Most class action lawyers will tell you 2024 was underwhelming.  The 3M earplug settlement was a disappointment.  Johnson & Johnson’s attempt to push talc claims into a third  bankruptcy did not catalyze a significant settlement.

Between 1957 and 1987, the water supply at Camp Lejeune, a Marine Corps base in North Carolina, was contaminated with harmful chemicals at exceedingly high levels. Studies have demonstrated that exposure to this contaminated water while residing or working at Camp Lejeune led to the development of cancer, birth defects, and various health issues for numerous individuals. Unfortunately, North Carolina law has prevented these Camp Lejeune victims from pursuing legal action. However, the U.S. Senate is on the verge of passing a new federal law that will allow victims of water contamination at Camp Lejeune to file claims and receive financial compensation.

Where Camp Lejeune Lawsuits Are Going in 2025

We are moving pretty slowly. There are nearly 500,000 claims (many of which are not viable). Almost all these claims are still in the administrative phase with the JAG, where claimants are required to submit evidence of exposure and a connection between their health conditions and the contaminated water. Due to the overwhelming volume of claims coupled with government bureaucracy, this process has created a bottleneck, delaying progress.

Zometa is a brand name for the medication zoledronic acid, which is used to treat various conditions, including osteoporosis and certain types of cancer. Zometa was targeted for a small but signfiicant number of lawsuits alleging that it causes osteonecrosis of the jaw (ONJ).

How Does Zometa Work?

Zometa, known generically as zoledronic acid, is a medication classified as a bisphosphonate. It works by inhibiting the activity of osteoclasts, which are the cells responsible for breaking down bone tissue. This action helps to slow bone loss and maintain bone density. By reducing the activity of these cells, Zometa can help prevent complications associated with excessive bone breakdown.
