A: A Wisconsin attorney could advise best, but your question remains open for five weeks. Most traditional tort and injury attorneys who handle personal injury cases such as motor vehicle accidents do not deal with exposure to hazardous substances. You could reach out to toxic tort attorneys in your state to see if it's possible to arrange a free initial consult. In terms of protocols you ask about with spraying pesticides, many states require pesticide applicator certification. A pesticide/herbicide professional would probably be more familiar with those procedures than most attorneys. Good luck
