Profile

Jen Smock, BSN, RN, CCM®, CNLCP®, LNCC®

I am a Certified Nurse Life Care Planner and Forensic Nurse Consultant with a clinical and forensic focus on complex and catastrophic injury cases. My work centers on developing evidence-based, defensible life care plans that account for the full scope of an individual’s future medical and care needs.

With a background in case management, clinical nursing, and forensic analysis, I bring a rigorous, detail-oriented approach to every case. I work with attorneys, insurers, and medical teams to ensure that life care plans are thorough, clinically sound, and aligned with current standards of care.

My practice emphasizes cases involving neurologic injury, medically contested conditions, non-fatal strangulation, and other presentations requiring careful integration of complex medical records and clinical judgment.
