What the Paraquat lawsuits are about

Paraquat is a highly toxic herbicide used in commercial agriculture. Research has linked long-term occupational exposure to an increased risk of developing Parkinson's disease, a progressive neurological condition.

People who mixed, loaded, or applied paraquat β€” often without adequate protective equipment β€” are filing claims against the manufacturers, alleging the risks were known but not properly disclosed.

Who this typically applies to

Licensed pesticide applicators, farmworkers, and agricultural workers with direct, hands-on exposure to paraquat over a period of months or years.

You may qualify if:

  • You worked as a licensed applicator or farmworker with direct paraquat exposure
  • You were diagnosed with Parkinson's disease
  • Your exposure occurred before your diagnosis
  • Your exposure typically involved mixing, loading, or spraying the herbicide
Claims like this are governed by state-specific filing deadlines. Reviewing your case sooner preserves more options β€” there's no cost to check where you stand.

What a claim may cover

Every case is different β€” a network attorney will walk you through what applies to yours.

Medical costs

Past and ongoing treatment related to your diagnosis.

Lost income

Time away from work during treatment or recovery.

Pain & suffering

The physical and emotional impact of your diagnosis.

Common questions

Does this cost anything?

No. The case review is free, and if a network attorney takes your case, they're paid a percentage of any settlement or award β€” never a fee up front.

Am I suing my employer?

No. These claims are filed against the manufacturers of paraquat, not against your employer or farm operator.

What if I'm not sure I qualify?

That's what the free review is for. Submit the form and a network attorney will confirm your eligibility based on your exposure history and diagnosis.

How long does a claim take?

Mass tort claims are typically resolved over months to a few years, depending on how the litigation proceeds. Your attorney will give you a realistic timeline once they've reviewed your case.
