Why Use a Legal Nurse Consultant

A Legal Nurse Consultant is a licensed nurse who brings to the attorney's practice specialized training, healthcare education and clinical experience to address medical issues in the litigation process. 

While the attorney is the legal expert, a Legal Nurse Consultant is the expert on the healthcare system and its inner workings.

• Nowhere else will the legal profession have access to this level of cost effective expertise for reviewing medical records, understanding and communicating the terminology and subtleties of the complex care delivery system. 
• The service provided helps the attorney client save time by freeing him or her to focus on the law and legal issues.

The Legal Nurse Consultant recognizes, interprets and analyzes relevant medically related facts in a claim or a case and helps the attorney client to assess merit, determine liability and quantify medical damages.

Because your clinical consultant has extensive experience in healthcare and specialized training as a Certified Legal Nurse Consultant, she brings value added services to the legal profession including but not limited to:

• Assess medical records and analyze the case
• Support the attorney's case
• Serve as the attorney's liaison
• Work with experts and other witnesses
• Assist with discovery and preparation for court
