What Can I Expect From a Roundup Cancer Lawsuit
We will allow you to hold the weed killer’s manufacturer accountable when you pursue a Roundup lawsuit. The truth about Monsanto’s negligent behavior can help you answer the question of “why” this happened. It also means seeking money for damages to compensate you for all that you have lost because of cancer.
The Mitchell Firm describes the harm or damage you suffered as a preventable accident ( including accidental exposure to a carcinogenic chemical ). Based on financial losses, some injuries are considered economical. Medical bills often have a precise numerical figure associated with them. Other costs describe the non-economic losses. The decline in your quality of life, due to cancer, would be non-economic damages related to the pain you have to experience because of the disease. These losses are too painful to put a price on – but you still deserve to be compensated for them. Some of the compensation you can receive as a result of a Roundup claim include:
- Lost wages for the time the illness kept you out of work
- Compensation related to pain and suffering you experience due to the cancer
- Medical expenses
- If you lost a loved one to any form of cancer caused by Roundup, The Mitchell Firm will fight on their behalf and seek justice for wrongful death against Monsanto.
