There probably is, but it would be time consuming to find those few who do. That said, you do not need an Oregon attorney, you need an AZ one that does wrongful death. Just do a Google search for wrongful death attorney in the closest bigger city and then make some calls.

I don't believe so. If a worker is injured they should be guided by their insurer and not give statements.

It is probably too late if the body has been buried or cremated although there is a way to do some types of forensic autopsies on a body that... View More
