Paraquat Claims

As a highly toxic herbicide for weed and grass control, paraquat is frequently used in operations that focus on commercial crops. However, because it is a hazardous substance, paraquat is a restricted use herbicide, which means that only certified licensed applicators can purchase and use it for crops such as potatoes, cotton, soybeans, peanuts, sugarcane, and vegetables. It is worthy of note that paraquat poisoning and paraquat exposure are different, as the former occurs immediately, whereas the latter is a cumulative process. If you were exposed to paraquat as an applicator or someone working closely with a paraquat applicator and developed Parkinson's disease, you are eligible to file a claim to recover financial compensation.
