FAQ

A Certified Legal Nurse Consultant (CLNC) is a registered nurse with specialized training who has successfully mastered the rigorous CLNC Certification Program. Legal nurse consulting is a field in which nurses use clinical knowledge and expertise for legal purposes. Attorneys, insurance companies, and governmental agencies hire CLNC’s to review and analyze medical records.

While the attorney is the legal expert, the CLNC is the expert on the healthcare system and its inner workings. Nowhere else will you find this level of cost-effective expertise for reviewing medical records and understanding the subtleties of the healthcare system.

From the moment a potential case comes in, the CLNC becomes an invaluable asset by identifying the medical issues, screening the case for merit and providing additional services relevant to your case.

The services of a CLNC are far more cost-effective than those of a physician. As the healthcare provider who is face to face with the patient every day, the Certified Legal Nurse Consultant can educate you about a wide range of medical issues. This knowledge saves you time and money when working with expensive medical experts.
