Roundup Weed Killer Cancer Lawsuits

Home   /   Personal Injury Blog   /   Roundup Weed Killer Cancer Lawsuits

November 23, 2023 | By Roman Austin Car Accident and Personal Injury Lawyers
Roundup Weed Killer Cancer Lawsuits

Roundup Weed Killer has been used for years in both commercial and residential settings. Unfortunately, the main ingredient in this weed killer is now linked to the development of serious, life-threatening cancers.

If you or a loved one has used Roundup Weed Killer and later received a cancer diagnosis, you may have a valid claim for financial recovery. An injury attorney can provide personalized assistance and represent your best interests throughout your case. 

Roundup Weed Killer Litigation

For several years, Roundup Weed Killer has been at the center of many cases involving illnesses and deaths in those who used the product. To date, victims have had the opportunity to recover millions of dollars for their injuries and losses. Litigation is still ongoing.

Roundup is one of the most popular weed killers ever sold. It is used by farmers, landscapers, and everyday consumers. Its main ingredient is glyphosate, a chemical that effectively kills unwanted plants and weeds.

Monsanto, an American agrochemical company, developed glyphosate in the 1970s and produced Roundup Weed Killer for decades. Glyphosate is now known to be a carcinogen, and researchers have linked it to the development of several types of cancers. Regular users of Roundup have struggled with and continue to develop severe illnesses.

In 2018, Monsanto was acquired by Bayer. Bayer is now dedicated to reformulating the product and replacing the cancer-causing chemical with safer alternatives. Bayer has also committed to pay plaintiffs billions of dollars to cover losses associated with product use. 

Cancers Linked to Roundup Weed Killer

The toxic active ingredient in Roundup Weed Killer is most strongly linked to non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma. 

However, other cancers are associated with the use of this product, including:

  • Anaplastic large cell lymphoma
  • Chronic lymphocytic leukemia
  • Diffuse large B-cell lymphoma
  • Follicular lymphoma and hairy cell leukemia
  • Mantle cell lymphoma
  • Small lymphocytic lymphoma

If you’ve received a cancer diagnosis after using Roundup Weed Killer, do not wait to discuss your situation with a qualified attorney. A lawyer can help determine whether you have a valid claim and fight to protect your rights to compensation. 

Determining Your Eligibility to File a Roundup Weed Killer Claim

Whether you’re a professional or everyday consumer who previously used Roundup Weed Killer and has developed cancer, you may have a valid claim. 

You could be eligible to file a claim if:

  • You directly used Roundup Weed Killer for a long period
  • You were diagnosed with non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma or another qualifying cancer 
  • The statute of limitations has not expired

Adults are not the only ones able to seek compensation in a Roundup claim. Children 12 years of age or younger may also be eligible to receive financial recovery if they became ill after exposure to significant amounts of the weed killer.

The statute of limitations varies from state to state. In Florida, victims of Roundup Weed Killer have four years after their illness is diagnosed to file a lawsuit for compensation. For cases involving wrongful death, the time limit is two years. 

If you believe you may have a Roundup claim for compensation, do not wait to pursue legal guidance. Discuss your case with an injury attorney right away. 

Taking Legal Action for Your Roundup Weed Killer Case

If you’ve suffered harm after using Roundup Weed Killer, you don’t have to take on your legal battle alone. Don’t wait to seek legal assistance, as time is limited. A skilled personal injury lawyer can give you the best chance of recovering the compensation you need and deserve.

They did a great job and even advised what to do if there was no insurance for the at-fault driver and I had to self represent. Ended up being able to get me the fullest payout possible, team was easy to keep in touch with, and Miles was clear in his explanations and helpful with his advice. I still use some of the doctors I connected with through their firm. Would recommend Roman Austin and would use them again.

I cannot say enough incredible things about Roman Austin Law Firm. John Austin is a phenomenal lawyer. I was in a bad crash that involved a truck totaling my vehicle and sustaining neck and back injuries.Going into this process, I was honestly apprehensive about even hiring a lawyer. I was especially wary of those large, commercial firms that just want to move cases quickly. I had heard some great things about Roman Austin, but did my own extensive research and now know why they are a five star firm. What could have easily been a stressful and overwhelming experience turned into something completely different because of John Austin and his team. Choosing them was one of the best decisions I have ever made.John is truly exceptional. He is incredibly detailed, meticulous, and completely devoted to his work. He worked tirelessly on my case, going above and beyond anything I could have ever expected. He spent countless hours (even on weekends), and was always available whenever I needed him. His level of dedication, care, and precision is something you rarely find.Beyond that, he is patient, kind, and deeply compassionate. You never feel like just another case. He genuinely cares about you as a person and wants the absolute best for you. He made what could have been a difficult process feel manageable and supported every step of the way.His entire team was phenomenal. They were responsive, professional, and just as committed. Every interaction felt thoughtful and intentional.The outcome we achieved was fantastic, and I am beyond grateful. I couldn't be more pleased with my experience.If you are considering legal representation, I wholeheartedly recommend John at Roman Austin Law Firm. They are professional, dedicated, and truly invested in their clients.Choosing John Austin made all the difference. He fought tirelessly to ensure that everything I endured was recognized and fairly compensated, and that level of dedication is something I will never forget. I am profoundly grateful not only for the outcome, but for the care, integrity, and unwavering commitment shown every step of the way. Forever thankful I chose them, and truly forever grateful.

Once again Roman & Austin and their team has been a helping hand through hard times after being rear ended by a driver not paying attention. The same day I was set up with community care to make sure I had to physical and emotional support I needed and they checked on me with updates every week. They got me the full compensation I deserved for my injuries and are the best at what they do.

J.K.

“They held our hand the entire time.” “Rebuilt our lives.“Helped with doctors and wage loss.” “Felt like family.” “Prompt resolutions.”
