Paraquat Linked to Parkinson’s Disease

Paraquat Lawsuits 

Mounting evidence suggests a link between commercial herbicides like Gramoxone and health risks. The widely-used toxic chemical Paraquat has been linked to several health-related issues, such as Parkinson's disease.

Manufacturers were allegedly aware of the health risks associated with these herbicides and failed to properly inform users on how to protect themselves.

If you were exposed to a commercial herbicide, contact us today for a free, no-obligation consultation to see if you qualify to file a claim against the herbicide's manufacturers.

Who is At Risk of Exposure?

Farm workers, landscapers, and individuals living near farmland are most at risk of paraquat exposure. Most come into contact with the herbicide through direct application, inhalation of fumes, or contaminated dust.

Long-term exposure can lead to serious health issues, including Parkinson’s disease, making protective measures crucial for at-risk individuals. Nearly 90,000 people are diagnosed with Parkinson's disease in the U.S. each year.

  • Slowed movements

  • Rigid or stiff limbs

  • Difficulty swallowing

Symptoms of Parkinson's Disease Include:

If you were diagnosed with Parkinson's disease after exposure to commercial herbicides, you may qualify for compensation from the herbicide manufacturers.

This is a Mass Tort, Not a Class Action
What's the difference?

In a mass tort, victims are treated as individuals and the specific merits of each claim are taken into consideration. In a class action, every victim has a similar injury and is treated identically.

The benefit of mass tort litigation is that plaintiffs have more power in settlement negotiations which ultimately lead to significantly greater payouts compared to class actions.

  • Settlements and payouts tend to be significantly higher compared to class action awards
  • Plaintiffs have more power in settlement negotiations

Mass Tort Payments
Victims getting what they deserve
