Medical record summaries by legal nurse consultants
A record summary condenses the chart into what an attorney needs first: the injuries, the treatment, the providers involved and where the patient is now. It is shorter and faster than a full chronology, which makes it a good first step at intake, before deciding whether a merit review is worth it.

How it works
- 1. Post a redacted brief. Case type, specialties, page count, deadline and budget. We check it for names and identifiers before it goes live.
- 2. Compare proposals. Consultants in matching specialties see it first and propose a flat fee or hourly rate. Each attests to having no conflict with the parties you list.
- 3. Hire and share records. Pay through the platform; we hold payment until you accept the work. Records go into an encrypted workspace only your team and your consultant can open.
Deadline in under 10 days? Mark it rush.
Rush ($199) lists your case first and alerts every available consultant at once. Priority ($99) lists it first for a week. Either is refunded if no proposal arrives within 48 hours.
Questions
How is a summary different from a chronology?+
A summary is organized by topic and kept short; a chronology lists every significant event in time order with a citation. Many firms start with a summary and order a chronology if the case moves forward.
How long does a summary take?+
Usually a few business days, depending on the page count. Set your deadline on the case; consultants commit to it in their proposals.
Can the same nurse do the chronology later?+
Yes. Hire the same consultant again from the case, and the records stay in the same encrypted workspace.
Post a redacted brief, compare proposals
Describe the case without names. License-verified nurses in the right specialty send proposals with their experience and rate. Records are shared only after you hire, in an encrypted workspace.
Need a physician for causation or a certificate of merit? Request one from the case. Already work with a nurse consultant? Bring them into the same workspace on a plan.
