Editorial Policy — How This Website Is Written and Reviewed
Everything on saeedianlawgroup.com is attorney advertising under California Rules of Professional Conduct 7.1–7.5. This page explains who writes our content, how it is reviewed, what sources we rely on, and how we correct errors — so you know exactly what you are reading before you trust it.
If you spot something wrong on any page, email us at [email protected] or call (310) 288-3000. We fix errors quickly and note material corrections on the page.
Saeedian Law Group APC publishes legal information for California accident victims and their families. The pages on this website — practice-area guides, city-specific injury pages, FAQ entries, and blog articles — are written, reviewed, and maintained under the standards described on this page. Nothing here creates an attorney-client relationship. Nothing here substitutes for advice from a licensed California attorney who has reviewed the facts of your case.
Our goal is to give injured Californians accurate, current, plain-English information about their rights — without the inflated promises and recycled jargon that fill most personal injury websites. If you are reading a page on this site, you should be able to check every statute citation on leginfo.legislature.ca.gov and every case citation in the official California reporters. That is the standard.
Who Writes and Reviews Our Content
Every substantive legal page on saeedianlawgroup.com is reviewed by Michael Saeedian, founding attorney of Saeedian Law Group APC. Michael is licensed to practice law in California (State Bar Number 265470) and has been in good standing since admission in 2009. You can verify his current standing at any time on the California State Bar’s public licensee directory.
Three stages of review before any legal page goes live:
- Legal accuracy pass — statutes, case citations, and regulatory references checked against the current official sources
- Readability pass — legalese rewritten into plain English that a non-lawyer injured person can actually use
- Attorney sign-off — final read and approval by Michael Saeedian before publication
- Annual re-review — every legal page audited at least once per year, and immediately when CA law changes
- Correction tracking — material corrections to legal content noted at the bottom of the page with the date

Our legal content is built from primary sources. When we cite a statute, we link directly to the official text at leginfo.legislature.ca.gov, the California Legislative Information portal. When we cite case law, we use the full official reporter citation so readers and their attorneys can look it up themselves. Regulatory content is cited to the agency’s published rule with a link to the authoritative source.
What we cite, and where it comes from
CCP §335.1, Civil Code §2100, Gov Code §911.2, Health & Safety Code §1799.102, and every other statute we cite — linked to leginfo.legislature.ca.gov.
Full official reporter citations to California Supreme Court and Court of Appeal decisions — Rowland v. Christian, Howell v. Hamilton Meats, Ann M. v. Pacific Plaza, and others.
FMCSA hours-of-service rules (49 CFR Part 395), Cal/OSHA standards, CDPH nursing-home regulations, and FDA recall notices — cited to the agency.
Injury descriptions drawn from peer-reviewed medical literature, CDC data, American Academy of Neurology guidelines, and the Glasgow Coma Scale — not generic web content.
Settlement and verdict ranges built from published California appellate decisions, jury verdict reporter entries, and the firm’s own documented past results.
California Insurance Code provisions, DOI bulletins, and Fair Claims Settlement Practices regulations — cited so readers can read the actual text.
Settlement and Verdict Figures
When pages reference settlement ranges or case value examples, those figures represent published California appellate decisions, jury verdict reporter entries, or the firm’s own past results. Past results never guarantee future outcomes. Every case is fact-specific. Two cases with identical injuries can settle for wildly different amounts based on venue, liability clarity, defendant insurance coverage, comparative-fault percentages, the plaintiff’s pre-injury earning capacity, and dozens of other variables that only become clear during discovery.
We do not use inflated or cherry-picked numbers to make our pages look more impressive. If we list a range on a page, that range reflects what we have actually seen in similar venues — not the highest-ever reported outcome. Our case-value estimator tool uses the same discipline.
Medical and Scientific Content
Injury pages sometimes describe medical conditions — traumatic brain injury grading, spinal-cord injury levels, burn-degree classification, fracture healing timelines. Those descriptions are drawn from peer-reviewed medical literature and published clinical guidelines, not generic web content. Sources include the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, the American Academy of Neurology, the American Burn Association, the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons, and the Glasgow Coma Scale and Abbreviated Injury Scale standards used in emergency medicine.
Medical content is written in plain English for injury victims who are trying to understand what the doctor said. It is not a substitute for medical care and is not a diagnosis. If a page describes a condition that matches what you are experiencing, see a physician — not a lawyer — about the medical question.
What We Do Not Do
The legal marketing industry has built a set of habits that are either forbidden by California’s Rules of Professional Conduct or that mislead injured people. We do not follow those habits. Here is what you will not find on this website and why.
No honest lawyer can predict what a case settles or tries for. California Rule 7.1 prohibits attorney communications that create unjustified expectations.
No stock-photo “clients,” no AI-generated faces. Testimonials come from actual former clients who gave written permission to publish their words.
We do not pay for positive reviews, and we do not suppress negative ones. If a review is factually false, we may respond publicly; we do not take it down.
Any award or recognition on this site is one Michael Saeedian actually earned from an independent source — not a vendor who charges lawyers for placement.
AI tools may assist with drafting or research, but no legal content goes live without being read, corrected, and signed off by Michael Saeedian.
We do not pay non-lawyer lead generators for case referrals. That arrangement is prohibited by California law and we refuse it.
Accuracy, Updates, and Corrections
California law changes. Statutes are amended, new case law issues from the Supreme Court and Courts of Appeal, insurance-code provisions shift with each legislative session, and administrative agency rules update on their own cycles. We audit the pages on this site at least once per year, and again whenever we become aware of a change that affects what a page says. The “Last Updated” date at the top of every substantive page reflects the most recent review of that specific page — not the date a footer was copy-pasted.
⚠ Found an Error? Tell Us.
If you find something on this site that is wrong — a statute citation that is out of date, a case name misspelled, a factual claim that does not match your experience — tell us. We fix errors.
Email: [email protected] with the page URL and a short description of what is wrong. We review it and either correct the page or explain why the current version is accurate. Material corrections are noted at the bottom of the page with the date.
Advertising, Referrals, and Fee Arrangements
Every page on this site is attorney advertising under the California Rules of Professional Conduct and is labeled as such at the top. Saeedian Law Group APC handles personal injury matters on a contingency fee basis — no recovery, no fee — and fee agreements are disclosed in writing before representation begins, as required by Business & Professions Code §6147.
We accept referrals from other California attorneys. Any fee-sharing arrangement between referring counsel and Saeedian Law Group APC is documented in writing and disclosed to the client, consistent with Rule 1.5.1. Clients sign the agreement before it takes effect.
Contingency Fee Only
You pay nothing unless we recover compensation for you.
No up-front fees. No hourly billing. No costs along the way. If there is no recovery, there is no fee. Fee agreement terms — including the contingency percentage and how case costs are handled — are in writing, signed before representation begins, per Business & Professions Code §6147.
Accessibility and User Data
We build this site to meet Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1 Level AA. If you encounter a barrier — a page element that does not work with a screen reader, a color-contrast issue, a form that traps keyboard focus — tell us at [email protected] and we fix it.
Our privacy practices, including what we collect through contact forms, chat widgets, and analytics, are explained in full in our Privacy Policy. Communications sent through contact forms on this site are not automatically covered by the attorney-client privilege until representation is formally established. Do not send confidential case details through a website form before we have agreed to represent you.
