Why legal SEO needs a specialist approach
Legal search terms are some of the most valuable on the internet. One signed personal injury case can be worth tens of thousands of dollars, and Google Ads clicks for terms like “car accident lawyer” in large cities often cost well over $100. Firms that rank organically get those leads without paying per click, so they expect a lot from their SEO agency.
Legal SEO also comes with constraints: bar advertising rules, YMYL (“your money or your life”) quality expectations from Google, and intense local competition.
What we deliver for your law firm clients
Practice area architecture
Every practice area and sub-practice gets a dedicated, in-depth page, for example “truck accident lawyer” or “child custody attorney”. Pages are structured around how clients actually search and interlinked to build topical authority.
Local SEO for every office
Google Business Profile optimization for each office location, legal directory citations on Avvo, Justia, FindLaw, Martindale, Super Lawyers and the state bar, and location pages for the cities each office serves. See our local SEO service.
Expert legal content
Content that demonstrates experience and expertise (E-E-A-T): attorney bios, practice guides, “what to do after…” articles and FAQs that answer real client questions. All of it is written carefully for compliance and approved by the firm. Learn about our content writing.
Authority link building
Links from legal publications, local news, bar associations, community sponsorships and legal resource pages, earned through manual outreach.
Lead tracking
Call tracking and form tracking so you can show firms how many potential cases came from organic search, not just traffic.
Sell legal SEO with confidence
You don’t need to be a legal SEO expert to sell it. Start with a free branded audit of a firm’s website. Our audit shows the firm exactly where they stand against competing firms in their city, which is usually all it takes to start a serious conversation.
Most law firm clients fit our Growth or Scale plans. Firms with multiple offices or competitive personal injury practices typically need Scale.
