For over 30 years, Camp Lejeune veterans, civilians, and their family members were unknowingly exposed to contaminated drinking water.
Their prolonged exposure to toxic chemicals resulted in various health problems, including autoimmune diseases.
The immune system is our body’s defense against microorganisms and other foreign invaders.
Autoimmune diseases occur when the body’s immune system mistakenly attacks healthy tissue, cells, and organs.
There are over 80 types of autoimmune diseases known to medical science.
The most common autoimmune diseases include:
Scientific research has found links between exposure to toxic substances found in the water at Camp Lejeune to the increased risk for certain autoimmune diseases.
Research studies linking autoimmune disease to toxic exposure include:
The exact cause of autoimmune diseases is unknown.
However, certain risk factors can increase an individual’s chances of developing an autoimmune disease, including:
In the case of Camp Lejeune victims, the contamination of drinking water with toxic substances may have played a significant role in the development of autoimmune diseases among those who lived there.
Autoimmune diseases can cause life-altering symptoms and complications, making it difficult to live a normal life.
Autoimmune diseases can result in various complications, ranging from mild to severe.
Common symptoms and complications of autoimmune diseases include:
Other complications of autoimmune diseases can include:
Understanding the link between Camp Lejeune’s contaminated water and autoimmune diseases is crucial for those seeking justice and compensation for their suffering.
The water supply of Marine Corps Base Camp Lejeune was contaminated with highly toxic substances for over 30 years.
Victims drank, bathed in, cooked with, and used contaminated drinking water for years, often without knowing that consuming this water could result in devastating health problems.
Studies conducted by the Agency for Toxic Substances and Disease Registry (ATSDR), Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), and other organizations revealed that the water at Camp Lejeune was contaminated with over 70 toxic chemicals, including a fatal amount of volatile organic compounds (VOCs).
Countless Camp Lejeune veterans, family members, civilian workers, private contractors, and others have been diagnosed with cancer, suffered from birth defects and neurological disorders, and passed away without any form of official recognition or compensation from the government.
Past legislative efforts, such as the Camp Lejeune Families Act of 2012, attempted to secure expanded VA health care benefits, disability compensation, and other forms of relief for Camp Lejeune victims and their family members.
It wasn’t until the Camp Lejeune Justice Act of 2022 that a comprehensive solution to compensate all past victims of Camp Lejeune water contamination was established.
The Camp Lejeune Justice Act allows Camp Lejeune victims file administrative claims for compensation against the US Government.
The Navy’s Tort Claims Unit (TCU) will promptly review compensation claims, and if the Navy TCU does denies a claim or does not deliver a decision within six months, victims can file Camp Lejeune Lawsuits in the US District Court for the Eastern District of North Carolina.
Victims can work with qualified law firms to help them file administrative claims for compensation, and pursue Camp Lejeune Lawsuits if their claims are unsuccessful.
If you or a loved one lived or worked at Camp Lejeune for 30 days or more between 1953 and 1987, you may be eligible to file a Camp Lejeune Lawsuit.

The consumption of Camp Lejeune contaminated water has been linked to a number of cancer and non-cancer diagnoses.
The characterization of Camp Lejeune health conditions is detailed in a 2009 book published by the National Research Council (NRC).
Certain cancer diagnoses potentially linked to contaminated water at Camp Lejeune include:
Non-cancer diagnoses suffered by Camp Lejeune victims include:
Service members, their families, civilian workers, and countless others were diagnosed with deadly health conditions and, for years, could not secure the benefits they desperately needed.
In 1982, a study conducted by the Agency for Toxic Substances and Disease Registry (ATSDR) traced the contamination of the Camp Lejeune water supply to a dry cleaning facility near the base.
The business used large quantities of cleaning solvents, and their unethical waste disposal caused water contamination.
The Tarawa Terrace and the Hadnot Point water treatment plants, two of the eight water treatment plants on the base, were found to be the primary sources of contamination.
These water systems had abnormally high levels of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) that had seeped into the drinking water.
The Agency for Toxic Substances and Disease Registry (ATSDR) studied the water contamination at Camp Lejeune and discovered that it affected over one million Camp Lejeune residents from 1953 to 1987.
These individuals unknowingly drank, bathed, and cooked with toxic water for years, and were subsequently diagnosed with cancer, birth defects, neurological disorders, and other health risks.
The ATSDR found toxic concentrations of volatile organic compounds in the two water treatment plants at Camp Lejeune.
The Tarawa Terrace treatment plant had high tetrachloroethylene (PCE) levels, and the Hadnot Point treatment plant had high trichloroethylene (TCE) levels.
Other toxic substances found in the Camp Lejeune water include:
These contaminants can cause serious health problems, including autoimmune disorders. People exposed to contaminated drinking water are at a higher risk of developing an autoimmune disease.

Family members of deceased Camp Lejeune family members, dependents,
It’s crucial to consult an attorney to determine eligibility and explore legal options.
The settlement amount for each individual case will differ based upon the injuries suffered, conditions diagnosed, time spent at the base, and more.
Lawsuit settlements would also contain damages incurred, which can include medical bills, lost income, pain and suffering, emotional damages, and more.
Depending on injuries suffered, conditions diagnosed, and evidence available, individual settlement amounts for exposure to contaminated water at Camp Lejeune could be significant.
Camp Lejeune lawsuit settlement amounts could be between $10,000 and $500,000 or more depending on the strength of your case.
These estimates for Camp Lejeune settlement amounts are only estimations based on the Congressional Budget Office (CBO) budget for Camp Lejeune claims.
These estimates are not a guarantee by any means of certain compensation for Camp Lejeune settlements.
Visit this page for more updates on settlement amounts for Camp Lejeune lawsuits as the information becomes more widely available.
The Camp Lejeune Justice Act is one of the most critical pieces of legislation in Camp Lejeune victims’ fight for justice.
President Joe Biden signed the PACT Act, or the Honoring Our Promise to Address Comprehensive Toxics Act, into law on August 10, 2022.
The PACT Act authorized the Department of Veterans Affairs to provide VA healthcare benefits, disability compensation, and other services to eligible veterans who were exposed to toxic chemicals during military service.
The Camp Lejeune Justice Act of 2022 (CLJA) is Section 804 of the PACT Act.
Amending the Federal Tort Claims Act (FTCA) and overriding a previous North Carolina statute barring claims of this sort, the Camp Lejeune Justice Act implemented a claims process for victims to seek compensation.
The Camp Lejeune administrative claims process allows victims to file for compensation against the federal government.
The CLJA provides a viable legal remedy for Camp Lejeune water contamination victims to seek financial compensation and justice.
The Navy’s Tort Claims Unit (TCU) will review compensation claims, and the TCU has six months to adjudicate or deny a claim.
Camp Lejeune victims whose claims are unsuccessful may be eligible to file a Camp Lejeune Lawsuit in federal court, specifically the US District Court for the Eastern District of North Carolina.
