At Farrell & Fuller, we are deeply engaged in the Camp Lejeune water contamination case, a pivotal environmental and health litigation that has impacted an alarming number of veterans and their families. The contamination at Camp Lejeune Marine Corps base in North Carolina exposed residents to hazardous chemicals over several decades, leading to significant health issues for potentially hundreds of thousands of individuals. This litigation underscores the massive scale of the problem and the profound health consequences suffered by those stationed or residing at the base. From the 1950s through the 1980s, individuals stationed at or residing in Camp Lejeune were unknowingly exposed to drinking water tainted with harmful chemicals. The primary contaminants, trichloroethylene (TCE), perchloroethylene (PCE), benzene, and vinyl chloride, are substances linked to a host of serious health issues, including various cancers, birth defects, and other chronic diseases.
