The Round-Up lawsuit centers on claims that glyphosate, the primary ingredient in Round-Up herbicide, has caused non-Hodgkin lymphoma along with other cancers and dangerous conditions in users. Eligible plaintiffs typically include individuals who have used Round-Up extensively and have been diagnosed with such conditions, often requiring evidence of prolonged exposure and a medical diagnosis linking their health issues to the product.
Similarly, the herbicide Paraquat has been linked with Parkinson’s Disease. You may be eligible for compensation in an ongoing lawsuit if you or a loved one was exposed to Paraquat and have been diagnosed with Parkinson’s Disease.
Symptoms of Parkinson’s Disease include tremors (shaking), slow reflexes, stiffness/rigidity, poor balance, difficulty swallowing, and small/unsteady handwriting.

Paraquat is a powerful herbicide linked to serious health risks, including Parkinson’s disease. It is at the center of numerous lawsuits contending that the manufacturers failed to warn users adequately about the potential dangers of exposure, particularly the risk of developing Parkinson’s disease. As studies have shown a link with Parkinson’s Disease, the manufacturers knew or should have known that their products are toxic. These manufacturers failed to warn the public of the potential for their products to cause Parkinson’s Disease in farmers, agricultural workers, and others who lived on or around farmland where Paraquat was in use.

Slingshot Legal Support is also actively engaged in representing individuals in lawsuits against the makers of Round-Up, a widely-used herbicide linked to severe health issues. Similar to the Paraquat lawsuits, the Round-Up legal actions also allege that the product is dangerous and its manufacturers provided insufficient warnings about these dangers. Specifically, the lawsuits contend that Round-Up’s main ingredient, glyphosate, is carcinogenic and has been associated with Non-Hodgkin’s Lymphoma among users. The lawsuits further argue that the manufacturer failed to provide adequate warnings about the risks associated with its use.
Our team is committed to advocating for those affected, aiming to hold the manufacturer accountable and secure compensation for health complications, medical expenses, and suffering caused by Round-Up. If you or a loved one has experienced adverse health effects after using Round-Up, contact Slingshot Legal Support to explore your legal rights and options.
Round-Up is a common herbicide primarily known for its active ingredient glyphosate, which is used to eliminate plants that compete with landscaping and agricultural crops. Its use has become controversial for both health and environmental reasons. Namely, glyphosate has been classified by the World Health Organization as “probably carcinogenic in humans,” linking it to Non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma and several other cancers, potential liver and kidney damage, reproductive issues, and endocrine disruption.
Glyphosate can also significantly harm biodiversity, particularly aquatic life. Its use contributes to the emergence of herbicide-resistant weeds that threaten crops and ecosystems.
The lawsuits concerning Round-Up primarily involve products containing glyphosate that are under the Round-Up brand, as they have been linked to various health concerns such as Non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma. The main product implicated in these lawsuits is Round-Up Weed & Grass Killer, the original formulation widely used by homeowners, landscapers, and farmers. Other variations of this product that have also been highlighted in legal actions include Round-Up Ready-to-Use Weed & Grass Killer, Round-Up Concentrate Plus, and the Round-Up Pro formulation designed for professional use.
These glyphosate products are central to the claims that manufacturer Monsanto (now owned by Bayer) failed to provide adequate warnings about the cancer risks, and knew about the potential health risks but did not sufficiently warn consumers.
To qualify for a Round-Up lawsuit, individuals must show proof of exposure, have a related health condition diagnosis, demonstrate a link between exposure and illness timing, file within the statute of limitations, and lack other contributing factors. Inquire below to discuss potential compensation and steps needed for legal action.
As of April 2024 there are still many active Round-Up lawsuits, with 4,281 cases still open out of a total of 4,834 filed in California. Despite Bayer’s 2020 offer to settle 100,000 cases for $10.9 billion, the litigation continues with new cases being added and substantial verdicts being awarded to plaintiffs. The lawsuits generally allege that Monsanto (acquired by Bayer), failed to adequately warn users about the cancer risks associated with glyphosate. Plaintiffs seek compensation for medical costs, suffering, and other damages. Round-Up’s lawyers are still accepting new claims, and the litigation remains open with further settlements or jury verdicts anticipated.
