Camp Lejeune Lawsuit Deadline: Only 3 Months Left TODAY!
As of today, individuals affected by the toxic water contamination at Camp Lejeune have only three months left to file their claims. This critical deadline is vital to know for veterans, their families, and civilian workers who suffered due to prolonged exposure for 30 days or more to hazardous chemicals at the military base in North Carolina.
Camp Lejeune, a prominent Marine Corps base, was plagued by severe water contamination issues from the 1950s through the 1980s. The water supply was found to contain toxic substances, including benzene, trichloroethylene (TCE), perchloroethylene (PCE), and vinyl chloride. These chemicals are linked to serious health issues, such as various cancers, birth defects, and other chronic illnesses.
After decades of advocacy, the Camp Lejeune Justice Act was enacted, allowing victims to seek compensation for their suffering. This legislation represents a significant step toward accountability and provides a pathway for those affected to receive much-needed financial relief and recognition of their hardships.
Now that there are only three months remaining, it is crucial for potential claimants to act soon. The deadline is a final call to those who lived or worked at Camp Lejeune between 1953 and 1987 and have experienced health issues linked to the contaminated water. Missing this deadline could mean forfeiting the right to seek justice and compensation.
