Transform Your Nursing Expertise Through Personalized Mentorship

Build your “minor in law” with core legal fundamentals: terminology, court process, criminal-defense overview, specialty case types and basic law principles. This gives you the rock-solid legal grounding every legal nurse consultant needs.

Phase 2 – Practice (Live Casework)
Work up three real-world cases from start to finish. Attend targeted case trainings, complete each case report, then submit your work for detailed review by our CLNFJ mentors. This is the meat-and-potatoes training that turns theory into polished deliverables.

Phase 3 – Profit (Business Launch & Hands-On Support)
Put your skills to work: use our ready-made templates, scripts and swipe files to market, price, and pitch your services. As attorney inquiries roll in, we’re right beside you—via email, phone or Zoom—crafting responses and strategizing your first paid case in real time, so you launch and grow your practice with confidence.

Throughout all three phases, you’ll tap into live group workshops, unlimited 1:1 mentoring, and our private CLNFJ community—ensuring you’re guided at every step, from legal foundation to your first client win, and beyond!

ANCC'S Nationally Recognized Accreditation

When continuing education courses are approved by the California Board of Registered Nursing (BRN), they often meet the criteria set by the American Nurses Credentialing Center's Commission on Accreditation (ANCC). The ANCC's accreditation is nationally recognized and many state boards of nursing across the United States accept CE credits approved by ANCC-accredited providers. This widespread recognition means that courses approved by the California BRN, which align with ANCC standards, are generally accepted for CE credits in many other states. However, it's always advisable for nurses to confirm with their specific state board to ensure compliance with local continuing education requirements.
