It depends on where you want to work: Medical Examiner's Office, Hospital, District Attorney's office, etc. Once you know where you want to work, call the HR department and inquire the starting salary. As well you need to consider whether you want to be working with the dead or the living.
"A forensic nursing salary starts at around $26 per hour and can reach as high as $100 per hour depending on location, responsibility, education, and experience. Legal nurse consultants earn upwards of $150 an hour."
