Roundup® Weed Killer Cancer Lawsuits

How Does Roundup® Expose People to Glyphosate?

Roundup is common in homes and farms nationwide, which has resulted in countless people being exposed to it and its ingredients, including glyphosate, since its introduction in the 1970s.

Roundup and glyphosate exposure can occur in several different ways, such as:

• Breathing airborne particles after the product was sprayed
• Absorbing chemicals through the skin after touching treated plants and weeds
• Drinking contaminated water that was exposed to the product
• Eating food that was grown in contaminated soil

People in all geographic areas of the U.S., including suburbs, farms, rural areas, and cities, may have been exposed to Roundup, glyphosate, and their health-related risks.

Roundup Cancer Victim Receives $289 Million Jury Award

In August 2018, a jury in San Francisco awarded $289 million in damages to a man who was diagnosed with terminal cancer after routinely using Roundup as part of his job. The case, filed on behalf of a former school groundskeeper, was the first Roundup cancer case to go to trial. Thousands more are pending in state and federal courts across the United States.

Jurors in the case cited the need to punish Monsanto for their negligence as a significant factor behind the size of the award, and the outcome of the case may set a precedent for verdicts to follow. If you or a loved one were diagnosed with non-Hodgkin lymphoma or another type of cancer after using glyphosate, you may be entitled to significant compensation.
