Monsanto Weed Killer Class Action Settlement of $45 Million, File Claim Now

Monsanto Weed Killer Class Action Settlement of $45 Million

Monsanto has agreed to pay up to $45 million as part of a class action settlement resolving false advertising and breach-of-warranty claims for some of its products, such as Roundup®, HDX® and Ace® weed and grass killer products.

Plaintiffs argue that Defendant falsely advertised and promoted the products by failing to disclose that their active ingredient, glyphosate, could potentially cause cancer or other adverse health effects.

Monsanto denies Plaintiffs’ allegations and any wrongdoing, but it has agreed to settle the lawsuit for the purpose of avoiding the time and expense of further litigation.
