Our editorial process is designed to produce clear, accurate and useful information for patients, families and people exploring possible legal options. Medical and legal content can affect important decisions, so transparency and professional review are required.
Editorial independence
Advertising, sponsorship or attorney participation does not purchase favorable conclusions, rankings or inclusion in educational content. Commercial relationships are disclosed and handled separately from editorial research and review.
Source standards
We prioritize:
- U.S. government health, safety, regulatory, court and statutory sources
- Current clinical guidelines and drug labels
- Peer-reviewed research and established medical organizations
- Official state sources for state law and benefits
- Qualified expert interviews that are clearly attributed
We do not treat another marketing website as the sole authority for a medical or legal claim.
Authors and reviewers
Every substantive page identifies its author or editorial team. Medical claims require review by a professional whose credentials match the topic. Legal claims require review by a licensed attorney with appropriate subject and jurisdictional competence.
Reviewer biographies should disclose credentials, licensing, relevant experience and material conflicts. A reviewer does not endorse unrelated commercial services merely by reviewing a page.
Writing standards
- Use plain language and define technical terms.
- Distinguish evidence, expert interpretation and uncertainty.
- Avoid diagnosis, personalized treatment or legal conclusions.
- Do not guarantee legal representation, recovery or case value.
- Do not use fear, artificial urgency or misleading comparisons.
- Provide citations near material claims and a source list.
- Use one H1 supplied by the WordPress title; body sections begin with H2.
Updates and review cadence
Treatment, clinical-trial, drug, legal-deadline and regulatory content receives the most frequent monitoring. Each page displays published, reviewed and updated dates only when supported by internal records.
Suggested cadence:
- Treatment and major regulatory pages: quarterly or upon a material change
- State legal pages: every three months
- Evergreen medical and exposure pages: every six to twelve months
- Policies and disclosures: upon any operational change and at least annually
Corrections
We investigate credible correction requests promptly. Minor style changes may not require a note. Material corrections should identify what changed and when without erasing the prior error from internal records.
AI-assisted work
Automated tools may assist with research organization, drafting or formatting. Human editors must verify every factual claim, source, link and disclosure. AI output is never treated as a source, reviewer or substitute for professional judgment.
Conflicts of interest
Authors and reviewers must disclose financial, professional or personal interests that could reasonably affect the work. Attorney owners or related firms must not control editorial rankings or undisclosed routing decisions that benefit them.
