In a professional and judicious method, Legal Nurse Services helps attorneys and insurance companies win cases by discovering the key factors of cases utilizing nursing and healthcare expertise, cutting edge research techniques and the most up to date training in medical-legal nurse consulting. |
The American Bar Association reports having over 400,000 members. It is estimated that twenty five percent of these legal professionals deal with medical related cases. Attorneys rely on specially trained Certified Legal Nurse Consultants to help them win their healthcare and medical related cases for their clients.
Few attorneys know how to read medical records or understand the terminology and subtleties of healthcare issues. While the attorney is the expert on legal issues, the Certified Legal Nurse Consultant is the expert on nursing, the healthcare system and its inner workings. Legal nurse consultants bring specialized education and expertise to the medically related issues of the litigation process. Many medical legal cases are too voluminous and technical to be reviewed by someone without healthcare experience and knowledge of the medical system. Due to extensive education, training and expertise in the medical arena, a legal nurse consultant can prove to be an invaluable asset to a law firm. Legal nurse consultants have a background of clinical experience that includes interpretation of medical records, documents, medical-legal issues and knowledge of standards of care. |
