Disclaimer and Terms of Use
Last Updated: July 16, 2026
This page explains the terms that apply when you use BedsoreGuide.com (the “Site”). Please read it carefully. This Site is operated by Traction Law Group, PLLC (“TLG,” “the Firm,” “we,” “us,” or “our”). These Terms of Use (“Terms”) are a legal and binding agreement between you and TLG governing your access to and use of the Site. By using this Site, you agree to these Terms. If you do not agree, please do not use the Site. This Site is intended for adults; if you are under 18, please use it only with a parent or guardian.
The information contained on the Site is provided for educational and informational purposes only and is not, and should not be construed as, legal advice. As described further below, nothing on the Site is medical advice or should supplement or inform your medical decisions or a decision to seek medical care. The Site is not an offer to perform services on any matter, and it might not reflect the most current legal developments, verdicts, or settlements.
This Site is attorney advertising. Its purpose is to provide general information about Traction Law Group and the kinds of bedsore and pressure injury cases we handle. The content here is not a solicitation for any specific matter and may be considered advertising under the rules of some states.
Because some material on the Site is lawyer advertising and the Site may be viewed from anywhere in the United States, the rules of some states require particular disclosures. Traction Law Group adopts and makes the following disclosures:
Alabama: No representation is made that the quality of the legal services to be performed is greater than the quality of legal services performed by other lawyers.
Colorado: Colorado does not certify attorneys as specialists in any field.
Florida: The hiring of a lawyer is an important decision that should not be based solely upon advertisements. Before you decide, ask us to send you free written information about our qualifications and experience. The principal office of Traction Law Group, PLLC is located at 11891 US Highway 1, Suite 100, North Palm Beach, FL 33408.
Iowa: The determination of the need for legal services and the choice of a lawyer are extremely important decisions and should not be based solely upon advertisements or self-proclaimed expertise.
Kentucky and Oregon: THIS IS AN ADVERTISEMENT.
Mississippi: The Mississippi Supreme Court advises that a decision on legal services is important and should not be based solely on advertisements.
Missouri: Neither the Supreme Court of Missouri nor the Missouri Bar reviews or approves certifying organizations or specialist designations.
Nevada: The State Bar of Nevada does not certify any lawyer as a specialist or expert.
New Jersey: ATTORNEY ADVERTISEMENT — NOT A REFERRAL SERVICE. Before making your choice of an attorney, you should give this matter careful thought. The selection of an attorney is an important decision.
New Mexico: LAWYER ADVERTISEMENT.
New York: ATTORNEY ADVERTISING. Prior results do not guarantee a similar outcome.
Pennsylvania: ATTORNEY ADVERTISEMENT — NOT A REFERRAL SERVICE. Before making your choice of an attorney, you should give this matter careful thought. The selection of an attorney is an important decision.
Tennessee: None of the attorneys in this firm are certified as a Civil Trial, Criminal Trial, Business Bankruptcy, Consumer Bankruptcy, Creditor's Rights, Medical Malpractice, Legal Malpractice, Accounting Malpractice, Estate Planning or Elder Law specialist by the Tennessee Commission on Continuing Legal Education and Specialization. Certification as a specialist in all other listed areas is not currently available in Tennessee.
Texas: Unless otherwise stated, our attorneys claiming certification in an area of law are not certified by the Texas Board of Legal Specialization.
Wyoming: The Wyoming State Bar does not certify any lawyer as a specialist or expert. Anyone considering a lawyer should independently investigate the lawyer's credentials and ability, and not rely upon advertisements or self-proclaimed expertise.
The information on this Site is provided for general educational purposes only. It is not legal advice, and it is not a substitute for advice from a licensed attorney about your specific situation. Laws differ from state to state and change over time, and how the law applies depends on the exact facts of each case.
You should not act, or refrain from acting, based on anything you read here. The law differs in every jurisdiction, and you should not rely on any opinion except that of an attorney you have retained, who has a professional duty to advise you after being fully informed of all the pertinent facts and who is licensed in the applicable state. If you have a legal question, talk to a lawyer who can review the details of your situation.
Medical Information Disclaimer
This Site describes bedsores and pressure injuries — including how they are staged (Stage 1 through Stage 4, unstageable, and deep tissue injury), how they develop, and the complications that can follow, such as infection, sepsis, osteomyelitis, and gangrene — for general informational purposes only. Nothing on this Site is medical advice, and nothing here is a substitute for professional medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment. Descriptions of how pressure injuries are caused or graded are general and educational, and are not a clinical assessment of any individual's condition. Always seek the advice of a physician or other qualified health provider about any wound, injury, or health concern, and never disregard professional medical advice or delay seeking care because of something you have read or seen on this Site. If you think you or a loved one may have a medical emergency, call 911 right away.
