Roundup® is the brand name for the most widely used weed-killing agriculture product in the United States. Advertised for its effectiveness as a plant-killing herbicide that was safe for human use, farmers, landscapers, maintenance crews, groundskeepers, nursery workers, little league volunteers, and home gardeners have used this weed killer since 1974, believing the product’s safety claims.

Roundup® Cancer Lawsuits are Underway

Exposure to Glyphosate, the main ingredient in Roundup®, has now been linked to non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma, chronic lymphocytic leukemia as well as several other types of cancer.

A jury awarded plaintiffs’ 2.4 billion dollars after it found Monsanto, the chemical company that made Roundup® responsible for causing the plaintiffs cancer after exposure to its toxic product. There are now more than 13,400 cases pending against Roundup®, in state and federal courts across the United States.

If you or someone you know has been exposed to Roundup® and has been diagnosed with non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma or chronic lymphocytic leukemia cancer, you may be entitled to substantial compensation for:

  • Medical bills
  • Lost wages
  • Pain and suffering
  • Loss of a family member

Roundup® is the brand name for one of the most recognized and widely used herbicidal products on the planet. First developed in 1974 by the chemical company, Monsanto, Roundup® was heavily marketed as a highly effective, yet safe weed killer, making it an attractive choice for everyone from agricultural farmers and professional landscapers to home gardeners.

Glyphosate is the main ingredient in Roundup® and until recently, the link between this chemical and cancer was uncertain, mainly due to conflicting claims surrounding the formula’s toxicity when exposed to humans.

However, in 2015, the World Health Organization’s cancer arm classified glyphosate as “probably carcinogenic to humans.” And California’s Proposition 65 has now added glyphosate, the chemical used in Roundup®, to its cancer-causing chemicals list. Most recently, Roundup® trial cases have brought to light the manipulative way Monsanto hid what it knew to be a dangerous and cancer-causing product from the public.

There is evidence suggesting that there is a link between Roundup and cancer, particularly, non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma. Those who claim to have suffered from non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma after being exposed to Roundup® are pursuing lawsuits against Monsanto.

Individuals who have been exposed to Roundup® and have been diagnosed with non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma or chronic lymphocytic leukemia should consult a Roundup lawyer to determine if legal action can be pursued on their behalf. In many cases, victims that have been diagnosed with these types of cancer after long term use and exposure to Roundup® have been awarded millions of dollars in compensation.

If you or someone you know:

  • Used Roundup® after 1985
  • Are between the ages of 18-65
  • Has been diagnosed with any type of non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma
