Mike Partain is one of the many survivors of the Camp Lejeune toxic water exposure that has decided to speak on his experience.

Mike Partain was born at Camp Lejeune, and this photograph from 1968 shows his mother cradling him in a hospital bed on base with a glass of water and a baby bottle next to her. Mike believes it was the water in that glass, as well as the water in his bottle, that catalyzed a lifelong battle he continues to fight to this day. He not only drank the water at Camp Lejeune, but he regularly bathed and played in it.

At just 39 years old, Mike was diagnosed with male breast cancer. After a total mastectomy and extensive chemotherapy treatments, he is now cancer-free. However, his physical ailments are not completely gone, and he continues to grapple with ongoing pain.

Unfortunately, so many victims share similar stories to Mike's. At The Overholt Law Firm, PC, we want to help you get the justice and compensation that you deserve if you have experienced a similar path.
