Contamination Lawsuit

Camp Lejeune is one of the Marine Corps’ biggest facilities. Over the years, nearly a million people have passed through, and for decades they drank contaminated water. Americans like to say how much we support the military. But in this case, the Marines poisoned their troops, families, employees, and contractors for decades. Legislation is pending that may give injured parties the ability to sue the federal government in federal court to get help.

ZeroRisk Cases® goes beyond conventional digital marketing.
We offer two different levels of Top-Quality Camp Lejeune signed cases.
    • Standard cases are delivered with a signed retainer and any other document that requires a signature.
    • ZeroRisk Signed Retainer Cases are delivered complete with medical records, medical record evaluation, and SF-95. If for any reason the Claimant does not meet the criteria or decides not to pursue the case, we will replace the Claimant at no additional cost.  ZERO RISK TO THE ATTORNEY!

How Do We Obtain Camp Lejeune Cases?

We use AI-based Behavioral Intent Targeting to create exclusive Camp LeJeune injury leads from TV, Facebook, YouTube, Instagram, Connected TV/OTT (Over The Top), Hulu, and data mining using our proprietary software strategy. This targeting puts effective advertising in front of those actively tracked online as acting like someone coping with an injury that may have been caused by contaminated water at Camp LeJeune.

ALL OF OUR LEADS ARE GENERATED AND PROCESSED USING OUR ZERORISK COMPLIANCE PROGRAMTM

We have developed an alternate lead origination strategy using medical diagnosis codes that is significantly more efficient than traditional attorney advertising. As a result, we are much more effective in identifying the more than 40 different types of illness associated with exposure to toxins.

Higher-quality cases lead to higher settlement awards.

What is Camp Lejeune?

Camp Lejeune takes almost 250 square miles in Onslow County, North Carolina. It first opened in 1942. It’s a Marine base of operations, and various members of the armed forces train there. Camp Lejeune has its own water system to supply everyone at the base.

What Contaminated the Water?

In the early 1980s, Camp Lejeune underground water storage tanks were found to be contaminated with the volatile organic compounds perchloroethylene (PCE), trichloroethylene (TCE), and vinyl chloride. The camp has two water facilities, the Hadnot Point Treatment Plant and the Tarawa Terrace Treatment Plant.

These toxic chemicals were found at very high levels in both plants:

  • TCE was found at Hadnot Point. The multi-purpose chemical is a colorless and odorless liquid. The military used it as a degreaser and solvent for cleaning weapons and equipment.
  • PCE was found at Tarawa Terrance. PCE is a clear liquid primarily used in the commercial dry-cleaning industry. The contamination came from a nearby dry-cleaning business

The contamination started in 1957 and ceased in 1985 when the affected wells were shut down.

How Were People Affected?

Chemicals in Camp Lejeune Water-Linked to Cancer

The industrial chemicals that were contaminating the Camp Lejeune water supply are known to be very toxic to the human body and have been linked to cancer, birth defects, and neurologic disorders. Scientific and medical evidence has shown that chronic exposure to the chemicals TCE and PCE can cause increased rates of certain types of cancer.

The types of cancer that have been scientifically linked to the consumption of harmful chemicals contaminating the water at Camp Lejeune include:

  • Leukemia
  • Bladder cancer
  • Breast cancer
  • Esophageal cancer
  • Kidney cancer
  • Liver Cancer
  • Lung Cancer
  • Multiple myeloma
  • Myelodysplastic syndrome
  • Non-Hodgkin’s Lymphoma

Exposure to these chemicals has also been linked to other health conditions including aplastic anemia (and other myelodysplastic syndromes) and neurologic disorders such as Parkinson’s disease.

Non-Cancer Camp Lejeune Injuries

The science and medical evidence continue to build linking other injuries besides cancer.

They include:

  • Infertility
  • Birth Defects
  • Birth Injuries
  • Brain Injuries
  • Cardiac Defect
  • Fatty Liver Disease
  • Miscarriage
  • Neurobehavioral Effects
  • Plastic anemia and other bone marrow conditions
  • Renal Toxicity
  • Scleroderma
  • Hepatic Steatosis
  • ALS (Lou Gehrig’s Disease)
  • Parkinson’s Disease

Contaminated Water at Camp Lejeune Caused Birth Defects

Birth defects are one of the big tragedies of Camp Lejeune. Over the years, thousands of pregnant women were exposed to toxic water at Camp Lejeune. In 2013, the CDC released the results of a study that confirmed that children who were born to mothers that lived on Camp Lejeune or drank the water supply had four times the rate of birth defects such as spina bifida.

The CDC also indicated that children who were exposed to the contaminated Camp Lejeune water during fetal gestation had an increased risk of developing childhood cancers like leukemia. These same children may also end up having a higher risk of adult cancer.

What’s the Camp Lejeune Justice Act of 2022?

The Camp Lejeune Justice Act of 2022, passed and signed into law, allows service members and their families to seek compensation for the illnesses and injuries they suffered because of Camp Lejeune’s contaminated water.

Those eligible can claim health care and disability benefits. They include those residing at the camp for at least 30 days between August 1, 1953, and December 31, 1987. Claimants will have the burden of proving a connection between their conditions or injuries and the camp’s contaminated water.

Who Will Be Covered?

The lawsuit could be filed by:

  • A veteran, reservist, guardsman, or their legal representative
  • Their spouses and ex-spouses (under certain conditions)
  • Their biological child (living at the time or in utero) and stepchild
  • Civilian contractors (who worked at the camp during the time in question)
  • If they spent at least 30 consecutive days at Camp Lejeune within the 34-year period

The federal Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) estimates over 1 million people were possibly exposed to contaminated water at Camp Lejeune.
