Ep 271 | Shelby Lodholz | Legal Nurse Consulting for Injury Attorneys (Omaha, NE)

"Strong injury cases aren't built on medical records alone — they're built on understanding what those records actually mean." The Lawyer Stories Podcast Episode 271 features Shelby Lodholz, BSN, RN, LNC, Founder of Shelby Lodholz Consulting in the Omaha, Nebraska area. With more than 21 years of nursing experience spanning critical care, surgical services, cardiology, procedural medicine, and intensive care leadership, Shelby now helps injury attorneys bridge the gap between medicine and law as a Legal Nurse Consultant. After reviewing thousands of medical records throughout her nursing career, Shelby understands how to identify key issues related to causation, damages, standards of care, and case strategy. Today, she works alongside attorneys to help them better understand the medicine behind their cases, locate and evaluate experts, prepare for depositions and trial, and build stronger, more defensible claims. In this conversation, we discuss the biggest mistakes attorneys make when vetting experts, the importance of professionalism and communication in litigation, the role AI should — and should not — play in evaluating medical issues, and how legal nurse consultants can provide a significant advantage in complex injury cases. Shelby also shares how her rural Nebraska upbringing shaped her work ethic, leadership style, and commitment to doing the hard work necessary to get things right. A fascinating conversation about medicine, litigation strategy, and helping attorneys better understand the cases they are fighting for every day. This episode presented by CallRail.
