Weedkillers like Roundup are a common sight in many households and used widely to manage agriculture and landscaping. We all know these chemicals kill weeds and are likely not the best thing to expose your body directly to but lately the possible risks posed by weedkillers such as Roundup have come under scrutiny after several lawsuits have been filed claiming an ingredient in Roundup called glyphosate helped cause plaintiff’s cancer. One of these lawsuits against the manufacturer of Roundup known as Monsanto has actually managed to successfully recover compensation in the form of 80 million dollars for a man that claims to have gotten lymphatic cancer after heavy use of Roundup on his property.

Legal action has been taken against the chemical companies that make these weedkillers before. The first case was in California where Dewayne “Lee” Johnson filed a lawsuit against Monsanto who is the maker of the weedkiller known as Roundup. The lawsuit revolved around Johnson’s claims that he developed lymphatic cancer as a result of his long term exposure to Roundup while working as a groundskeeper. The trial resulted in a verdict of 289.2 million awarded to Dewayne Johnson that was later reduced to 78.5 million and Monsanto filed an appeal shortly after.

Dolman Law Group is now investigating potential cases against Monsanto after their popular herbicide product, Roundup Weed Killer, has been linked to the diagnosis of cancer—specifically, non-Hodgkins lymphoma, multiple myeloma, and leukemia. Our legal actions comes in the wake of other successful lawsuits against Monsanto in which the agricultural company was found to know about their product’s risk for cancer but failed to warn their consumers. If you have been diagnosed with non-Hodgkin lymphoma as a result of using roundup weed killer, contact us immediately.

The two most prominent lawsuits filled against the maker of Roundup were both filed in California. In these two separate cases, one person was initially awarded $289 million and the other was awarded $80 million. Both of these plaintiffs were diagnosed with a type of cancer called non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma after both individuals used Roundup weed killer for years.

If Monsanto did know about the carcinogenic effects of their product—and rather than pulling the product or changing the formula, they decided to continue to make billions of dollars off the product—then they should be held responsible. Dolman Law Group intends to hold the mega corporation Monsanto to the same standards of care that all chemicals company have when they sell a product in millions of stores to millions of consumers.
