Nurses serve as expert witnesses and provide legal and other consultation for which they receive compensation. Although numerous articles describe the process of serving as an expert witness and providing consultation, the business aspects of such consultation is seldom addressed. Most nurses have little experience in managing the business and financial aspects of such consultation. To be a successful consultant, clinical expertise and business acumen are necessary. Suggestions are given for creating a system of record keeping, keeping track of expenses, billing for services, reporting expenses and income for tax purposes, and marketing services.
