If you or a loved one developed cancer, Parkinson’s disease, or another serious illness after long-term exposure to toxic weed killers or insecticides, you may be eligible to file a pesticide lawsuit.
At Salenger, Sack, Kimmel & Bavaro, LLP, we represent agricultural workers, groundskeepers, maintenance professionals, and families harmed by exposure to dangerous chemical pesticides. We’re currently reviewing cases involving Roundup, Paraquat, Dicamba, and Chlorpyrifos—four of the most controversial and legally challenged products in the U.S.
Yes. Mounting research shows a clear link between pesticide exposure and an increased risk of multiple cancers, especially for those who work in farming, landscaping, or live near treated areas.
Scientific studies and court evidence now link pesticides to:
Non-Hodgkin lymphoma
Prostate, lung, and esophageal cancers
Leukemia
Liver and kidney damage
Endocrine and thyroid disorders
The question “do pesticides cause cancer?” has been answered through both research and lawsuits—yes, they can and do, particularly with long-term or occupational exposure.
Key Health Risk: Non-Hodgkin lymphoma
Brand Owner: Monsanto (acquired by Bayer)
Legal Status: Billions paid in verdicts and settlements
Roundup cancer lawsuits continue to be filed, with new Roundup lawsuit updates emerging as 2025 bellwether trials unfold.
Does Roundup cause cancer? Multiple studies say yes—and juries agree. The Roundup lawsuit MDL is one of the largest in U.S. legal history.
Key Health Risk: Parkinson’s disease
Legal Status: Restricted in the U.S., banned in over 30 countries
Brand Owners: Syngenta, Chevron Chemical
Paraquat is a highly toxic herbicide. The Paraquat lawsuit now includes thousands of cases involving agricultural workers and licensed applicators.
The Paraquat cancer lawsuit is distinct from Roundup—while it isn’t primarily linked to cancer, it is strongly associated with neurological diseases, particularly Parkinson’s.
Key Health Risk: Crop damage, environmental harm
Often sprayed in conjunction with glyphosate
Farmers have filed lawsuits for crop drift damage, alleging Dicamba destroyed nearby non-resistant crops.
Though not as directly tied to cancer, Dicamba remains a key part of the broader weed killer class action lawsuit landscape.
Key Health Risk: Neurological damage in children
Linked to: ADHD, obesity, developmental delays
Now banned in food crops by the EPA (as of 2022)
If your child was exposed to Chlorpyrifos during pregnancy or early childhood, you may have a claim related to long-term developmental harm.
If you or a loved one has experienced health complications due to pesticides, don’t wait to seek legal help.

Were a licensed pesticide applicator
Lived or worked near farms, orchards, or public land treated with pesticides
Developed cancer, Parkinson’s disease, or other illness linked to toxic exposure

Endocrine system damage
Esophageal, prostate, lung, and colon cancers
Birth defects and developmental disorders

The question “does Roundup cause cancer?” has been answered in thousands of jury trials and scientific studies. Likewise, Paraquat has been repeatedly linked to the degeneration of dopamine-producing neurons in the brain—an early marker for Parkinson’s.
