Call Moll Law Group About Your Mass Tort Lawsuit<\/strong><\/p>\n

Mass torts are filed in civil court when there are many individual lawsuits against a defendant (or several defendants) for injuries arising out of the defendants\u2019 similar acts or omissions against the various individuals suing. Often devastating injuries are involved.<\/p>\n

Bayer\u2019s Roundup Litigation<\/strong><\/p>\n

Over 50,000 claims have been made against Monsanto and Bayer, which acquired weedkiller Roundup when it purchased the former, for alleged defects in Roundup. The weedkiller\u2019s active ingredient is glyphosate, which is carcinogenic. While Bayer did win most of the recent Roundup trials, there have also been verdicts that are collectively more than $1 billion, even in instances where they were reduced, which bodes poorly for the manufacturer. In 2020, Bayer settled certain Roundup cases for $10.9 billion, and it hopes to ask the Supreme Court to rule that federal law preempts these plaintiffs\u2019 claims. However, many cases are still ongoing, and 2025 will likely see more trials, though it\u2019s also possible another settlement will be reached.<\/p>\n
