Law Firm Marketing Blog
Here you will find all of my thoughts on marketing a legal services business in my legal marketing blog.
Until 2003 I was a practising solicitor, but since then I have been a full time marketing consultant to legal services businesses, showing them how to win new clients consistently and as easily as possible.
Managing a large annual spend each year promoting legal services both online and offline, allows me to see what really does and does not work when it comes to growing a legal services business.
My book, The Law Firm Growth Formula: How smart solicitors attract more of the right clients at the right price to grow their law firms quickly, condenses all of my knowledge and processes into one easy to read and practical book.

Why Write A Law Firm Marketing Blog?
When a solicitor is looking for a legal marketing consultant to help them grow their law firm, how do they know who is the best one for their needs?
With so many so called ‘legal marketing specialists’ starting up every month, how do they know who actually knows what it takes to grow a law firm?
Well, one thing you can do is to find their legal marketing blog, have a good look around, see if there are more than a handful of blogs, covering a broad range of law firm marketing topics, not just the one marketing tactic that they know something about, and have a good read.
You might also want to see if they have written an Amazon Best Selling Book, with over 70 reviews, which might also suggest that they take their role seriously.
I certainly do.
I work in partnership with my law firm owner clients to help them grow their law firms.
Many of my clients work with me for years, not weeks or months, solely because I continue to help them navigate the growth of their law firm, helping them not only with their marketing, but also recruitment, staff retention, operations and processes; whatever is required to make their lives easier and their law firm growth to happen more expediently.
I hope that you find this legal marketing blog to be helpful.
I hope that it gives you the confidence to discover more about how I can help you to grow your law firm.
