*Bar Membership: Bar Membership: Our attorneys are licensed in various states (see Team) and they practice in the states in which they are licensed.  We do not represent anyone based solely on a visit to our website. For more information please contact us. Clients in states other than those in which our attorneys are members of the Bar should consider seeking independent legal counsel from an attorney who is a member of the Bar in those particular states where the advice involves state law.  On occasion our attorneys will co-counsel with such local attorneys.

No Attorney-Client Relationship: The materials in this website have been prepared by the Cohen Healthcare Law Group, PC (“Law Group”) for informational purposes only and are not legal advice or counsel. Transmission of the information is not intended to create, and receipt does not constitute, an attorney-client relationship. Online readers should not act upon any information in this website without seeking professional counsel. The information contained in this website is provided only as general information, which may or may not reflect the most current legal developments. This information is not provided in the course of an attorney-client relationship and is not intended to constitute legal advice or to substitute for obtaining legal advice from an attorney licensed in your state.

Disclosure Regarding Attorney Advertising (Re Website & Blog): This website is not intended to be advertising. Some jurisdictions may consider the Site to be a form of advertising for legal services and as such may require specific disclosures. In such case, please read the following carefully: 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. Anyone considering a lawyer should independently investigate the lawyer’s credentials and ability, and not rely upon advertisements or self-proclaimed expertise. Hiring a lawyer is an important process that should not be based solely upon advertisements.No representation is made that the quality of the legal services to be performed by us is greater than the quality of legal services performed by other lawyers. Memberships and offices in legal fraternities and legal societies, technical and professional licenses, and memberships in scientific, technical and professional associations and societies of law or fields of practice do not mean that a lawyer is a specialist, expert, authority or is certified in a particular field of law, nor do such memberships or licenses mean that such a lawyer is more expert or competent than any other lawyer. A description or indication of limitation of practice does not mean that any agency or board has certified such lawyer as a specialist, expert or authority in an indicated field of law practice, nor does it mean that such lawyer is more expert or competent than any other lawyer. We urge all potential clients to make their own independent investigation and evaluation of any lawyer being considered. No attorney can guarantee the success of a case and past successes even in very similar lawsuits do not mean that success in a subsequent case is guaranteed or even likely. Past success cannot be an assurance of future success because each case must be decided on its own merits. Results depend upon a variety of factors unique to each case. The material on our Site is not intended to, and does not, include any advertisements for legal services that contain dramatizations, testimonials or endorsements. The images and pictures on our Site are not meant to represent or depict actual persons or events, but rather are merely provided for illustrative purposes only.

Testimonials: We post testimonials for informational purposes only; we do not claim that anyone will experience the same or similar results as mentioned in these writings. Nor do we claim that a significant number of consumers may obtain similar results. Another way to state this is that results experienced by any one individual who has written a testimonial or endorsement, is not necessarily what any given consumer should expect to experience. Consumers generally may not be expected to achieve the same or similar results as others who have used our services and who have subsequently written testimonials and endorsements.

No Warranties: We do not provide any express warranties or representations.

If you are dissatisfied or harmed by anything relating to this site, you may leave this site and this will be your sole and exclusive remedy. Any review or other matter that could be regarded as a testimonial or endorsement does not constitute a guarantee, warranty, or prediction regarding the outcome of an individual’s legal matter. Any initial consultation either by phone or email exploring the possibility of legal representation and/or preliminarily reviewing possible issues is exploratory only; it does not offer legal advice or opinion and should not be relied upon as such; no attorney-client relationship exists unless and until both parties agree on and mutually sign a binding legal services agreement specifying terms of the engagement.

Limitation of Liability: YOU EXPRESSLY UNDERSTAND AND AGREE THAT WE SHALL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY, INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL OR EXEMPLARY DAMAGES, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO, DAMAGES FOR LOSS OF REVENUES, PROFITS, GOODWILL, USE, DATA, FAILURE TO REALIZE EXPECTED SAVINGS, OR OTHER INTANGIBLE LOSSES (EVEN IF WE HAVE BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES), RESULTING FROM: (i) THE USE OR THE INABILITY TO USE THE SITE; (ii) THE COST OF PROCUREMENT OF SUBSTITUTE GOODS AND SERVICES RESULTING FROM ANY GOODS, DATA, INFORMATION OR SERVICES PURCHASED OR OBTAINED OR MESSAGES RECEIVED OR TRANSACTIONS ENTERED INTO THROUGH OR FROM THE SITE; (iii) INVALID DESTINATIONS, TRANSMISSION ERRORS, OR UNAUTHORIZED ACCESS TO OR ALTERATION OF YOUR TRANSMISSIONS OR DATA; (iv) STATEMENTS OR CONDUCT OF ANY THIRD PARTY ON THE SITE; (v) YOUR FAILURE TO RECEIVE ANY THIRD PARTY SERVICES OR PRODUCTS REQUESTED THROUGH THE SITE OR (vi) ANY OTHER MATTER RELATING TO THE SITE.

Internet Security

The lawyer or firm strives to protect your personal information; however, we urge you to take every precaution to protect your personal data when you are on the Internet. Change your passwords often, use a combination of letters.

We employ reasonable security measures consistent with standard industry practice to protect your Personal Information. We strive to store Personal Information collected by or through the Website in a reasonably secure environment. We strive to provide adequate security measures in our physical facilities to protect against the loss and misuse of the information we collect on the Website. Below are some of the physical, electronic, and procedural safeguards that the Company uses to protect your privacy.

Confidentiality: We restrict access to Personal Information collected about you on the Website to select employees, licensees, consultants or others who need to know that information to provide services to you or in the course of conducting our normal business operations. We also advise them about their responsibility to protect Customer data and we provide them with appropriate guidelines for adhering to our company’s business ethics standards and confidentiality policies. If you are a former customer, we protect your information in the same manner that we treat information about our current customers.

Disclaimer: Despite our efforts to protect your Personal Information, there is always some risk that an unauthorized third party may find a way around our security systems or that transmissions of your information over the Internet may be intercepted. Therefore, we make no representations or warranties with regard to the sufficiency of the above mentioned security measures. No data transmission over the Internet or through mobile devices can be guaranteed to be 100% secure. While we strive to protect your personal information from unauthorized access, use or disclosure, we cannot ensure or warrant the security of any information you transmit to us on the Website. Therefore, the Company is not responsible for any actual or consequential damages that result from a lapse in compliance with this Privacy Policy as a result of a security breach or technical malfunction.

We store and back up files through an online service. We hope the service’s security systems and the Company’s own reasonable efforts are sufficient to secure the privacy of your files, but we do not control all these systems and it is not feasible to audit the online service. E-mails are generally sent in unencrypted form over the public Internet. This means that various people and entities might be able to access the content or intercept e-mail. This could compromise the confidentiality of our communications and your privilege against disclosing them in court. Further, regular emails are not HIPAA compliant and we therefore instruct you to not send us any protected health information (PHI); if you do send PHI, then you agree to defend and indemnify us against liability for data breaches, or other HIPAA or privacy and security violations.

Please do not send us, via the contact form, any information regarding your personal health, or any other information you believe raises confidentiality concerns when sent or stored over the Internet.
