Comment (by wpteccho):

 This worked for me

 {{{
 $form_content = apply_filters('the_content', '[ninja_form id=14]');
 if (strpos($form_content, '[ninja_form') === false) {
     // Only use force_balance_tags if the content doesn't contain the
 Ninja Form shortcode
     $balanced_content = force_balance_tags($form_content);
 } else {
     $balanced_content = $form_content; // Skip force_balance_tags for
 forms
 }

 echo 'BALANCED:--' . $balanced_content . ' --END BALANCED. ';

 }}}
