Cancer, Leukemia & Birth Defects
If you or a loved one lived, worked, or were born at Camp Lejeune (1953–1987) and developed cancer, leukemia, birth defects, or other serious illnesses, you may be entitled to substantial compensation.
Camp Lejeune Toxic Water
For over 30 years (1953–1987), the drinking water at U.S. Marine Corps Base Camp Lejeune was contaminated with industrial solvents including TCE, PCE, benzene, and vinyl chloride. Hundreds of thousands of service members, families, and civilians were exposed.
The U.S. government has acknowledged the contamination caused serious illnesses and birth defects.

The toxic chemicals in the water have been scientifically linked to over 15 different cancers and serious health conditions.
