Roundup, the world’s most widely-used weed killer, has been found to cause cancer in persons who have been exposed to the substance. Specifically, the World Health Organization’s International Agency for Research on Cancer determined in 2015 that Roundup and other glyphosate herbicides are a “probable human carcinogen” based on studies conducted around the globe. New Roundup cancer warnings have been issued worldwide, banning the sale and use of Roundup in many countries. For decades, Roundup has been marketed as safe; now plaintiffs suffering from Roundup cancer and lymphoma are suing Monsanto for damages.

Roundup cancer lawsuits allege that Monsanto has engaged in concealing Roundup cancer risks. The company has a huge interest in protecting Roundup’s reputation: In 2015, Roundup brought in close to $4.76 billion, approximately one-third of the company’s global sales. Monsanto’s Roundup Ready crops, which are used in tandem with the herbicide, are even more profitable – seeds and genomic products brought Monsanto over $10 billion in annual sales in 2015. These products rely heavily on the continued viability of Roundup, and public awareness of the Roundup lymphoma risk would hurt global sales.

Monsanto plays an important role in the economy of St. Louis, our firm’s base. Well-liked for its many contributions to our community, Monsanto’s violation of consumer trust comes as a surprise to many. However, unless faced with significant litigation, Monsanto is likely to continue marketing these harmful products as safe. Roundup cancer lawsuits serve the dual purpose of recovering medical damages for families harmed by the product, and holding Monsanto accountable for choosing profits over human life. If you or a loved one has been diagnosed with lymphoma or another form of cancer after Roundup exposure, you may have grounds to file a Roundup cancer lawsuit.
