CNOR-Certified OR Nursing Expert for Plaintiff Malpractice Attorneys

Perioperative Standard-of-Care Review, Surgical Liability Analysis & Expert Matching

✦ CNOR-Certified ✦ Active Circulating OR Nurse ✦ Surgical, Inpatient & SNF Cases

I review healthcare records to determine whether the documented care supports the theory of injury and where the key clinical issues exist before committing to expert retention.

When nursing care is involved, I help attorneys identify potential deviations from nursing standards and assist in locating the appropriate nursing expert when a specialty match is required.

How It Works

Step 1 — Send Your Case Summary

Share a brief case description and the medical records. I’ll respond within one business day to confirm whether the case is within my scope.

Step 2 — Receive Your Clinical Analysis

I review the records and deliver a written analysis identifying deviations from nursing standards, key clinical issues, and a liability assessment — before you commit to expert retention.

Step 3 — Decide How to Proceed

Based on my findings, you choose your next step — whether that’s moving forward with an expert, strengthening your theory of liability, or declining the case with confidence.


“We had a complex OR case with overlapping provider liability — surgeon, CRNA, and circulating nurse. Ryder mapped every provider’s duty of care and the specific moments each deviated from standard. That chronology became the backbone of our complaint.”
