What is a Legal Nurse Consultant?

A Legal Nurse Consultant is a Registered Nurse possessing the specialized knowledge and experience of nursing applied to the comprehensive review of medical-legal issues. Nurses receive advanced education to provide a greater service to attorneys, insurance companies, government agencies, healthcare organizations, and other organizations. Nurses complement the direction of a case by providing knowledge from experience, education and research. Legal Nurse Consultants review and analyze medical records, detect tampering in medical records, offer assistance with demonstrative evidence, evaluate medical information, and provide professional nursing opinions regarding the causation of injuries and the assessment of damages to individuals. We interview witnesses under the direction of our attorney clients to help elicit the truth in cases. Legal Nurse Consultants also conduct medical research and educate our attorney clients about the results and other findings. We provide reports and other presentations to the attorney to help in determining how to further find the truth in the case at hand. Nurses are more familiar with patient charting than physicians and can recognize errors or omissions in these charts. We can also recognize signs of tampering within the patients’ charts and records to cover up mistakes.

 

What is a Certified Legal Nurse Investigator?

A Certified Legal Nurse Investigator is a Registered Nurse or Legal Nurse Consultant possessing extensive experience in medical record review and analysis and the advanced training necessary to recognize what may be missing in the chart, replaced in the chart, or when a chart has been altered significantly.  The LNC Firm employs several Legal Nurse Investigators.
