is legal nurse consulting worth pursuing?

I'm in the South.


If you are truly interested in the career, then start researching educative entities (check out the sticky threads found at the top of this forum and read through other threads, too).

You are not obligated to market in your state only. You can branch out to other states. And, the attorney who told you this is in one area only. Ohio is a big state filled with many many attorneys.

Good luck.
