FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the Roundup litigation about?

Lawsuits allege that exposure to Roundup weedkiller, which contains the chemical glyphosate, can contribute to non-Hodgkin lymphoma, and that the manufacturer (Monsanto, now owned by Bayer) failed to warn users. Juries in several cases have returned verdicts for plaintiffs, and the manufacturer has resolved many claims through settlements, while litigation continues.

Do I qualify for a Roundup lawsuit?

Whether someone may qualify for a Roundup claim generally depends on factors such as the diagnosis or injury, the history of using or being exposed to the product, and when the condition was diagnosed. The clearest way to find out is a confidential case review. People's Justice is not a law firm; we connect people with attorneys who can evaluate their individual situation.

Is there a deadline to file a Roundup claim?

Yes. Each state sets a statute of limitations — a legal deadline for filing — and the time limit varies by state and can depend on when you discovered your injury. Because these deadlines can be strict and missing one may permanently bar a claim, it is important to speak with an attorney as soon as possible.

How much does it cost to pursue a Roundup claim?

Many attorneys who handle Roundup claims work on a contingency-fee basis, meaning their fee is typically a percentage of any recovery rather than an upfront payment; the specific terms are set in the agreement between the client and the attorney. A confidential case review can explain how this would work for an individual situation. People's Justice is not a law firm.

What kinds of compensation can a Roundup claim seek?

Compensation in injury and product-liability claims can include categories such as medical expenses, lost income, and pain and suffering. Whether any compensation is available, and how much, depends entirely on the specific facts of each case, and no outcome can be promised. An attorney can explain what may apply to your situation during a free review.
