Were You Exposed to Roundup Weed Killer?

Recent scientific studies and assessments by health authorities have found a potential link between exposure to Roundup and increased risk of developing non-Hodgkin's lymphoma, a type of blood cancer.

‍

In 2015, the World Health Organization's International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) classified glyphosate, the main ingredient in Roundup, as "probably carcinogenic to humans." This means there is sufficient evidence showing glyphosate exposure can cause cancer in humans.

‍

Specifically, the IARC report cited an association between glyphosate exposure and non-Hodgkin's lymphoma. Multiple studies of farmers and agricultural workers who use glyphosate showed increased risks for this form of cancer. The IARC cancer classification prompted thousands of people across the U.S. to file lawsuits against Monsanto, the manufacturer of Roundup, for failing to warn about cancer risks.

If you or someone you care about has been diagnosed with any type of cancer after routinely using Roundup weed killer for yard care, landscaping, farming or other purposes, you may have grounds for legal action.

‍

It's important to consult with a Roundup cancer attorney as soon as possible after diagnosis. There are real time limits on when you are allowed to file a claim against the manufacturer. An attorney can help determine if your cancer could be linked to Roundup exposure. They can collect evidence, prove negligence, and fight to get you maximum financial compensation.

The key ingredient in Roundup is glyphosate, a broad-spectrum systemic herbicide discovered by Monsanto in the 1970s. As a non-selective weed killer, glyphosate is effective at killing most types of grasses, weeds and other unwanted vegetation by interfering with an essential plant enzyme.

‍

It quickly became the top-selling herbicide worldwide once Monsanto's patent expired in 2000. Most formulations of Roundup contain a concentrated form of glyphosate along with various surfactants and adjuvants to help it penetrate plant leaves and roots.

‍

The widespread adoption of Roundup meant glyphosate use grew enormously on farms, gardens, parks, golf courses and other settings over decades of use. Humans can be exposed by inhaling spray mist, getting it on bare skin and ingesting residues left on plants or in water supplies.

If you or a loved one developed cancer after exposure to Roundup, you may be entitled to significant financial compensation. The attorneys at Braver Law provide free consultations to individuals and families harmed by Monsanto's toxic weed-killing products.

People with the highest exposure to Roundup are at greatest risk for cancer like non-Hodgkin's lymphoma. Commercial landscapers, agricultural workers, farmers, groundskeepers and others who sprayed Roundup regularly as part of their jobs often had prolonged contact with concentrated formulations over many years. Even with protective gear, this frequent high-level exposure significantly increased their chances of developing cancer from the glyphosate in Roundup.

‍

If your job duties required routine, intensive spraying of Roundup weed killer, you may have an extremely viable case against Monsanto. Our lawyers can help workers like you recover substantial damages for the cancer caused by heavy occupational exposure to Roundup. We are committed to holding Monsanto fully accountable on behalf of hardworking agricultural and landscaping professionals harmed by their dangerous herbicides.

There are many ways people may encounter and absorb the cancer-causing chemical glyphosate from Roundup:

‍

• Inhaling spray mist during application
• Getting it on unprotected skin or clothing
• Eating produce sprayed directly with Roundup
• Drinking groundwater contaminated with runoff
• Living near farms where it was sprayed
• Working at a Roundup production facility

Our attorneys are here to fight on your behalf and recover the maximum compensation you deserve from Monsanto for all the damages caused by their dangerous product.
