Camp LeJeune Water Contamination Case

Poulin | Willey files first administrative claim on behalf of Camp LeJeune Contaminated Water Victims

[Charleston, SC, 8.10.2022] - Poulin | Willey | Anastopoulo is believed to be the first in the

nation to file a claim for administrative relief immediately after President Biden’s signing of the

Camp LeJeune Act. That signing allows victims who were injured due to the consumption of

contaminated water while working, visiting, or living in Camp LeJeune, North Carolina, to file

administrative claims which will then allow the filing of lawsuits should the administrative claims

not be successful.

“The signing of this bill is a massive victory for the Camp LeJeune Community and we are proud

to be able to join the fight in representing those who are going to be affected by it,” said Paul

Doolittle, the firm’s Chair of Class Actions & Mass Torts.

From the 1950s through the 1980s, people living, working, and visiting Marine Corp Base Camp

LeJeune were exposed to drinking water contaminated with industrial solvents, benzene and

other chemicals. In the years that have followed, these chemicals have been tied to a litany of

medical issues, including various forms of cancer, including lymphoma and brain cancer, which

previously were unrecoverable.

Importantly these claims are different and distinct from VA disability benefits.

Poulin | Willey | Anastopoulo looks forward to assisting Veterans and their families in receiving

the benefits they fought so hard to earn. If you or someone you know worked, lived, or visited

Camp LeJeune between 1953-1987, you may be eligible for compensation. Visit
