Successfully litigating the most
complex cases across the
country since 2000.
In late 2018, a California jury found Monsanto liable in a lawsuit filed by a man alleging that the company’s glyphosate-containing herbicide, Roundup, caused him to develop non-Hodgkin lymphoma. The company, which was bought out by German multinational conglomerate Bayer, was ordered to pay out $289 million in damages to the groundskeeper, who claimed to have used the product roughly 30 times per year throughout his career.
The lawsuit claims that Monsanto had known for years about the severe risks associated with using their product but failed to inform the public about it – and this isn’t the only lawsuit against the company. The often denounced company is currently facing thousands of cases alleging that their Roundup product has led to cancer and other serious illnesses.
If you are suffering from or have been diagnosed with non-Hodgkin lymphoma or another form of cancer, and have been frequently exposed to Roundup, you need the expertise of The Driscoll Firm, LLC to help fight back against this notoriously disreputable company.

Roundup is a commonly used herbicide that contains an ingredient known as glyphosate. This particular chemical has been widely used in numerous herbicide products to kill unwanted plants and weeds on private, public, and commercial properties all throughout the nation, and even internationally.
This product has been sprayed directly on crops throughout America’s farmland for decades. In fact, the product is the most widely used herbicide in the nation.
Shockingly, in 2015, a report drafted by the World Health Organization (WHO), along with several other independent studies conducted by various other agencies, found a link between cancer and glyphosate. WHO’s cancer research division, the International Agency for Research on Cancer, also confirmed a positive association between glyphosate and certain cancers like non-Hodgkin lymphoma. The latter study also found that glyphosate can damage DNA in both humans and animals.
Because of these reports, many other countries have outright banned the usage of the dangerous herbicide from Roundup.
For decades, Monsanto’s Roundup has been a go-to product for individuals involved in the agricultural and floral industries. Many of these workers placed their trust in Monsanto’s product, just to fall victim to its life-threatening side effects.
This dangerous glyphosate-containing herbicide has been commonly used by:
Even individuals (neighbors) living close to commercial farms or properties that frequently used Roundup could be susceptible to damages caused by the herbicide.
Most times, exposure to Roundup occurs in aerosol form, meaning the victims inhaled the substance as it was applied to crops or other plants. It isn’t uncommon, however, that victims also came into contact with the chemical through contaminated food or water, or while cleaning up weed killer chemicals.

While many environmental and genetic factors can cause all of the conditions and health hazards listed above and below, numerous studies have shown that glyphosate may also be associated with the development of:
It is worth noting again that these conditions may be linked to other factors, but if you suspect that Roundup was the cause of your injury or illness, it would be in your best interest to seek out a professional medical examination and diagnosis.
