Lawsuits involving chlorpyrifos allege that long-term exposure to this widely used agricultural pesticide may be linked to an increased risk of Parkinson’s disease. Plaintiffs claim manufacturers failed to adequately warn farmworkers and nearby residents of the risks. If you were exposed to chlorpyrifos in California and later developed Parkinson’s disease, you may be eligible to pursue compensation.
Chlorpyrifos and Parkinson's Disease
Chlorpyrifos (CPF) is an organophosphate pesticide once widely sprayed on crops across California’s agricultural regions.
Peer-reviewed studies have associated exposure to chlorpyrifos and similar organophosphate pesticides with a higher risk of developing Parkinson’s disease.
California banned agricultural use of chlorpyrifos in 2020 after years of documented health and environmental concerns.
Farmworkers and people who lived near treated fields may have faced years of exposure before the ban took effect.
Do I Qualify for a Chlorpyrifos Lawsuit?
You may be eligible if all of the following apply:
You were exposed to chlorpyrifos in California — through work or at home.
You were later diagnosed with Parkinson’s disease.
You can identify the diagnosing or treating provider (a long-term neurologist is preferred).
You are not currently represented by another law firm for a chlorpyrifos-related claim.
Qualifying exposure includes: working in or near fields with significant chlorpyrifos applications, or living within roughly 300 feet of treated fields or crops (not separated from them by a highway).
