Why your firm's site isn't bringing in the right clients.
You're not a personal-injury mill chasing volume. You want a steady stream of good matters — estate, family, business — from people who searched, found you, and trusted what they saw. An audit shows you why that isn't happening yet.
"We rank for our name, and almost nothing else."
A potential client searching "estate planning attorney near me" never sees you, even though you've practiced for twenty years. Meanwhile a newer firm with a thinner reputation sits at the top. That gap is almost always fixable — once you know what's causing it.
The things that decide whether a client finds you.
Local & map-pack presence
Whether you show up when someone searches your practice area plus your city — the search that actually produces calls — and what's keeping you out of the map pack.
Practice-area pages
Whether each practice area has a real, well-structured page. One thin "Services" page is why firms lose to competitors with a dedicated page per matter type.
Trust & authority signals
The credentials, results, and content that tell both Google and a nervous client that you're the established choice — handled within bar-advertising rules, never against them.
AI search visibility
Whether ChatGPT and Perplexity name your firm when someone asks them to recommend an attorney like you. Most firms have never checked. We do.
The shortlist is being written without you.
A client choosing an estate or family attorney is making a trust decision — usually quietly, usually online first. More of them now open ChatGPT instead of Google: "questions to ask an estate attorney," "who handles business succession in Charleston." The engine names a firm or two. If you're not named, you're cut before the consult, and nothing tells you it happened.
Referrals built your practice and still matter. But there's a second engine now, and it's deciding who it trusts this year. The firms it learns to name become the ones it keeps naming.
Two reports. No retainer. No conflict with your bar rules.
A plain-English diagnostic for you, and a technical work order for whoever maintains your site. We diagnose; your webmaster fixes. We make no guarantees about outcomes and keep every recommendation inside professional-conduct rules.

Why isn't my law firm website ranking?
Usually a mix of weak local signals, a single thin services page instead of real practice-area pages, and missing trust signals. The audit pinpoints which apply to your firm and ranks them by impact.
Do you work with personal injury or DUI firms?
It's not our focus. We work best with boutique firms in estate, family, and business law — practices that compete on reputation and the quality of the matter, not ad volume.
Will your recommendations follow bar advertising rules?
Yes. Every recommendation stays inside professional-conduct and advertising rules. We never suggest guarantees of results or anything that would put your license at risk.
Do you implement the changes?
No. We're audit only. You get a clear work order your existing developer can act on, and we're available if they have questions. No ongoing fee.
