Chicago Illinois Roundup Lawsuit Settlement Attorneys
Bayer, the parent company of Monsanto (the original manufacturer of Roundup), has faced numerous lawsuits by Illinois Roundup lawyers. These cases allege that Roundup’s active ingredient, glyphosate, contributes to cancer, specifically non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma.
As of 2021, Bayer announced plans to settle a substantial portion of the Illinois and national Roundup lawsuits for a total amount of around $10.9 billion. This Roundup settlement was expected to resolve a significant portion of existing Illinois claims.
Compensation for Future Victims
Bayer also proposed the creation of a compensation program to address future Illinois lawsuits related to Roundup exposure and cancer. The program aimed to provide compensation to individuals who developed non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma after using Roundup. However, despite the settlements, Illinois Roundup lawyers continue to bring claims related to Roundup exposure. Moreover, some individuals may choose not to participate in settlement programs and pursue individual lawsuits instead.
Scientific Evaluation of Glyphosate
The scientific community remains divided on the association between glyphosate exposure and cancer. While some studies suggest a potential link, regulatory agencies such as the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) have maintained that glyphosate is not likely to be carcinogenic to humans when used according to label directions.
