New York Roundup Lawyers Advocate for Cancer Victims
Our team of New York Roundup attorneys has represented thousands of victims of toxic chemicals. In doing so, we have recovered millions of dollars in settlement funds on their behalf.
However, we only pursue compensation from herbicide manufacturers, and do not file claims against our clients’ employers or suppliers.
No Legal Fee Unless You Obtain a Settlement
While compensation may be available to qualified Roundup claimants, victims are urged to act promptly. The #1 claim New York Roundup attorneys can make for cancer compensation is one filed within the Statute of Limitations.

New York Roundup Lawyer Files Cancer Lawsuits Statewide
NY Roundup lawsuits can be filed in state or federal court. Selecting a jurisdiction is generally based on: 1) whether any parties are located outside New York, and 2) the severity of weed killer injuries.
2nd Circuit Roundup Claims in New York
New York is part of the Second Circuit of the federal court system, and individual Roundup lawsuits can be filed at its local U.S. District Court. Herbicide appeals are heard by the 2nd Circuit Court of Appeals.
However, federal Roundup lawsuits filed in New York may be transferred to a centralized jurisdiction pursuant to a blood cancer Multi-District Litigation (MDL) Transfer Order. (Follow this link for our additional information on 2nd Circuit Roundup compensation.)
New York State RoundupClaims
New York Roundup lawyers can also file blood cancer lawsuits in the State’s county courts (NY Courts website). Civil Practice Law and Rules, found in New York Consolidated Laws, set forth the State’s procedural law for lymphoma and leukemia claims.
The State of New York follows a pure comparative negligence rule. Accordingly, a New York Roundup lawyer can recover damages for wrongful conduct by Monsanto/Bayer regardless of what portion of fault may be assigned to the plaintiff. However, the herbicide victim’s recovery may be reduced by their own degree of fault (if any).
