How to Qualify for a Legal Claim against Roundup Weed Killer

Roundup weed killer is a popular farm and garden product. With an active ingredient of glyphosate, Roundup can kill weeds faster than many other products on the market. However, in 2015, the International Agency for Research on Cancer found that glyphosate can be dangerous to humans. Studies found that workers with an increased exposure to Roundup were experiencing increased rates of cancer. If you’ve been exposed to Roundup and later developed non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma, your exposure to the weed killer and your cancer may be related. Discussing your disease with a Roundup lawyer from Craig Swapp & Associates can help you determine whether you qualify for a legal claim. 

Injuries Caused by Exposure to Roundup

Studies have shown that increased exposure to Roundup might lead to various forms of cancer. Non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma is the most common type of cancer associated with Roundup, but Roundup may also cause T-cell and B-cell lymphoma, leukemia, multiple myeloma, and brain cancer.  If you’ve developed cancer and you know you were exposed to large amounts of Roundup in your job or personal life, you should speak with a lawyer and assess your legal options.

How to Join a Class Action Lawsuit for Roundup

Once you have evidence to prove your case against Roundup, you can file an individual lawsuit or join a class action lawsuit. A class action lawsuit will involve joining others who have suffered similar injuries to you, such as other victims of non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma who were exposed to Roundup in your place of work, as an example. Although many people have suffered from cancer because of exposure to Roundup, you may receive a higher settlement by filing alone. As a victim, your story may be unique, and you deserve the maximum settlement for your suffering. Speaking to an attorney can help you determine how best to move forward with your case.
