Weber Legal Nurse Consulting CEO to Address the Attorney’s Resource Conference in Detroit

Silvia Aninye will draw on her experience as an RN and Legal Nurse Consultant when she speaks about defense medical exams at Detroit conference, August 12th.

DETROIT, MI, UNITED STATES, August 8, 2025 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Silvia Aninye, the CEO of Weber Legal Nurse Consulting, will address assembled healthcare professionals and; personal injury attorneys and malpractice attorneys at the Attorney’s Resource Conference on Tuesday, August 12 at 3pm ET, at Detroit’s Garden Theater.

Aninye will explore how plaintiff attorneys decide if they should hire a Legal Nurse Consultant to be their eyes and ears in defense medical exams. Some opt to send a paralegal to the DME to observe as a doctor examines and questions the patient as part of a malpractice, workers comp or personal injury case.

Aninye says, “This does a disservice to the patient and the case because paralegals and attorneys do not have the medical background to truly understand the exam. Following the exam, the LNC needs to present an accurate report in terms that the legal team can understand.”

Aninye will also talk about the mindset of the LNC and the patient before, during and after defense medical exams. Aninye says, “Patient advocacy is uppermost in the mind of the LNC. The patient may be fearful and not fully understand the case. Part of the LNC’s job is to make sure the patient is put at ease and that the doctor is playing by the rules laid down by each state for DMEs.”
