Monsanto Glyphosate Lawsuit Overview
On this page, we’ll discuss the Monsanto Glyphosate Lawsuit (also known as the Roundup lawsuit), health risks linked to exposure to Roundup, the status of current Roundup cancer lawsuits, and much more.
Monsanto Roundup Cancer Lawsuit
The controversy surrounding Monsanto’s popular herbicide Roundup and its active ingredient glyphosate continues.
Monsanto (now owned by Bayer AG) has been marketing the chemical as a safe and effective weedkiller for decades, but recent studies have linked the herbicide to various types of cancer.
As a result, thousands of individuals have filed Roundup lawsuits against Monsanto, claiming that they developed cancer as a direct result of Roundup exposure.
Those affected by Roundup and glyphosate exposure include farmers, landscapers, and other individuals who regularly use the herbicide as part of their job.
However, even those who have used Roundup in their backyards or gardens may be at risk of developing cancer.
Despite major settlements, Roundup attorneys are accepting new clients for continued litigation.
If you or a loved one has been diagnosed with cancer after being exposed to Roundup, seek legal representation as soon as possible.

What is Monsanto's Roundup?
Roundup is a popular herbicide used to kill weeds and unwanted plants.
Monsanto, now owned by Bayer AG, introduced the product in 1976, marketing it as a safe and effective weedkiller for commercial and residential use.
According to National Geographic, Roundup was also a top-selling herbicide in over 160 countries in 2015, including the United States, United Kingdom, Canada, and Australia.
Roundup’s active ingredient is glyphosate, which works by blocking a specific enzyme that plants need to grow.
This property causes the plants to wither and die. Farmers, landscapers, and homeowners commonly use the herbicide to control weeds in agricultural fields, gardens, lawns, and parks.
Monsanto synthesized and patented the glyphosate molecule in the 1970s.
Starting in 1973, they marketed the chemical as a broad-spectrum herbicide under the brand name Roundup.
The company had exclusive rights to produce glyphosate until the patent expired in the U.S. in 2000 and earlier in other countries.
This expiration allowed other companies to start manufacturing and selling glyphosate-based herbicides under different brand names.
Glyphosate, the key ingredient in Roundup, has been the focal point of heated debates and legal battles.
As a broad-spectrum herbicide, glyphosate eliminates unwanted vegetation, making it a popular choice for farmers, landscapers, and homeowners.
The International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC), an agency within the World Health Organization, classified glyphosate as a Group 2A probable human carcinogen in 2015.
The Group 2A classification means there is limited evidence of cancer-causing effects in humans and sufficient evidence in laboratory animals.
The IARC also found that glyphosate could cause DNA and chromosomal damage in human cells.
These concerns are especially significant for those who are exposed to glyphosate regularly, such as farmers and landscapers.
The primary concern linking Roundup to health issues, particularly cancer, stems from allegations that glyphosate exposure may pose severe risks to human health.
Several routes of exposure to glyphosate may exist, including oral, dermal, and inhalation.
People who work with Roundup directly, such as farmers and landscapers, are at a higher risk of exposure to glyphosate.
However, even individuals who live near areas where Roundup is sprayed or have used the herbicide in their own yards may be at risk.
Glyphosate may contaminate drinking water sources near agricultural areas with substantial Roundup usage.
Studies have linked glyphosate to several types of hematologic cancer, including:
Lymphoma: This type of blood cancer starts in the lymphatic system. Non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma, in particular, is the primary concern linked to glyphosate exposure.
Leukemia: This type of cancer affects the blood and bone marrow, where blood cell production occurs. Leukemia includes several subtypes, such as acute lymphocytic leukemia (ALL), acute myeloid leukemia (AML), and chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL).
Multiple Myeloma: This rare type of blood cancer affects plasma cells, a white blood cell that forms part of the immune system. It may weaken bones and affect the body’s ability to fight infections.
A Journal of the National Cancer Institute (JNCI) study found a correlation between glyphosate exposure and specific oxidative stress biomarkers.
Oxidative stress refers to an imbalance between free radicals and antioxidants in the body, leading to cell damage and the development of chronic diseases, including cancer.
Another study discovered that glyphosate exposure can increase the risk of non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma by as much as 41%.
Many victims of glyphosate exposure have filed Roundup cancer lawsuits against Monsanto, alleging that they developed these types of cancer after using or being exposed to Roundup over an extended period.
If you or a loved one have been diagnosed with non hodgkin’s lymphoma or other lymphatic cancers after being exposed to Roundup regularly, you may be eligible to file a Roundup Lawsuit.

Roundup Lawsuit Update: Legal Developments and Milestones
Roundup cancer claims have resulted in a series of massive lawsuits against Monsanto and Bayer AG.
The company has settled over 100,000 Roundup glyphosate lawsuits for a total of $11 billion.
With so many cases settled, many people wonder how so many Roundup lawsuits are still pending.
Monsanto and Bayer are still facing over 40,000 pending lawsuits.
Many victims are still filing Roundup lawsuits in their respective state courts, but there are still over a significant amount of Roundup cases included in the Roundup MDL in California federal court.
Key Court Rulings and Settlements
Recent court decisions have played a pivotal role in shaping the trajectory of the Monsanto glyphosate lawsuits.
