A CLNC® consultant is a registered nurse who has successfully mastered the rigorous CLNC® Certification Program developed by the company that pioneered the field of legal nurse consulting. The CLNC® has the expertise to quickly pinpoint and interpret medical and nursing issues in any case involving health, illness or injury.

While the attorney is the legal expert, the CLNC® consultant is the expert on the healthcare system and its inner workings.

From the moment a potential case comes in, the CLNC® consultant becomes an invaluable asset by identifying the medical issues, screening the case for merit and providing 30 CLNC® services relevant to your case.

The services of a CLNC® consultant 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.
