Roundup Lymphoma Lawsuit Overview
On this page, we’ll discuss the Roundup Lymphoma Lawsuit, the health risks of Roundup exposure, the current status of Roundup lawsuits, how Roundup cancer lawyers can help you, and much more.
Roundup Exposure Linked to Lymphoma and Other Health Risks
Exposure to Roundup has been linked to several types of cancer and other health problems.
Types of lymphoma linked to Roundup exposure include:
Small Lymphocytic Leukemia
B-Cell Lymphoma
Lymphoblastic Lymphoma
Mantle Cell Lymphoma
Marginal Zone Lymphoma
Burkitt Lymphoma
Non Hodgkin’s Lymphoma
Chronic Lymphocytic Lymphoma
Hairy Cell Lymphoma
Follicular Lymphoma
T-Cell Lymphoma or Leukemia
Potentially other types of Lymphoma
Many studies have linked glyphosate, the active ingredient in Roundup weed killer, to various lymphomas, particularly non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma.
Users who have suffered from prolonged exposure to Roundup are at an increased risk of developing lymphoma and other cancers.
If you or a loved one were exposed to Roundup Weed Killer and subsequently diagnosed with lymphoma, you may be eligible to file a Roundup cancer lawsuit.

The use of Roundup, a popular herbicide containing glyphosate, has been linked in some studies to an increased risk of lymphoma, particularly Non-Hodgkin’s Lymphoma.
Lymphoma is a type of cancer that originates in the lymphatic system, which is a crucial part of the body’s immune defense, involving the lymph nodes, spleen, and other organs.
Non-Hodgkin’s Lymphoma, one of the main types of lymphoma, is characterized by the abnormal growth of lymphocytes, a type of white blood cell.
The exact mechanism by which glyphosate exposure might trigger the onset of lymphoma is not definitively understood, but it’s thought to potentially involve the disruption of certain cellular and immunological processes.
Subsequent research and legal proceedings have focused on establishing this purported link between glyphosate exposure and the increased risk of this particular cancer.
Current Research on Roundup and Lymphoma Risk
Several studies have found a potential link between glyphosate and developing non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma.
One 2019 study linked prolonged exposure to glyphosate in Roundup to increased lymphoma risk.
The study was a meta-analysis that discovered a correlation between glyphosate-based herbicides like Roundup and lymphoma.
One 2021 review found compelling evidence of Roundup’s carcinogenicity.
According to the 2021 review, human and animal studies show overwhelming evidence that glyphosate was correlated with high incidences of lymphoma and non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma.
These studies are just two of many that indicate the link between Roundup and lymphoma risk.
Relevance of the Findings in the Roundup Lawsuit
Findings from scientific studies linking glyphosate to an increased risk of non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma hold immense significance in the ongoing Roundup lawsuits.
These studies are critical pieces of evidence.
From these pieces of evidence, Roundup lawsuit lawyers can present their arguments in courtrooms and influence jury decisions.
The findings also provide a foundation for plaintiffs alleging that their cancer diagnosis resulted from prolonged exposure to Roundup.
With scientific studies as their evidence, victims can bolster their claims and contribute to the evolving Roundup litigation.
In numerous Roundup cases, Monsanto, now owned by Bayer, has faced liability allegations due to claims that their widely used herbicide, Roundup, causes Non-Hodgkin’s Lymphoma and other serious health problems.
Plaintiffs in Roundup cases argue that Monsanto failed to adequately warn users about the potential cancer risks associated with glyphosate, the primary ingredient in Roundup.
Bayer, which acquired Monsanto, has made significant financial settlements, reflecting the company’s legal responsibility in these cases.
These settlements, however, do not constitute an admission of guilt or wrongdoing by Bayer, but rather represent a strategic approach to manage the ongoing litigation and financial uncertainties related to these claims.
Following the classification of glyphosate as “probably carcinogenic to humans” by the IARC in 2015, hundreds of thousands of Roundup Lawsuits were filed against the manufacturers.
Thousands of individuals from various jurisdictions have continue to file Roundup lawsuits against Monsanto.
Victims have taken legal action on the grounds that their exposure to the herbicide led to their lymphoma diagnosis.
Numerous settlements and verdicts have been reached in Roundup lawsuits, totaling billions of dollars.
Our Roundup lawyers are still accepting new clients for the Roundup Lawsuit.

Past Notable Decisions and Settlements
Several significant court decisions and settlements have marked key milestones in the Roundup litigation landscape over the last few years.
Some cases resulted in substantial compensation for plaintiffs, while others set precedents for future legal proceedings.
Notable verdicts have favored plaintiffs, holding Monsanto/Bayer accountable for the alleged health impacts caused by Roundup.
In 2020, Monsanto (now owned by Bayer AG) settled the Roundup MDL for over $10 billion, being found liable for the glyphosate content of its flagship weed killer product.
Settlements were distributed to compensate thousands of plaintiffs who developed cancer from prolonged exposure to Roundup.
Recently, two plaintiffs also received compensation after filing Roundup lawsuits.
The plaintiffs were from St. Louis and Philadelphia and received $1.25 million and $175 million respectively.
On November 3, 2023, a man who developed cancer due to long-term exposure to Roundup was awarded $332 million in a jury verdict against Bayer AG.
This case took place in California, where Bayer AG is facing numerous other lawsuits for its toxic and cancer-causing weed killer.
During the court hearing, the Missouri judge and jury ruled in favor of the three plaintiffs, ordering Bayer AG to pay a total of $1.56 million in damages.
Legal Strategies Used by Plaintiffs and Defendants
Both plaintiffs and defendants have adapted their legal strategies in response to the evolving landscape of Roundup litigation.
Plaintiffs’ legal teams have refined their approaches, leveraging scientific evidence and expert testimonies to strengthen their cases.
Meanwhile, Monsanto/Bayer AG has adjusted its defense strategies, presenting counter arguments and challenging scientific studies linking Roundup to cancer.
According to Monsanto/Bayer, the EPA found that the glyphosate content in Roundup posed minimal risks.
To Monsanto/Bayer, this meant that the company wasn’t to blame for numerous parties developing cancer or lymphoma.
However, there’s sufficient evidence to show that the findings of the EPA were compromised as several internal emails and documents showed correspondences between Monsanto/Bayer executives and members of the EPA.
Nevertheless, the mountain of settlements paid to plaintiffs and significant jury verdicts suggest that court systems across the country are often ruling in favor of victims.
How Many Roundup Lawsuits Have Been Filed?
While many lawsuits have resulted in significant settlements, thousands are still being filed against the makers of Roundup.
Thousands of lawsuits were consolidated into multidistrict litigation (MDL).
The MDL was filed in the U.S. District Court’s Northern District of California as MDL 2741 and eventually settled for over $10 billion.
Currently, we are still accepting clients for new Roundup lawsuits.
If you or a family member have developed cancer or lymphoma due to exposure to Roundup, you may be eligible to file a Roundup Lawsuit.

Our lawyers will calculate these financial losses, including future earning capacity impairment, caused by the impact of your health issues on your ability to work.

Punitive Damages: In certain cases, we’ll pursue punitive damages to punish the defendant for particularly egregious conduct, serving as a deterrent to prevent similar behavior in the future.