Here are some of the significant legal developments and milestones in the Roundup lawsuits:
August 2018: A groundskeeper was diagnosed with non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma (NHL) after years of using Roundup. A San Francisco jury awarded him $289 million in damages plus $250 million in punitive damages. The judge later reduced the total award to $78 million.
March 2019: A plaintiff developed NHL three years after using Roundup. The jury returned a verdict of $80 million in damages plus an additional $75 million in punitive damages.
May 2019: A California jury awarded $2 billion to a couple who developed NHL after using Roundup.
June 2020: Bayer offered to settle around 100,000 Roundup claims for $10.9 billion. They also put aside $1.25 billion for future Roundup cancer claims, which later increased to $2 billion.
May 2021: Judge Vince Chhabria denied Bayer’s $2 billion offer, saying it was unreasonable and too low. He urged the parties to come up with a better settlement offer.
September 2022: Monsanto and Bayer won their fifth Roundup cancer trial in a row in St. Louis, Missouri.
May 2023: Also in St. Louis, Missouri, Monsanto and Bayer earned their seventh consecutive win in the Roundup litigation.
June 2023: Bayer agreed to settle claims alleging it misled consumers about Roundup’s safety and environmental effects.
October 2023: A San Diego jury granted $332 million ($7 million in compensatory damages and $325 million in punitive damages) to a plaintiff living with cancer after ruling that Roundup didn’t warn consumers adequately about the potential cancer risks of Roundup.
November 2023: A Missouri jury granted $1.56 billion to four plaintiffs who developed NHL after using Roundup.
October 2023: A plaintiff won $175 million ($25 million in compensatory damages and $150 million in punitive damages) thanks to a Philadelphia jury. However, Bayer AG plans to appeal the verdict.
December 2023: A Philadelphia jury ordered Bayer to pay $3.5 million to a woman who developed NHL after using Roundup.
The Roundup litigation has been ongoing for several years.
The manufacturers have lost multiple court cases and recently settled thousands of claims.
While the companies had their share of wins, plaintiffs consecutively winning recent Roundup lawsuits could push the manufacturers to settle even more cases.
Insights and Health Risks Identified in Roundup Cancer Studies
Recent scientific studies continue to investigate the potential health risks associated with glyphosate exposure.
While some studies support the link between Roundup and cancer, others present conflicting findings.
The scientific landscape is complex, with ongoing research influencing legal arguments and contributing to the nuanced understanding of glyphosate’s impact on human health.
Expert Analysis
Expert opinions are crucial in interpreting scientific data and guiding legal proceedings.
Experts in the field provide valuable insights, evaluating the credibility of studies and offering perspectives on the connection between glyphosate and cancer.
Some expert witnesses have testified in the Roundup lawsuits, including the following:
Dr. Charles Benbrook and William Sawyer: Dr. Benbrook, a renowned agricultural economist, and William Sawyer, a toxicology expert, testified in the Alesi Roundup trial in 2022 in favor of the plaintiffs.
Professor David Carpenter: Professor Carpenter is an expert in environmental toxins and served as an expert witness for many plaintiffs. Monsanto attempted to discredit his work. After an investigation, the State University of New York at Albany cleared and reinstated Carpenter.
Dr. Dennis Weisenburger: Dr. Weisenburger, a frequent expert witness for the plaintiffs in Roundup trials, maintains that using Roundup more than two days per year doubles the risk of developing NHL.
Dr. Ron Schiff: Dr. Schiff has provided expert medical opinions on the causal link between glyphosate and lymphoma in numerous Roundup trials. However, Monsanto claims that his opinions are flawed and unreliable.
Richard DeGrandchamp: The expert toxicologist from the University of Colorado testified in favor of the plaintiffs, stating that many studies since 2015 have consistently linked glyphosate to cancer.
As the Roundup litigation continues to unfold, expert opinions still play a crucial role in determining the outcome of each case.
The scientific landscape and expert opinions will likely evolve as more studies are conducted, providing essential insights into the potential health risks of glyphosate exposure.
Monsanto has settled the wide majority of Roundup cancer lawsuits through a 2020 settlement deal worth over $10 billion.
Plaintiffs in the Roundup MDL have received Roundup settlements according to the circumstances and damages in their case.
Despite the majority of Roundup cases being resolved, new Roundup weedkiller cancer lawsuits are still being filed.
The $10 billion Roundup settlement allowed for significant amounts to be dedicated for future Roundup cancer claims, and several Roundup cancer lawsuits have been awarded significant compensation through jury verdicts.
In a Roundup lawsuit, evidence generally includes medical records confirming a diagnosis of Non-Hodgkin’s Lymphoma or a similar condition, documentation of Roundup exposure (such as purchase receipts or employment records for those in relevant industries), and expert testimony linking glyphosate exposure to the plaintiff’s medical condition.
This evidence helps establish a causal connection between Roundup use and the plaintiff’s illness.
Yes, lawyers continue to file Roundup lawsuits on behalf of individuals who have been diagnosed with Non-Hodgkin’s Lymphoma or other related health issues believed to be caused by exposure to glyphosate, the active ingredient in Roundup.
Despite previous settlements, new cases are still emerging as more people come forward with claims.
If you have been exposed to Roundup and developed cancer, you may be eligible to file a Roundup Lawsuit.
