The World’s Most Popular Weed Killer Has Left a Trail of Cancer Victims.
Trial Lawyers United LLC’s attorneys represent farmers, landscapers, and consumers nationwide who developed non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma after exposure to Monsanto’s Roundup herbicide.
In the Relentless Pursuit of Justice. Results without Risk.
Overview
Roundup, the world’s most widely used herbicide, was marketed for decades as safe — even for home gardens. But mounting scientific and courtroom evidence now shows that exposure to Roundup’s active ingredient, glyphosate, can cause non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma and other cancers.
For years, Monsanto (now owned by Bayer AG) knew or should have known that glyphosate exposure posed grave health risks to humans. Instead of warning consumers, the company waged a campaign of misinformation — funding biased studies, influencing regulators, and discrediting independent scientists.
Trial Lawyers United LLC’s attorneys represent agricultural workers, groundskeepers, and homeowners whose lives have been upended by cancer linked to Roundup. We’re holding Bayer and Monsanto accountable for decades of reckless conduct that prioritized profit over public health.
Who’s Liable / How Fault Works
The Roundup litigation centers on claims of product liability, failure to warn, and corporate negligence against Monsanto Company and Bayer AG. Plaintiffs allege that:
– Monsanto’s internal studies and communications revealed early evidence of glyphosate’s carcinogenic potential.
– The company misrepresented the safety of Roundup to consumers and regulators.
– Monsanto ignored or concealed findings from independent researchers linking glyphosate to cancer.
– Bayer, after acquiring Monsanto in 2018, continued to sell Roundup products without adequate warnings or reformulation.
Our firm’s strategy integrates your Roundup use with regulatory records, corporate disclosures, and expert testimony to prove the company’s long-standing knowledge of the risks associated with glyphosate exposure.
Scientific Evidence and Causation
The scientific evidence connecting glyphosate to cancer is overwhelming:
– International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) classified glyphosate as a “probable human carcinogen” in 2015.
– Epidemiological studies have shown that farm workers and groundskeepers regularly exposed to glyphosate face a 41% higher risk of developing non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma.
– Toxicology studies demonstrate that glyphosate promotes oxidative stress and DNA damage — biological pathways directly linked to cancer formation.
– Regulatory evidence reveals that Monsanto ghostwrote scientific papers and lobbied regulators to downplay the risks.
Despite global warnings, Bayer continues to sell glyphosate-based herbicides without adequate labeling or consumer warnings.
Injuries and Health Conditions Linked to Roundup Exposure
Exposure to Roundup — particularly through inhalation, dermal absorption, or ingestion — has been linked to several cancers and chronic illnesses, including:
– Non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma (NHL)
– B-cell lymphoma
– Diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL)
– Chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL)
– Multiple myeloma
– Other hematologic malignancies
Victims often experience fatigue, weight loss, night sweats, and swollen lymph nodes before diagnosis. Many require chemotherapy, radiation, stem cell transplants, or lifelong treatment.
Evidence and Proof
Roundup cases are built on an extensive body of scientific, medical, and corporate evidence. Our attorneys work with oncologists, toxicologists, and regulatory experts to prove causation and corporate wrongdoing through:
1. Exposure records and use history showing occupational or residential contact with Roundup.
2. Medical records and pathology reports confirming diagnosis of NHL or related cancers.
3. Scientific literature linking glyphosate exposure to carcinogenesis.
4. Internal Monsanto documents proving manipulation of data and suppression of warnings.
5. Expert testimony connecting glyphosate exposure to biological mechanisms that cause cancer.
We utilize data and discovery from the federal multidistrict litigation (MDL No. 2741, Northern District of California) — one of the largest mass torts in U.S. history.
