More than one million people who worked, lived, or even served at Camp Lejeune, North Carolina were exposed to the toxic chemicals resulting from contaminated water. As a result, people suffered from several health conditions such as birth defects, cancer, and other serious diseases.
The United States Government passed the Camp Lejeune Justice Act that allows victims to seek legal damages for injuries and death caused by contaminated groundwater. Veterans, contractors, civilian workers, family members, and everyone else is eligible to file a Camp Lejeune lawsuit and recover damages.
However, the money available for compensation would be substantial. Besides, individual amounts will vary as well. Also, the amount of money is based on the conditions diagnosed, specific injuries suffered, and time spend on the base.
