Candidates who have completed the requisite training may take an examination to become board-certified by ABLM. HistoryThe current American Board of Legal Medicine is a nonprofit organization incorporated in 1951 in the state of Delaware.[1][2] In 1980, the American Board of Law in Medicine, Inc. also was incorporated in the state of Delaware. To facilitate the recognition of Legal Medicine as a specialty, the two entities merged in 1987 with the surviving entity being the American Board of Legal Medicine, Inc. In 2007, the subsidiary American Board of Medical Malpractice was developed to certify professionals who hold a law degree plus a doctoral level health care degree other than M.D. or D.O.[3] OrganizationThe ABLM is governed by a twelve-member board, who elect their own chairman, secretary, and treasurer. Examination processABLM administers examinations to individuals with both legal and medical degrees. The Board has certified approximately 300 MD/JDs in legal medicine by means of computer-based or paper based examinations.[4] The ABLM also furnishes study materials and courses in Legal Medicine and Medical Malpractice.
