Farm Workers Face Many Different Environmental Hazards With Roundup on the Job

If you are a low paid farm worker, you may have experienced many different types of hazardous environmental conditions on the job. You can be exposed to many kinds of hazardous that you ingest or breathe in during the day working in the field, and these hazards can include:1

  • Black carbon
  • Particulate matter
  • Nitrogen dioxide
  • Sulfur dioxide
  • Carbon monoxide
  • Diesel-related emissions from tractors
  • Fumes from farm machinery
  • Inhalation of smoke from crop residue burning

If you need to reach out to our legal team today, we are here to help and can take your call whenever you make it right now. We know that it is hard to talk about your Roundup exposure diseases and medical conditions with other people, but we have sensitive and compassionate attorneys working on our team. We are available to take your call at the Law Offices of Gary K. Walch, and you can talk to us today by dialing us at 866-INJURY2 or 866-465-8792. We will listen to your concerns and answer all of your questions related to your personal injury claim in this situation.

Migrant Workers Often Lack Access to Personal Protective Clothing in the Fields

If you work around chemicals, then you need to be given personal protection or clothing and face masks to protect your lungs and internal organs from inhaling or ingesting dangerous chemicals. If you are not given the proper protection when working in the fields and are exposed to Roundup toxins, you can call us to discuss about that issue in relation to your ailments and diseases. It can happen that there are accidental exposures to Roundup and other herbicides. If that is the case, you may not even know that you were exposed to Roundup and the dangerous chemicals in that herbicide product. But your employer knows which chemicals were used in the fields, and your medical problems may be just beginning to manifest, with constant workplace exposure to Roundup and the toxins in that herbicide.

Low Paid Workers Fear Retribution From Their Bosses to Tell of Roundup Exposures

If you have been exposed to Roundup chemicals and have experienced personal injuries, you can call our law office to review your claim. We understand that you may be hesitant to speak up to your employer regarding your claim. Sometimes low paid farm workers do not report their health issues or seek out healthcare for fear of retribution from their employers. But if you are sick from exposure to Roundup, you may need immediate medical care and attention, and may need to discuss your claim with a legal team who knows what you are going through right now.

Call Our Legal Team Even if You Are Still Under a Doctor’s Care for Roundup Chemical Exposure Disease

If you have questions regarding the worth, value or settlement procedures related to a Roundup exposure lawsuit, we are here to help. All that you need to do is to call our law office today to talk about your concerns. If you are still under the doctor’s care for your personal injuries related to Roundup exposure, we can still talk to you now about initiating a lawsuit based on the merits of your personal injury claim. It is a small step, but you need to call our legal team immediately. Your symptoms, problems and diseases related to Roundup exposure are not likely to just go “poof” and go away by themselves.

You may need extensive medical treatment and you might want to be reimbursed for those medical bills by the at-fault parties. When you think about your health and talking to a knowledgeable attorney today about your medical issues with Roundup, that makes sense, right? Just pick up your mobile phone and call us now.

We had two prior attorneys who were unable to settle our car accident case. We then hired Gary and Robert Walch and they not only got us both great settlements, but personally spent time with us explaining everything clearly. We couldn't be happier. Thank you! A.M. and M.A.
