The Roundup litigation is one of the largest mass tort cases in U.S. history. Tens of thousands of individuals have filed claims alleging that long-term exposure to glyphosate — the active ingredient in Roundup weed killer — caused them to develop non-Hodgkin lymphoma and other cancers. Here's where things stand today.
A Brief History
Roundup has been the world's most widely used herbicide for decades. Millions of Americans — homeowners, landscapers, farmers, and groundskeepers — have used it regularly. In 2015, the World Health Organization's International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) classified glyphosate as "probably carcinogenic to humans." That classification opened the floodgates for legal action.
Since then, juries have awarded significant verdicts in multiple bellwether trials, and Bayer (which acquired Monsanto, Roundup's manufacturer, in 2018) has set aside billions of dollars in settlement funds.
Where Do Settlements Stand Now?
Bayer has resolved a large number of Roundup claims, but the litigation is far from over. New cases continue to be filed, and courts are still processing existing claims. Individual settlement amounts have varied significantly depending on factors like diagnosis severity, duration of exposure, and the strength of the medical evidence linking Roundup use to the illness.
Still Filing?
Yes — new Roundup claims are still being accepted. If you used Roundup regularly and have been diagnosed with non-Hodgkin lymphoma or another form of cancer, you may still be eligible to file.
Who May Still Qualify?
You may be eligible for a Roundup claim if you meet the following general criteria: you used Roundup (or a glyphosate-based herbicide) on a regular basis — whether professionally or around your home — and you were subsequently diagnosed with non-Hodgkin lymphoma, chronic lymphocytic leukemia, diffuse large B-cell lymphoma, follicular lymphoma, mantle cell lymphoma, or other related blood cancers.
Even if you used Roundup years ago, your claim may still be valid depending on your state's statute of limitations and when you received your diagnosis.
What Should You Do?
If you or someone you love used Roundup and developed cancer, time is a factor. Statutes of limitations vary by state, and evidence can become harder to gather as time passes. The sooner you start a case review, the better positioned you'll be.
A free case review takes just a couple of minutes and doesn't commit you to anything. It simply helps determine whether your experience aligns with the current litigation.