Using this Site does not create an attorney-client relationship between you and Traction Law Group. That includes reading or relying on any page of this Site; calling, emailing, or texting us; submitting a contact form or free case review request; and sending us documents or information.
An attorney-client relationship is formed only when both of these are true: (1) we have agreed to represent you after reviewing your matter and checking for conflicts of interest, and (2) you and the Firm have signed a written representation agreement. Until that happens, we are not your lawyers and we have no duty to act on your behalf.
Important Notice
TLG EXPRESSLY DISCLAIMS ALL LIABILITY WITH RESPECT TO ACTIONS TAKEN OR NOT TAKEN BASED UPON ANY INFORMATION OR OTHER CONTENTS OF THIS SITE. Viewing the Site, or communicating with TLG by Internet e-mail or through the Site, does not constitute or create an attorney-client relationship with anyone and shall not be construed as legal advice. The content and features of the Site, including any means to submit a question or information, do not constitute an offer to represent you.
Because contacting us does not by itself make us your lawyers, please do not send us confidential or time-sensitive information through this Site, by email, or by web form until we have agreed in writing to represent you. Information sent to Traction Law Group over the Internet is not secure and is submitted on a non-confidential basis. Information you send before we form an attorney-client relationship may not be treated as confidential or privileged, and sending it does not obligate us to keep it confidential or to take your case.
If you have a deadline approaching, call us at (833) 236-8253 right away so we can talk with you directly.
Every case is different. The outcome of any legal matter depends on its own facts, the applicable law, and many factors outside anyone's control. Past results, general descriptions of the kinds of cases we handle, and any information on this Site do not guarantee or predict a similar outcome in your case. Nothing on this Site is a promise or guarantee about the result of your matter, including whether you will recover any money or what amount you might recover.
We handle bedsore and pressure injury cases on a contingency-fee basis, which generally means you pay no attorney's fee unless we recover money for you. The specific terms — including how attorney's fees are calculated and how case costs and expenses are handled, which are distinct from attorney's fees — are set out in the written representation agreement you would sign if we take your case. The terms of that agreement control. Please review it carefully and ask us any questions before signing.
Traction Law Group is based in Florida and reviews cases for injured residents, patients, and their families nationwide. The Firm's attorneys are licensed to practice law in Florida and New York. Where a matter requires counsel admitted in another state, the Firm may associate with, or refer the matter to, local counsel who are licensed in the relevant jurisdiction.
Nothing on this Site is intended to:
This Site may be considered advertising in some jurisdictions. The rules governing attorney advertising vary by state, and this Site is intended to comply with the applicable rules. If you are viewing this Site from a location where some or all of its contents may not comply with local laws or rules, the contents are not intended to be used by, or directed to, persons in that location.
The law is different in every state. This Site describes general or common rules that apply in some states, and it may describe verdicts or settlements in past cases. You cannot assume that the same rules apply, or that the same result would occur, in your state or in any particular case.
Statute of Limitations Warning
Deadlines matter most. Every state has laws called the “statute of limitations” that set a deadline to file a lawsuit. That means a lawsuit filed too late may be thrown out, regardless of the defendant's fault or the severity of the injuries. Some states have a two-year period for negligence and injury claims; the time period in other states may be longer or shorter. Certain situations — such as claims against a government-run hospital or nursing facility — have their own, often much shorter, notice deadlines, sometimes within a few months. If you miss the deadline, you can lose your right to recover anything, no matter how strong your case is. If you or a loved one has been harmed, you should consult a lawyer as soon as possible.
Any references on this Site to nursing homes, hospitals, healthcare systems, or other companies, and any use of their names or trademarks, are for identification and informational purposes only. Those names and trademarks belong to their respective owners, and their use does not imply that Traction Law Group is affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by any such company. This Site aims to hold facility owners and operators accountable for preventable harm; it is not intended to disparage the individual caregivers who do difficult work every day.
This Site contains links to third-party websites, including government and advocacy resources, for the convenience of our users. We do not control, endorse, or make any representation about those third-party sites, and we are not responsible for their content, availability, or privacy practices. If you use these links, you do so at your own risk, and we encourage you to review the terms and privacy policy of any site you visit.
We try to keep the information on this Site accurate and current, but we make no representation or warranty that it is complete, correct, or up to date. We may change, update, or remove content at any time without notice. Statutes, regulations, and case law change, and the information here may not reflect the most recent legal developments. We do not undertake to update the material on the Site to reflect subsequent legal or other developments.
