Were you exposed to water contamination at Camp Lejeune?

As a Veteran himself, I believe Mr. Mercer “gets it.”

He works hard for his Brothers and Sisters in arms. I have no hesitation in offering my full and honest endorsement for Mr. Mercer’s representation with the Department of Veterans Affairs. I highly recommend Mr. Mercer to any Veteran, in any state or location, when legal counsel is needed during the VA’s claim process.
