Camp Lejeune: Neural tube defects claims
Neural tube defects usually occur in the first month of pregnancy, before a woman knows she is pregnant. The most common neural tube defects are spina bifida and anencephaly. What causes neural tube defects is a combination of multiple genes and multiple environmental factors. Exposure to toxic substances, such as the chemical hazards present at Camp Lejeune during the past century, is also correlated with higher risks of developing these. If you were stationed with your husband or alone, as a female member of the military, while you were pregnant at this military base and gave birth to a child with a neural tube defect, you might be entitled to compensation, so we strongly encourage you to contact our experienced attorneys.
