# How GJEL Reviews and Updates These Guides

Canonical: https://sanjosecacaraccidentlawyer.com/editorial-policy/

Reviewed by Andrew Ronald Gillin; reviewed 2026-11-05.

We explain California law in short, named sections and link readers to the sources behind the explanation.

## How we research California injury law

Research starts with statutes, court opinions, court instructions, and official agency pages. Those sources have different roles. We distinguish a general rule from a made-up example, an agency instruction, and a case with its own facts and limits.





## How attorney approval and corrections are recorded

New legal content remains a draft until its actual review is recorded. Changed explanations need a fresh review of what changed. Source retrieval dates and attorney review dates are separate. To raise a correction, contact GJEL and identify the page and the point you want checked.
