Supporting Your Clients: Camp Lejeune Settlements & Estate Administration

Helping Your Clients Secure Camp Lejeune Compensation for Deceased Loved Ones

You represent families impacted by the Camp Lejeune water contamination. When a client's loved one, potentially eligible for a settlement, has passed away, navigating legal hurdles can be challenging.

Estate Administration: The Crucial First Step

Before a deceased claimant's family can receive a Camp Lejeune settlement in Virginia, an estate must be opened to receive the settlement funds. Estate administration can be a complex and overwhelming process for families but it is crucial to ensure proper handling of assets and debts, ultimately leading to a fair distribution for beneficiaries.

Challenges for Your Clients

  • Establishing Legal Standing

    Your client will need to be appointed administrator or executor of the estate to manage the claim and accept the settlement proceeds.

  • Managing Estate Complexities

    Assets need identification, debts must be settled, and legal documentation completed (inventory, accountings, tax returns, etc.).

  • Ensuring Efficient Claim Processing

    Getting a fiduciary appointed quickly is crucial for timely filing a claim and receiving the Camp Lejeune settlement.
