In today’s digital world, having a presence on social media isn’t just optional for law firms-it's essential. Whether you’re trying to get clients to trust you with their life-altering cases or boost your local visibility, using a mix of paid advertising and social media marketing is the winning strategy. Let’s break it down-plaintiff style-into paid ads and organic social media tactics.
Paid Ads: Your Legal Brief for Success
Google Ads: The Search Engine Verdict
Why Google Ads? When clients are actively searching for a lawyer, Google Ads is the search bar that delivers results. Whether someone is typing "best criminal defense attorney" or "personal injury lawyers near me," your firm can show up at the exact moment they need help. Talk about being in the right place at the right time!
Strategy: Bid on high-converting keywords specific to your practice areas, target local searches, and drive traffic to your website or landing page. With Google’s remarketing capabilities, you can even follow your prospects and remind them why you’re the best at what you do.
AMS Digital Advantage: AMS Digital will manage keyword research, write compelling ad copy, and monitor performance for the best ROI. With our expert ad management, your law firm’s ads will keep objectionable click-through rates at bay and ensure you're appearing at the top when potential clients search.
Facebook and Meta Ads: The Law Firm’s Public Relations Tool
Why Meta? Facebook and Instagram offer a gavel of options for targeting potential clients, whether they're scrolling through newsfeeds or looking for services. This is where you can build awareness, trust, and even generate leads without the high-pressure of courtroom arguments. You can target people by location, interests, behaviors, and much more.
Strategy: Promote posts about your services, legal tips, and client testimonials to build a community of loyal followers. Facebook Lead Ads allow you to gather client information directly, without even having to leave the platform. Instagram, on the other hand, allows you to share engaging stories or ads that humanize your firm, all while giving clients easy access to contact you.
AMS Digital Advantage: AMS Digital crafts hyper-targeted campaigns that help your firm stand out with engaging visuals, compelling copy, and strategic budget management. From lead generation to brand awareness, we’ll make sure your ad dollars are being spent wisely.
LinkedIn Ads: Professional Networking for Law Firms
Why LinkedIn? For law firms that serve businesses or professionals, LinkedIn is the courtroom where you build your reputation. Whether it’s corporate law, intellectual property, or estate planning, LinkedIn’s audience is perfect for targeting B2B clients or high-net-worth individuals seeking legal counsel.
Strategy: Sponsored Content is a great way to position yourself as a thought leader in your legal field. Publish articles about relevant legal topics or share insights from case studies to demonstrate expertise. With InMail, you can also directly engage with prospects and decision-makers.
AMS Digital Advantage: AMS Digital’s team of experts helps create LinkedIn ad campaigns that highlight your firm’s professionalism and establish your authority in niche legal areas. We’ll build strategies that expand your reach and connect you to the right people, quickly.
Social Media Marketing (SMM): Courtroom Drama-Without the Drama
Paid ads are important, but organic social media marketing helps you build your brand on the daily. Here’s how you can use Facebook, Instagram, TikTok, and X (formerly Twitter) to your firm’s advantage.
Facebook: The Community Engagement Chamber
Why Facebook? Facebook isn’t just a platform for your grandma’s status updates. It’s the perfect place for law firms to build a loyal community. You can share blog posts, testimonials, and updates on important legal changes in your area of expertise. And don’t forget to engage directly with comments and messages-clients want to feel heard.
Strategy: Post regularly and vary your content: from legal tips and client stories to industry news and personal firm updates. Join local groups and participate in conversations. Facebook’s event features can also be great for hosting free workshops or webinars.
AMS Digital Advantage: AMS Digital ensures your posts are not only timely but also engaging and optimized for organic reach. We create content that aligns with your firm’s voice and values, maintaining a positive, interactive relationship with your followers.
Instagram: Visualizing Your Legal Expertise
Why Instagram? Instagram’s visual-first approach means it’s perfect for showcasing the human side of your law firm-whether it’s photos of your office or videos of your team celebrating a victory. People connect with stories, and Instagram is the best place to tell yours.
Strategy: Use Instagram Stories to engage with your audience through polls or quick legal tips, and Instagram Reels to provide fun legal facts or bust myths about the law. Highlight your firm's culture and expertise through posts showcasing client success stories and firm achievements.
AMS Digital Advantage: AMS Digital will create visually appealing and informative posts that help your firm build a solid Instagram presence. We’ll use creative strategies to share your team’s victories and legal advice in ways that resonate with your audience.
TikTok: Legal Advice with a Side of Humor
Why TikTok? TikTok is a fantastic platform for engaging younger clients with creative and informative short videos. You can use humor, trending sounds, and quick tips to grab attention, while still providing valuable legal information.
Strategy: Post quick “Did you know?” legal tips or myth-busting facts about different areas of law. You could also share funny stories from your firm or react to trending topics with your professional legal perspective-sassy is definitely an option here.
AMS Digital Advantage: AMS Digital will help your law firm break into TikTok with engaging content that aligns with your practice areas. We’ll strategize with viral trends while maintaining professionalism, ensuring you connect with younger audiences who will remember your firm when they need legal help.
X (Twitter): Stay Top of Mind with Real-Time Legal Insights
Why X (formerly Twitter)? X is all about staying current and relevant in the conversation. With its character limit, it’s great for posting quick legal updates, commenting on trending topics, or providing sound bites of legal wisdom that encourage engagement.
Strategy: Use hashtags and join legal discussions on trending topics. Post bite-sized legal tips, firm news, and even respond to clients’ inquiries quickly. X is the place to build your firm’s thought leadership through frequent and timely posts.
AMS Digital Advantage: AMS Digital can help your firm manage your X account, ensuring that your posts align with real-time events, hashtags, and legal trends. We’ll position your firm as a go-to authority in your legal field.
