Apply your clinical expertise to the intersection of healthcare and legal services as a Legal Nurse Consultant. In this role, you will support attorneys by analyzing medical records, evaluating injury-related cases, and providing objective, evidence-based medical insights. You will help clarify complex clinical information, establish medical timelines, and assess long-term care needs and associated costs. Working independently in a fully remote environment, you will contribute to informed legal decision-making through accurate documentation, medical research, and professional communication. This opportunity is ideal for an experienced Registered Nurse with specialized legal nurse consulting credentials and a strong commitment to accuracy, integrity, and professional standards. The position offers flexible, part-time contract work on an as-needed basis.

Medical Record Review: Analyze, review, and summarize medical records, highlighting relevant clinical findings, treatment history, injuries, and other essential details for attorneys and relevant stakeholders.

Medical Chronologies: Prepare clear, accurate, and well-organized medical timelines that present important events, diagnoses, treatments, and outcomes in chronological order.

Long-Term Care Assessment: Evaluate injured individuals' potential future medical needs and estimate the costs associated with ongoing treatment, rehabilitation, and other necessary care.

Objective Case Evaluation: Provide impartial, evidence-based assessments of medical information, maintaining professional integrity and distinguishing documented facts from clinical interpretations.

Medical Research: Identify, research, and reference relevant medical literature, professional guidelines, and other authoritative clinical resources to support case evaluations.

Expert Coordination: Identify and, when appropriate, interview qualified medical professionals who may provide additional expertise or testify in legal proceedings.

Professional Communication: Communicate findings, recommendations, and case-related information clearly and professionally in written and verbal interactions with attorneys, internal teams, healthcare professionals, and other stakeholders.

Clinical Standards and Compliance: Perform all consulting activities within the scope of Registered Nurse practice, maintaining confidentiality and appropriate handling of sensitive medical information.

Independent Case Management: Organize assigned work, manage competing priorities, meet deadlines, and deliver accurate, efficient, and high-quality consulting services.

Additional Responsibilities: Complete other related duties as assigned, consistent with professional qualifications and the requirements of each case.
