We all know that chemistry has provided us with many beneficial products in our daily lives. It has also on more than one occasion, provided us with products, that while in one area might be of corporate commercial benefit, for people, might be a cause of serious disease, and in some cases death.

Paraquat is one such widely used chemical product in the field of agriculture.

Its beneficial use is as a chemical agent for weed and grass control. It is a common herbicide in the agricultural industry, and it is highly toxic, not only to the plants it is designed to destroy but potentially – – and actually — to human beings.

Because of its inherent risks, paraquat’s application is limited to only those who have been licensed to apply it. Its dangers to human physiology, however, are not so limited.

By skin contact, by inhalation, by ingestion, a person may be poisoned by paraquat, resulting in permanent damage to health, or lasting disease. Lung, heart, liver and kidney damage and Parkinson’s disease have been directly caused by such exposure.

Lives have been permanently and negatively impacted. Lives have been lost.

There have not been adequate warnings of paraquat’s danger; you may already have been exposed to it, with or without your knowledge, and you may already be suffering from its life-threatening effects.

The immediate symptoms of paraquat exposure are pain and swelling of the oral cavity, then digestive disorders such as nausea, pain, and diarrhea. While these symptoms may be caused by a variety of factors, if you have, or may have been exposed to paraquat, you should immediately seek medical attention to address these conditions.

Then, while your medical needs are being cared for, it will be time to take care of your legal rights with respect to exposure to paraquat, and the damage it may have done.

You may be entitled to monetary compensation from the courts, and the law firm of Owen, Patterson & Owen has a forty-year history of protecting the rights of those who have suffered injury due to the negligent actions/omissions of others – a history which resulted in many thousands of plaintiffs’ verdicts. In other words, where the victims won compensation for their pain, suffering, lost income, and damage to their health.

At this time, we are reviewing individual injury claims against the manufacturers of paraquat products to seek justice and just compensation for the victims of this poison.

You might qualify as a member of this class of plaintiffs.

• We do not represent corporations.
• We do not protect insurance companies.
• We protect victims from the insurance companies who would otherwise seek to minimize the compensation of the injured – more interested in their bottom line, than in the rights of victims.
• We represent human beings who are seeking just compensation for having been victimized by the acts of corporations, by their products and practices, and by their failure to adequately warn people of the potential dangers of using those products.

Our successful history of representation makes for a reputation that causes corporations and insurance companies to stand up and take notice when we are the lawyers for the plaintiff.
