Deadlines vary; a lawyer can confirm yours. An older diagnosis or a past filing window does not, by itself, establish whether you have a claim.

Where would my case be heard?

Rhode Island has approximately 65,000 veterans and is home to Naval Station Newport — one of the Navy's premier training commands. Rhode Island's compact geography belies its outsized military heritage. Marines and sailors who passed through Newport often served temporary duty at Camp Lejeune during the contamination era. The Providence VA Regional Office handles Rhode Island claims.
