Important Notice Regarding Camp Lejeune Claims and Ongoing Support
Although the August 10, 2024, deadline means Blalock LLC will no longer be able to accept new clients for filing new Camp Lejune Justice Act (CLJA) claims with the Department of Navy, we remain committed to assisting unrepresented claimants who now require legal assistance with the crucial next steps of litigation in the Eastern District of North Carolina.
After submitting your CLJA claim to the Department of the Navy, the government has up to six months to respond. If your CLJA claim is denied or no decision is made within this period, you should file a lawsuit in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of North Carolina within 180 days.
The lawsuit and associated litigation require specific legal knowledge to navigate, involving:
- Preparing and submitting a legally sufficient complaint
- Engaging in court directed document and data preservation, collection, analysis, and responding to the substantial written discovery the government will propound.
- Presenting and interpreting scientific and medical evidence
- Arguing motions before the assigned federal judge
- Negotiating with government attorneys
- Conducting your trial in accordance with the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure and the local rules of the EDNC.
Proper legal representation is important to assist claimants who otherwise risk missing critical deadlines, failing to present compelling evidence, suffering adverse rulings at trial, and potentially receiving a lower settlement or no compensation at all.
Blalock LLC’s lawyers include military veterans who have served like you. Our attorneys will aggressively prosecute your lawsuit in accordance with the requirements of the Camp Lejeune Justice Act and the EDNC. Our team will:
- Guide you through every step of the legal process
- Advance all costs and filing fees

- Negotiate aggressively for the maximum possible settlement
- File and prosecute a federal lawsuit to fight for the total compensation you deserve
