Company Description

At Expert Institute, we are pioneers and disruptors in the legal space. Simply put, we pair attorneys with the perfect expert witnesses to win high-stakes cases and be the hero for the people, families, and businesses they serve.

In our history, we have had a helping hand in billions of dollars in settlements and verdicts for our clients. We have helped all kinds of litigators work on all types of cases including many national headline cases involving well-known brands like Google, Uber, Microsoft, Facebook, the NFL, the MLB and many others.

As a growing company, we have an entrepreneurial mindset (the same as our clients) which means our business model is calculated, fast-paced, and highly efficient. Once an attorney speaks with us, we immediately help them consult with industry specialists and key opinion leaders to educate and inform them while navigating through any theory of liability, causation, and damages.

Our medical research team is a tight-knit group of doctors and nurses that are passionate people; who thrive off a demanding, team-based environment. We’re looking to add a Legal Nurse (In-House) Consultant to our growing medical research team, who has the ability and experience of managing a heavy caseload remotely.

This professional will play a vital role in supporting trial attorneys in high-stakes litigation by bridging the gap between medicine and law. With a focus on precision and expertise, the Legal Nurse Consultant will leverage clinical knowledge to analyze medical cases, evaluate standards of care, create synopsis of medical records and connect attorneys with the most qualified expert witnesses.

Key Responsibilities:

Case Analysis and Support

• Analyze medical records to identify key facts and evaluate their significance.

• Provide detailed case assessments, highlighting potential deviations from standards of care. This will require research as well as review of the legal documents provided.

• Educate attorneys on medical terminology, treatment protocols, and industry standards.

Expert Matching and Collaboration

• Leverage clinical knowledge to identify and match attorneys with the most suitable expert witnesses for their cases, and facilitate communication and collaboration to align on goals and determine the most effective strategy for their achievement.

Research and Reporting

• Conduct in-depth research on medical topics to support case evaluations.

• Prepare clear and concise reports, presenting key findings and insights into complex medical issues to share digitally (and, at times, verbally) with law firm staff.

Team Collaboration

• Work closely with a high-performing team of doctors, nurses, and researchers in a collaborative, fast-paced environment. Collaboration should be comfortable for you.

• Contribute to process improvements, ensuring the delivery of exceptional service to clients. Our best products and services are built off of collaborative feedback.

• Act as a liaison between prospective clients and the sales team, working closely with both to communicate directly and show the depth of our legal nursing capabilities.

Experience & Education

• Active RN license with a minimum of 5 years of clinical experience. (Hires having worked in intensive care or critical care environments seem to prosper in this role.)

• Previous experience as a Legal Nurse Consultant specializing in pre-litigation and pre-trial services is highly preferred but not required.

• Academic teaching experience is highly preferential (comfortable teaching lawyers).

• Strengths in forensic medicine, medical malpractice merit analysis, and standard of care evaluations backed by training in advanced data analytics.

  Skills & Competencies

• Strong analytical skills with the ability to interpret and organize complex medical data.

• Exceptional verbal and written communication skills to effectively interact with attorneys and expert witnesses. Comfortable communicating with all personality types.

• Detail-oriented with excellent organizational abilities to manage multiple cases simultaneously, and to own and manage the process flows internally and externally.

  Mindset & Attributes

• Collaborative team player who thrives in a fast-paced, dynamic environment.

• Work on exciting and impactful cases, including those involving major brands and high-profile litigation. No two days look alike and neither do two cases.

• Collaborate with a passionate and talented team that values innovation and precision.

• Make a tangible impact on our clients by delivering exceptional insights and expertise.
