The World Health Organization (WHO) has declared Roundup weed killer a “probable human carcinogen,” and research has shown that individuals exposed to Roundup sprayed on farms, fields and even in home gardens may be at risk for a deadly cancer called non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL). Numerous studies published in recent years have reported a possible link between Roundup exposure and cancer, and thousands of lawsuits have been brought against Monsanto by farmworkers, farmers, landscapers and even backyard gardeners, who have been diagnosed with non-Hodgkin lymphoma and other types of cancer after being exposed to Roundup. In the first Roundup verdict, delivered in August 2018, a California jury awarded the terminally ill, 46-year-old plaintiff $289 million in damages for his non-Hodgkin lymphoma, which was diagnosed after the former groundskeeper used Roundup products for years. If you believe you have been adversely affected by side effects of Roundup exposure, contact a knowledgeable Roundup cancer lawyer today to discuss your legal options.
