Who Is Most at Risk of Roundup Exposure in Virginia?
Roundup has been widely used across Virginia, particularly in agricultural and landscaping industries. Certain groups face a higher risk of exposure to glyphosate, the herbicide’s active ingredient linked to cancers like non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma. If you belong to any of these groups, you may be eligible to file a Roundup lawsuit:
- Farmers and Agricultural Workers: Virginia’s farmers in regions like the Shenandoah Valley, Piedmont, and Tidewater areas often use Roundup to control weeds in crops such as soybeans, corn, and wheat. Prolonged exposure through spraying or handling can increase health risks.
- Landscapers: Professional landscapers in Virginia, working in cities like Richmond, Norfolk, and Virginia Beach, frequently apply Roundup to maintain lawns, parks, and commercial properties.
- Gardeners: Both professional and hobbyist gardeners who use Roundup for weed control in community gardens or home landscapes may face exposure risks.
- Homeowners: Virginia residents who regularly use Roundup for residential lawn care or gardening, especially in suburban areas like Fairfax or Chesterfield, may have been unknowingly exposed to glyphosate.
- Groundskeepers and Maintenance Workers: Those maintaining golf courses, school grounds, or public parks in Virginia often rely on Roundup, increasing their risk of prolonged exposure.
If you or a loved one in any of these groups has been diagnosed with cancer after using Roundup, contact Clinton O. Middleton, a dedicated Virginia Roundup lawsuit attorney, to explore your legal options.
The Dangers of Roundup and Glyphosate
Roundup, manufactured by Monsanto (now owned by Bayer), is the world’s most widely used herbicide, commonly applied in Virginia’s agricultural communities, landscaping businesses, and home gardens. Its active ingredient, glyphosate, was classified as a “probable carcinogen” by the World Health Organization’s International Agency for Research on Cancer in 2015. Studies have linked glyphosate exposure to serious health conditions, including:
- Non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma
- Leukemia
- Other cancers
Farmers, landscapers, and homeowners in Virginia who regularly used Roundup may be at risk. If you’ve been diagnosed with cancer after exposure, you may have grounds for a lawsuit against Monsanto/Bayer for failing to warn consumers of these risks.
Roundup Lawsuits in Virginia: What You Need to Know
Thousands of lawsuits have been filed nationwide against Monsanto, alleging that Roundup caused cancer and that the company concealed its dangers. In 2020, Bayer agreed to pay $8.8–$9.6 billion to settle existing Roundup claims, but new cases continue to emerge. As a Virginia Roundup lawsuit attorney, Clinton O. Middleton can help you navigate:
- Class Action Lawsuits: Joining a group of plaintiffs to seek compensation.
- Multidistrict Litigation (MDL): Consolidating individual cases for efficiency while maintaining your claim’s uniqueness.
- Individual Lawsuits: Pursuing a standalone case for personalized compensation.
Virginia’s statute of limitations for personal injury claims is 2 years from the date you discovered your injury was linked to Roundup. Acting quickly is critical to protect your rights.
