Testimonials
“I found the legal information most helpful. The book did a great job defining legal definitions and helping you understand what the Legal Nurse Consultants’ job actually entails. I also enjoyed the “hands on” portion of the course.”

2.  Why A Nurse and Not A Doctor?

  • The Nurse is the primary care giver of the patient and often is the first one to identify problems in assessments, change in mental status, lab abnormalities, and other observations in patient condition.
  • A MD cannot speak on behalf of a nurse when it comes to nursing, related issues, or standards of care. Nurses are much more knowledgeable of hospital policies and procedures.
  • A Legal Nurse Consultant will save time and money, weed out non-meritorious cases, and give vital information in terms your client can understand.

3.  Why Not A Paralegal?

  • The Legal Nurse Consultant brings clinical experience, medical training and terminology to the investigation of a case.
  • A paralegal might be able to read the chart but lacks the clinical knowledge to know what information is missing from the records and what actions should have been taken in a specific clinical situation.

4.  Why would an attorney need an Independent Nurse Consultant?

  • Many times with heavy case loads and rushed deadlines, an attorney can use an independent consultant to do important tasks. For instance, locating the right nurse or physician expert witness and researching medical data. Using an independent Legal Nurse Consultant provides cost-effective support for heavy case loads without hiring another employee full-time.
