What We Do
Legal Nurse Consultants is an independent consulting agency in Johnson City, Tennessee, serving many areas of the Southeast.Our services are rendered to attorneys and insurance companies for medical-related cases. We screen charts for merit, prepare reports, graphs, charts, chronologies, etc. We aid with discovery, prepare demonstrative evidence, and much more. We also check charts for tampering, attend IME’s (Independent Medical Exams) and help attorneys with any questions that they may havevrelating to the medical aspects of the case. We suggest persons for depositions if the attorney hasn't considered them, determine whether the standards of care were followed, and ascertain whether policies and procedures were up to date and followed. We will do as much as the attorney wants us to do. We start by reviewing the chart for merit, offering our suggestions to the attorney. If he/she takes the case, we dp whatever tasks the attorney needs from the medical standpoint.We go all the way to trial with the attorney if he/she so choses. We are a very important part of any litigation team. We maintain our certification by attending annual conferences, webinars, updates, reading, and participating in our professional organizations. We also have listservs where we can ask a colleague anywhere in the nation if he/she has ever encountered something that we are unsure of. We have many contacts and resources to make the attorney's job of having a positive outcome for his/her client easier, more cost-effective, less stressful, and more timely. We handle the medical aspects of a case thus freeing the attorney up to handle the legal aspects. Therfore, the case moves along more swiftly, to everyones satisfaction. We aid insurance companies basically the same way. If someone files a suit from a vehicular accident, they seek out an attorney. So, the insurance companies benefit from our services as well. Even health insurance companies benefit in the same manner. We can determine if certain procedures were really necessary, or if a less expensive procedure would have given the same results. We also help people if their insurance companies fail to pay as their plan states. We are able to multi-task several cases at a time, therefore helping many people. We're still nurses; we just use our knowledge to aid the legal community, helping justice prevail.
