Many people contact counsel after a diagnosis and then realize they have a pattern that fits herbicide exposure—such as:
- Regular use of weed killer at home or on a rental property
- Hiring landscapers who apply herbicides around driveways, sidewalks, or common areas
- Working in roles tied to groundskeeping, maintenance, or outdoor facilities
- Handling residue indirectly (for example, contaminated clothing, gloves, or equipment)
- Being near treated areas during or shortly after application
In these cases, the key is proving more than a possible connection. Texas courts generally require evidence that supports causation in a medically credible way—not just suspicion.
