What is a Certified Legal Nurse Consultant?
A certified legal nurse consultant (CLNC) is a registered nurse who uses experience and existing knowledge as a healthcare
professional plus specialized training as a CLNC to consult with attorneys on medical and healthcare related cases.
Attorneys rely on these specially trained Registered Nurses in cases as simple as neck injuries caused by auto accidents and
as ground breaking as major workplace violence cases, the most recent pharmaceutical cases such as Vioxx and tobacco industry
litigation. A Certified Legal Nurse Consultant's expertise is also valuable in medical malpractice and long term care
litigation cases.
