About the Creator
Hello, I’m Tracy Liberatore, Esq, PA, the creator of this course. With over two decades of experience as a Physician Assistant and a legal career built on graduating valedictorian of my law school class, I bring a unique perspective at the intersection of medicine and law. I founded Med Legal Pro LLC to bridge the gap between clinical practice and legal requirements, helping medical professionals write reports that are not only clinically accurate but also legally defensible. My career spans specialties including ENT, Head and Neck Surgery, Hematology-Oncology, Psychiatry, Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation (Physiatry), and Urgent Care, along with extensive experience in medical-legal consulting. This course was designed to give you practical, courtroom-ready skills in expert report writing and testimony preparation. My goal is straightforward: to help you convey your expertise with clarity, confidence, and credibility—both in writing and in court.
