Paraquat Lawsuit Review

Paraquat Lawsuit: Filing a Parkinson’s Disease Claim

Paraquat is a commercial strength herbicide used in commercial agriculture for weed and grass control. It is also a toxic chemical that the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) classifies as “restricted use”. Among many other health hazards, Paraquat exposure has been linked to Parkinson’s disease.

If you or someone close to you were diagnosed with Parkinson’s after being exposed to Paraquat, you may be entitled to compensation for your illness and other damages.

What is Paraquat and Where is it Used?

Paraquat, also known as Paraquat dichloride, is one of the most widely used herbicides in the world. Its use has been banned in the European Union, Switzerland, and a few other countries but it is legal to use in the United States under some restrictions.

Paraquat is used on farms to kill grass, unwanted vegetation, and weeds. Because of the serious health risks associated with this toxic chemical, the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has placed it on a list of “restricted use” chemicals. Only commercial farmers who have specific licenses are allowed to purchase, handle and use paraquat.
