Paraquat Parkinson’s Attorney in Dothan, Alabama

Dothan and the Wiregrass region are Alabama's primary peanut and cotton farming area, where paraquat has been used as a harvest-aid desiccant and burndown herbicide for decades. Houston, Dale, Henry, and Geneva counties have large agricultural workforces with chronic paraquat exposure from mixing, loading, and applying the herbicide on row crops. Alabama's 2-year statute of limitations under Ala. Code § 6-2-38 starts from the date of discovery of the injury and its cause. Wiregrass farmworkers diagnosed with Parkinson's should evaluate their paraquat exposure history immediately.
