Camp Lejeune Justice Act Litigation

In August, the VFW-championed Honoring Our PACT Act of 2022 was signed into law. Section 804 of the PACT Act, known as the Camp Lejeune Justice Act, authorizes veterans and military families who were exposed to toxic water at Camp Lejeune to file a federal tort claim for harm caused by such exposure.

Veterans, family members, and contractors suffering from the effect of toxic exposure at Camp Lejeune will need appropriate legal representation to join the Camp Lejeune Justice Act lawsuit. The VFW cautions its members and supporters to avoid predatory law firms advertising endlessly on television. To assist those who wish to pursue a Camp Lejeune Justice Act lawsuit, the VFW has collaborated with entrusted law firms with a long history of honorably serving veterans. These firms have agreed to

1. Cap attorney fees at a reasonable rate,
2. No upfront costs,
3. Work with the VFW to ensure veterans explore their earned VA benefits,
4. Counsel claimants on the impact of the offset included in the Camp Lejeune Justice Act before accepting an award,
5. Encourage VFW membership to eligible veterans, and
6. Provide resources to support the VFW Service Officer Program.
