As a legal nurse consultant, I act as a specialized member of the litigation team whose professional contributions are often critical to achieving a fair and just outcome for all parties. I also assist attorneys in reading medical records and understanding medical terminology and healthcare issues to achieve the best results for their clients. As well as, screen cases for merit, assist with discovery; conduct the existing literature and medical research; identify standards of care; prepare reports and summaries on the extent of injury or illness; create demonstrative evidence; locate or act as expert witnesses.
