RoundUp’s manufacturer, Bayer, has reserved $9.6 billion to resolve Cancer lawsuits

1-800-LAW-FIRM is investigating claims that certain types of Lymphoma or Leukemia may have been caused by frequent use of Roundup or another Glyphosate-Based Weed Killer.  In 2015, the World Health Organization declared that glyphosate was a probable carcinogen, but Roundup’s manufacturer, Monsanto, continued to hide information about the cancer link until 2017.  Bayer acquired roundup as part of a 2018 acquisition and the company has continued to deny the product is cancerous, despite settling thousands of lawsuits. 

 

If you or a loved one used Roundup or another Glyphosate-Based Weed Killer and later developed lymphoma or leukemia, you may be eligible to file a Roundup lawsuit for your injuries.  Schedule a no-obligation, free claim review with a member of our team by filling out the following form.

THE PRODUCT...

Roundup is the brand name of a systemic, broad-spectrum glyphosate-based herbicide produced initially by Monsanto, which Bayer acquired in 2018. 

Glyphosate is the most widely used herbicide in the United States.  Monsanto developed and patented the glyphosate molecule in the 1970s, and has marketed it as Roundup since 1973.


It retained exclusive rights to glyphosate in the US until its US patent expired in September 2000; in other countries, the patent expired earlier. The Roundup trademark is registered with the US Patent Office and is still extant. However, glyphosate is no longer under patent, so similar products use it as an active ingredient.

THE PROBLEM...

In 2015, the World Health Organization declared glyphosate was a probable carcinogen.  Roundup’s manufacturer, Monsanto, continued to hide information about the cancer link until 2017. Some evidence shows Monsanto manipulated research, press releases, and safety documents and pressured the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) to avoid discussing negative information about Roundup.


Significant exposure to Roundup or another Glyphosate-based Weed Killer may be linked to cancers such as:


Non-Hodgkins Lymphoma, Small Lymphocytic Leukemia, B-Cell Lymphoma, Lymphoblastic Lymphoma, Mantle Cell Lymphoma, Marginal Zone Lymphoma, Burkitt Lymphoma, Chronic Lymphocytic Lymphoma, Hairy Cell Leukemia, Follicular Lymphoma, T-Cell Lymphoma or Leukemia

WHO'S AT RISK...

Exposure to Roundup or another Glyphosate-based Weed Killer typically occurs when mixing the product, preparing the product to be applied, or applying the product.  The most at-risk individuals are those who used the product in large quantities as part of their jobs and may include:

​

  • Farm workers
  • Professional gardeners
  • Garden center and nursery workers
  • Groundskeepers
  • Horticulturists
  • Landscape workers
  • Herbicide applicators in various industries

DAMAGES...

Unfortunately, in all too many cases, it is only the fear of lawsuits and large settlements and verdicts that makes a company a better corporate citizen.  Compensation may be provided for:


  • Medical bills, lost wages, pain & suffering
  • Loss of past and future earnings
  • Past and future loss of enjoyment of life
  • Temporary/permanent disability
  • Punitive damages

IS IT TOO LATE TO FILE A ROUNDUP WEED KILLER LAWSUIT?

It is not too late to file your Roundup Weed Killer lawsuit. Most states have time limits on filing a lawsuit; however, most people filing a claim will fall within those time limits if they contact an attorney in the near future.


If you regularly used Roundup Weed Killer or another Glyphosate-based product at work for one year or longer and have been diagnosed with a type of Lymphoma or Leukemia within the last three years (or the statute of limitations in your state), you may have a valid Roundup lawsuit. If you have been holding off on filing a Roundup lawsuit, you must act now because the statute of limitations may expire soon. There are no upfront costs to file a lawsuit, and if you do not receive compensation for your claim, you don't pay anything!  1-800-LAW-FIRM and our partners are handling Roundup cases for workers diagnosed with types of Lymphoma or Leukemia from all over the country.
