Decision support, not legal advice

ReleaseRight applies Florida and federal law to the answers you provide and shows its reasoning and citations. It is not legal advice, and using it doesn’t create an attorney-client relationship with anyone. Its determinations are only as accurate as the answers entered, and they can’t account for facts the questions don’t ask about.

Some questions are unsettled

Parts of this area of law are genuinely unresolved, including whether parents may access sessions a minor consented to alone and whether Florida’s parental records right reaches separately kept psychotherapy notes. Where the law is unsettled, ReleaseRight sends the request to legal review rather than guessing. Courts and agencies may interpret the law differently than ReleaseRight does.

The law changes

Every saved determination records the rule set version it used. Statutes, regulations, and court decisions change, and there can be a delay between a change and an updated rule set. The current rule set and its date are shown in the app.

Your professional responsibility

You remain responsible for every decision to release or withhold records. ReleaseRight doesn’t replace your clinical judgment, your duty to report suspected abuse or neglect, your licensing board’s rules, or your practice’s policies. Confirm contested or unusual requests with a Florida health care attorney before acting.

Letters

Generated letters are drafts. Review each one, fill in the bracketed fields, and confirm it reflects your decision before you send it.
