Why should I use a Legal Nurse Consultant?
Whether you are a sole practitioner, an attorney with a large firm, a claims administrator, an insurance or fraud investigator or even a mediator, a thorough understanding of the medical and health care facts and issues and how they apply to your case is essential. A Legal Nurse Consultant is a valuable, cost-effective and time-efficient resource for anyone that is required to read, interpret, analyze and apply medical and health care information to a claim.

Do Legal Nurse Consultants only read medical records?
Legal Nurse Consultants provide a variety of services. Reading and summarizing medical records is only one. They can assist in all areas of case management including discovery, depositions, ADR and trial.

What is a Legal Nurse Consultant Certified (LNCC)?
A certified Legal Nurse Consultant is a registered nurse who has demonstrated not only a background in nursing, but also experience, education, and involvement in the specialty practice area of legal nurse consulting. Certification is granted by examination to registered nurses with at least 2,000 hours of current practice as a legal nurse and identifies professionals who have achieved defined levels of knowledge, experience and education in the medical legal system. The American Legal Nurse Consultant Certification Board administers the examination and is a member of the American Board of Nursing Specialties (ABNS).
