Do I Qualify for the Roundup Lawsuit?
Last updated: April 10, 2026
Who Qualifies for the Roundup Lawsuit?
Primary Requirements
-
You were exposed to Roundup or other glyphosate-based herbicides — Through occupational use, residential use, or proximity to spraying
-
You were diagnosed with Non-Hodgkin Lymphoma — Or a related cancer
-
There is a temporal connection — Your exposure occurred before your diagnosis
Qualifying Cancers
The strongest cases involve diagnoses of:
- Non-Hodgkin Lymphoma (NHL) — All subtypes
- B-cell lymphoma
- T-cell lymphoma
- Diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL)
- Follicular lymphoma
- Mantle cell lymphoma
- Chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL)
- Multiple myeloma
- Other lymphomas and blood cancers (case-by-case basis)
Types of Qualifying Exposure
| Exposure Type | Examples |
|---|---|
| Occupational - Heavy | Farmers, landscapers, groundskeepers who applied Roundup regularly for years |
| Occupational - Moderate | Workers who occasionally used Roundup or worked in treated areas |
| Residential - Heavy | Homeowners with extensive yard/garden use over many years |
| Residential - Moderate | Periodic homeowner use over time |
| Environmental | Living near agricultural operations using glyphosate |
Factors That Strengthen Your Case
- Long duration of exposure — Years or decades of regular Roundup use
- High frequency of exposure — Multiple times per week or month
- Documentation of use — Employment records, purchase records, photos
- Direct contact — Mixing concentrated herbicide, spraying without protective equipment
- Medical records confirming NHL or related cancer diagnosis
- No other obvious cause — No family history or other risk factors
- Time gap — Sufficient time between exposure and diagnosis (typically 5-30 years)
You May Still Qualify If...
- Your exposure was decades ago — NHL has a long latency period
- You used Roundup as a homeowner (not just occupationally)
- You're not sure exactly how much you used
- You had other risk factors (family history doesn't automatically disqualify you)
- A loved one died from NHL after Roundup exposure
- You used a generic glyphosate product, not just Roundup brand
What Compensation Could You Receive?
| Type of Damages | Description |
|---|---|
| Medical expenses | Cancer treatment, chemotherapy, radiation, hospitalization |
| Future medical costs | Ongoing treatment, monitoring, recurrence treatment |
| Lost wages | Income lost during illness and treatment |
| Loss of earning capacity | If unable to return to previous work |
| Pain and suffering | Physical pain and emotional distress |
| Loss of quality of life | Impact on daily activities |
| Wrongful death | If a loved one passed away from NHL |

Common Eligibility Questions
I used Roundup for years but only on my home garden — do I qualify? Yes. Residential use can qualify, especially if it was significant (regular use over many years).
My exposure was 20 years ago — is it too late? No. NHL has a long latency period. Statutes of limitations typically run from diagnosis, not exposure. You may have a viable claim even with old exposure.
I have family history of cancer — can I still file? Yes. Family history is one factor among many. It doesn't automatically bar you from filing. An attorney will evaluate the totality of your situation.
My loved one passed away from NHL — can I file on their behalf? Yes. Surviving family members can file wrongful death claims for those who died from NHL after Roundup exposure.
I used a generic glyphosate product, not Roundup brand — does that matter? You may still qualify. The litigation has expanded to address glyphosate broadly, not just the Roundup brand name.
