Medical Record Reviews & Chronologies

Clear, Clinically Sound Medical Analysis for Florida Attorneys

Medical Record Reviews & Chronologies

Behind Every Case Is a Story Hidden in the Records

And it takes a trained medical professional to find it.

For attorneys handling personal injury, medical malpractice, or nursing home cases, the medical records can either strengthen your case — or raise critical concerns. But with thousands of pages of clinical data, inconsistent timelines, and multiple providers involved, it’s not always easy to see what truly happened.

Melissa Sims, RN, BSN, CLNC, CNLCP, LCP-C, provides objective medical record reviews and clear, organized chronologies to help Florida attorneys better understand their cases and prepare with confidence.

The Problem Medical Record Reviews & Chronologies Solve

Missing or contradictory documentation
Difficulty identifying key clinical events
Limited bandwidth to cross-reference bills, records, and provider notes

Melissa’s background in both nursing and litigation makes her uniquely skilled at spotting what matters and organizing it in a way attorneys can use.