TLG grants you a limited, revocable, non-exclusive, non-transferable license to access and view this Site for your personal, non-commercial use in accordance with these Terms. All content on this Site — including text, graphics, logos, images, video, trade dress, and software — belongs to Traction Law Group or its licensors and is protected by copyright, trademark, and other intellectual property laws. Except for viewing pages and printing copies for your own personal use, you may not copy, republish, distribute, transmit, display, frame, scrape, modify, create derivative works from, sell, or exploit any part of this Site without our prior written permission.
You also agree not to:
Any unauthorized use of the Site automatically ends the license granted above.
You are responsible for any information, content, or material you transmit to or through the Site (“Submissions”). By submitting a contact or case review form, you represent that the information is accurate to the best of your knowledge and that you have the right to share it. As explained above, information you submit before we agree in writing to represent you is considered non-confidential and non-privileged. We use the information you submit to evaluate your inquiry, check for conflicts of interest, and respond to you, as described in our Privacy Policy.
Calls between you and Traction Law Group — including our affiliates, agents, case managers, paralegals, and attorneys — may be recorded or monitored for quality, training, and case-intake purposes. If you provide a phone number, you agree that we may call or text you at that number about your inquiry, including through automated telephone dialing systems and prerecorded or artificial-voice messages where permitted by law. You certify and represent that any phone number you provide is your own and that you are permitted to receive calls and texts at that number. Message frequency varies, and message and data rates may apply. You can opt out of text messages at any time by replying STOP, or reply HELP for help. You also agree that we may email you at any email address you provide, or use other electronic means of communication to the extent permitted by law.
To the fullest extent permitted by law, Traction Law Group is not liable for any loss or damage arising from your use of, or reliance on, this Site or its content. TLG may periodically change, remove, or add material on the Site without notice, and such material may contain technical or typographical errors. Your use of the Site is at your own risk.
THIS SITE AND ALL OF ITS CONTENT ARE PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE,” WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, ACCURACY, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT. TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, IN NO EVENT SHALL TRACTION LAW GROUP BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO YOUR USE OF, OR INABILITY TO USE, THIS SITE OR ANY LINKED WEBSITE.
You agree to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless Traction Law Group and its attorneys, employees, and agents from any claims, damages, losses, or expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees) arising out of your misuse of this Site, your violation of these Terms, or your violation of any law or of the rights of any third party.
Any client testimonials, reviews, or endorsements that appear on this Site reflect the individual experiences and opinions of the people who gave them. They are not a guarantee, warranty, or prediction regarding the outcome of your matter, and your experience may differ. Testimonials are presented with any disclosures required by applicable rules, and prior results do not guarantee a similar outcome.
Only individuals who have entered into a mutually signed representation agreement with TLG are TLG clients (“TLG Clients”). Information provided pursuant to an attorney-client relationship will not be shared with third parties except with such precautions as are appropriate to preserve the confidentiality of the information and any attorney-client privilege that may attach to it. TLG takes commercially reasonable measures to secure and protect the information that we collect.
These Terms, and any dispute arising out of or relating to this Site or these Terms, are governed by the laws of the State of Florida, without regard to its conflict-of-laws principles.
Any such dispute will be resolved exclusively through binding arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association under its Commercial Arbitration Rules, with the arbitration seated in Palm Beach County, Florida. The arbitration will proceed on an individual basis only: the arbitrator may not consolidate the claims of multiple persons and may not preside over any class or representative proceeding. Judgment on the arbitration award may be entered in any court having jurisdiction. Any claim that a court of competent jurisdiction determines is not subject to arbitration must be brought exclusively in the state or federal courts located in Palm Beach County, Florida, and you consent to the jurisdiction and venue of those courts.
Waiver of Jury Trial
You understand that by agreeing to arbitration to resolve all controversies, disputes, and claims between us, you are waiving certain rights, including the right to bring an action in court, the right to a jury trial, the right to broad discovery, and the right to an appeal. In arbitration, a case is decided by an arbitrator (one or more), not by a judge or a jury.
This section applies to disputes about this Site and these Terms of Use. If the Firm agrees to represent you, your signed written representation agreement — not this section — will govern that relationship.
The Site is controlled, operated, and administered by TLG from offices within the United States of America and is intended for use therein. We make no representation regarding use of the Site outside of the United States.

We may update this disclaimer and these Terms of Use from time to time. Changes are effective when posted, along with the date shown in the “Last Updated” heading at the top of these Terms. Your continued access to and use of the Site after changes are posted means you accept the updated Terms. It is your responsibility to review the Terms regularly for updates.

If any part of these Terms is found to be invalid or unenforceable, that provision will be enforced to the maximum extent permissible and the remaining provisions will continue in full force and effect. Our failure or decision not to enforce a provision is not a waiver of it, and no waiver will be effective unless in writing.
