Criminal Defense

Criminal Defense Lawyer Marketing

Criminal Defense attorneys that own a solo or small law firm face growth challenges every day. Having the stress of wondering where your next case is coming from is not ideal and it can be difficult determining who you can trust with your firm’s success. Now more than ever, it is important to have a marketing partner that is results driven and focuses on helping you generate cases and revenue for your firm. 

‍

If you are in need of a marketing partner that you can trust with your firm’s growth, then it is imperative that you contact us to set up a consultation. At Lab Coat Marketing, we sit down with our clients in the criminal defense field with the goal of understanding their business inside and out. By understanding their business and by understanding what the future goals are, we develop a comprehensive marketing plan that targets the specific case types our clients want for their firm.

Identify The Cases You ACTUALLY Want

The first step a criminal defense attorney needs to take in developing their marketing plan is to truly understand what types of cases they want to take on. Do you want to take on only Misdemeanors? Or do you want to focus on Felonies and high profile cases? Really understanding the direction you want to take your law firm will be important in every marketing decision you make moving forward. In our experience, we see criminal defense attorneys break into these categories:

‍

  • Misdemeanors: This category would cover criminal defense attorneys that focus on standard DUI’s / DWI’s and lower level misdemeanors. Marketing for this category is competitive, but there are a lot of opportunities to grow a small firm.

‍

  • Misdemeanors + Some Felonies: Typically, an attorney in this category would have had success only handling misdemeanors and then decided they wanted to test the waters in felonies. The attorney’s brand is still heavily focused on misdemeanors, but there may be some targeted ad campaigns to test the waters in taking on felony cases.

‍

  • Felonies: An attorney that falls into this category almost always takes all forms of DUIs and DWIs. They will then also move onto high end felony cases which can be more competitive than misdemeanors, but can also bring in a higher dollar amount per case that is generated.

‍

  • Felonies + High Profile Cases: This category would be an attorney that takes on all cases in the previous felonies category, but then will also take on cases that come with a lot of press attention. This category is the most competitive area to compete in because there are fewer of these cases and each attorney that wants these types of cases are willing to spend a lot on advertising.

Website Translator & Google Indexing

Making sure that your website is translated in the user's language is important in the criminal defense field. As an example, if you are a Spanish speaking criminal defense attorney and you want to target Spanish speakers, then you will want to make sure that you have your site translated into Spanish for people that are searching in that language. 

‍

Having your website translated is not the only step you should take. At Lab Coat Marketing, our marketing strategists ensure that the entire translated website is indexed by Google in that language specifically. This ensures that our clients website will show up for users that are searching for a criminal defense attorney in their native language.

Develop A Responsive & Conversion Optimized Website

Once you have determined the types of cases you want to take on, the next step will be to develop your brand and develop a conversion optimized website. This means that your website will be designed in a way that takes the user through a series of steps that will end in them contacting you for a consultation. Each step is carefully designed to deliver more reasons as to why the user should choose you as their attorney. Not having a website that is designed in this manner will automatically put you behind the competition in your market. 

‍

In this process, you will also need to develop content around the different case types you previously determined you wanted to take on. This should not be one page that lists these cases out, but each case type needs to have its own dedicated page with video and written content that speaks to the user that could be facing that particular charge. 

Setup Call Tracking & Website Analytics

Tracking is incredibly important when it comes to the marketing for your criminal defense firm. If you do not have the proper tracking in place, then you won’t be able to know what works and what doesn’t. This leads to criminal defense law firms wasting marketing dollars on strategies that are ineffective. There are two major forms of tracking that every criminal defense law firm should be using. Those main tracking mechanisms are:

‍

  • Call Tracking: Call tracking is a tool that allows you to track phone calls that come in from your different marketing channels. In tracking these phone calls, you’re able to determine how many calls come in from your marketing efforts, which calls were actual leads and which calls are hitting voicemail. Our team of marketing strategists use CallRail for our client’s call tracking. 

‍

  • Website Analytics: There are many forms of website tracking and analytics that you can use. One of the most popular tools is called Google Analytics. It is important to have this set up on your website so that you can analyze your website’s performance and determine what changes you need to make to generate more leads for your firm.

Sign Up For Effective Legal Listings & Advertising Platforms

A mistake that many criminal defense attorneys make when marketing their law firm is solely relying on their website for results. There are many different avenues that someone who is charged with a crime will take to find a criminal defense attorney. It is important to be listed on all the critical listings that have users' attention. Below are some of the major listings you should make sure your firm is listed on:

  • Google Maps
  • Justia
  • Avvo
  • SuperLawyers
  • FindLaw
  • Bing
  • Apple Maps
  • Yelp

There are many more listings that you should make sure your firm is on, but these are some of the major ones. At Lab Coat Marketing, our strategists get our clients listed on over 80 different listings across the web to make sure that they are generating business from many different avenues. 

Request Reviews Every Time!

Requesting reviews from your clients can be an uncomfortable task. Although it is uncomfortable, it is extremely important to the future success of your criminal defense firm. When someone is searching for a criminal defense or DUI attorney, they look through reviews left by other people. There are some creative ways to ask your clients to leave you a review. Some of those are:

‍

  • Texting a link to your Google My Business page asking for a review. The link that you need to send can be found on your Google My Business page when you login.

‍

  • Emailing a link to your Google My Business page asking for a review.

‍

  • Generating a QR code that directs your client to your Google My Business page to leave a review. You can then print out this QR code and place it in a convenient place in your office or in your meeting areas.
