Paraquat Lawsuits: The Hidden Dangers of Herbicide Exposure

Emerging research is revealing a troubling connection between paraquat, a widely used herbicide, and serious health risks. This toxic chemical has been linked to a range of conditions, including Parkinson’s disease, putting those regularly exposed to it at significant risk.

Evidence suggests that the companies behind these herbicides were aware of the dangers yet failed to adequately warn users or provide proper safety guidance.

If you have been exposed to paraquat or other commercial herbicides and have developed health problems, you may have grounds for legal action. Reach out to us today for a free, no-obligation consultation to see if you qualify for a claim.

Many victims are still unaware of the legal options available to them. Ongoing lawsuits aim to hold manufacturers accountable and provide compensation for those affected.

Legal action can also raise awareness about the dangers of paraquat and encourage stronger safety regulations for farm workers and communities.

Who Is at Risk of Paraquat Exposure?

Farm workers, landscapers, and individuals living near agricultural areas are particularly vulnerable to paraquat exposure. These individuals often come into contact with the herbicide through direct handling, inhalation of fumes, or inhaling dust particles contaminated with the chemical.

Long-term exposure to paraquat has been linked to serious health conditions, including Parkinson’s disease. This highlights the urgent need for proper safety precautions. In the U.S., nearly 90,000 new cases of Parkinson’s disease are diagnosed annually, many of which are potentially linked to toxic chemical exposure.

Studies have shown that even limited or occasional exposure may pose significant risks, especially for those without access to proper protective equipment. Paraquat can linger in the air, soil, and on clothing, creating hidden dangers that continue long after initial contact.

Affected individuals claim that manufacturers knew the paraquat pesticide was highly toxic and could cause severe health conditions, including Parkinson’s disease.

Exposure or ingestion of this potent herbicide leads to both severe short-term conditions and incurable diseases, such as:

Breathing difficulties
Elevated heart rate
Seizures
Muscle weakness
Progressive supranuclear palsy
Atypical Parkinson’s disease
Multiple system atrophy
Parkinson’s disease

Paraquat Lawsuit FAQs

Paraquat is a powerful weed killer that’s so toxic it's banned in over 30 countries. In the U.S., it can only be used by licensed professionals, but many farmers and people living near farms have still been exposed—often without proper warning. Studies suggest a link between Paraquat exposure and Parkinson’s disease. Companies like Syngenta, Chevron, and FMC continued selling Paraquat without warning users about the potential risks, even though safer options exist.

Thousands of people have filed lawsuits since 2017, claiming Paraquat caused their Parkinson’s disease. Many of these cases are now part of a multidistrict litigation (MDL) to streamline the process. Over 5,000 cases are pending in federal court, with the first major trial set for October 14, 2025.

If you've worked in agriculture or lived near farms, it's possible. Even small amounts of Paraquat can be dangerous, so if you think you’ve been exposed, you should talk to a doctor or poison control right away.

If you’ve been exposed to Paraquat and later developed Parkinson’s disease, you may be eligible for compensation. Start with a free case review, and if you qualify, a legal team will contact you to help with the next steps.
