CLNC® Success Story: My $100,000 Tax Return Put Me Over the Moon with Joy
I just finished my taxes and I am happy, no make that thrilled, no make that “over the moon with joy” to tell you that I earned more than $100,000 as a Certified Legal Nurse Consultant. The work started coming in faster than I could keep up. I just keep working hard trying to keep up with all of the work and make sure that I still put out top-quality work product. I was so happy when one of my attorney-clients forwarded my information to another law firm. I did a case for them and they were so happy with the “excellent legal nurse consulting work product” that I provided, they immediately forwarded another case to me.
I have been keeping so busy and I absolutely love being able to work for myself. I still have the law firm that I first started consulting for. I have also gotten cases from the medical-malpractice attorneys, nursing home negligence and more. I am keeping so busy that I am going to have to start hiring CLNC subcontractors. Luckily I met this incredible nurse and I convinced her to go through your CLNC Certification Program, which she just recently completed. Now that she is a CLNC consultant, I am ready to ask her to subcontract with me on my huge case load.
I currently have cases going to trial. I am working with three attorney-clients who are in the first round of trials and two attorney-clients in the second group of trials. These cases all need detailed chronological summaries – something that I have been providing to these law firms for deposition preps.
Anyway, I just thought I would let you know how happy I am that I became a Certified Legal Nurse Consultant. I love the way that I can combine my love and knowledge of nursing with my love of law. Thank you a hundred times over for helping me become a successful Certified Legal Nurse Consultant.
I hope my positive experiences will help other Certified Legal Nurse Consultants go for that BIG success. I feel honored to share my CLNC successes.
Sharon Miller, RN, BSN, CLNC
P.S.Comment if you would like to congratulate Sharon on her CLNC® success.
I am still in nursing school, but I have already decided I will pursue CLNC® work. As a 46 yr. old mother with 6 children (24 down to 3), it’s been tough — but I know it will be worth it in the end. So I’m keeping your letter as my inspiration to keep on keepin’ on! Like you, I love nursing (at least what I’ve experienced so far), and I’ve always been intrigued by the process of law. So I’m so happy to know I can combine both and be paid handsomely for my hard work in the process. I’ve had the feeling for a long time that someday I would own my own business…I just didn’t know what that would be. Now I do! Thanks again for your inspiring letter.
Yes, congratulations!! Way to go! I will remember this as I continue to try and build my own CLNC® business. Let me know if you need any help, I would be happy to help as a subcontractor.
Way to go Sharon! For those of us just getting started we need that inspiration! I truly hope you have created the lifestyle we all dream about while doing the work we love. After all, we are nurses–and we can do ANYTHING!!!
Congratulations Sharon!! Your inspiring story comes at a perfect time. Yesterday my doctor told me that after 35 years working in the medical field that my lifting career is done, “start using my brain instead of your brawn”. It was quite shocking at first, but then I knew what I had to do, get those marketing packets out and become 100% dedicated to my CLNC® business. I have been given the tools, now I just need to go for it! Thanks so much for sharing your inspiring story.
Wow!! Congratulations Sharon. This is fantastic. You are truly an inspiration. We met at the 2010 NACLNC® Conference in Nashville and after talking with you I felt for sure I was on the right path as I was on my way to begin my training at the Orlando CLNC® 6-Day Certification Seminar. Well, I just completed my training in April and I received word that I passed. So thank you for the encouragement.
Congratulations SHARON! You are an inspiration and a great testimony! It’s encouraging to hear that the CLNC® Certification Program is awesome and prepares you for the work. I am going to the CLNC® 6-Day Certification Seminar in Houston next week. I can’t wait. Any tips on maximizing the program? Did you study every night after each session? 🙂
How exciting! Congratulations to you! I’ve always believed that the way one thinks is everything, just as that wonderful quote states….if you think you can or you think you can’t, you’re right! My website is coming soon. I will be following in your footsteps thanks to the wonderful training I received at the CLNC® 6-Day Certification Seminar and 2-Day NACLNC® Apprenticeship in Las Vegas in 2009!
