Marketing for Attorneys and Law Firms presents timely topics which are well-researched and written by a fine array of authors from around the country. As attorneys are becoming more interested in marketing and how it can benefit their practices, this book is an important tool. It aids attorneys as they evaluate and improve old marketing strategies and create new marketing strategies where such advertising was neglected. It is an ideal readings text for today’s attorney and legal consultants who wish to obtain a better insight into select aspects of marketing the law firm.This is the only readings book that focuses on these areas: applications of marketing planning, attorney selection by consumers, and client and provider attitudes toward legal services. Part Two thoroughly examines various aspects of how clients select and evaluate the performance of legal services. Today’s attorneys must first fully understand what their clients perceive about their services before jumping into marketing their services. This section provides insight that most attorneys would normally not investigate and lays the groundwork for the development of marketing programs. Part Three addresses the wide use of legal advertising, and again provides insight into what clients and attorneys think and perceive about various forms of advertising the law firm. This provides a base from which attorneys who are planning to advertise may be able to prevent failure and promote a greater level of success for the advertising program.Applied mainly to private legal practices and clinics, some of the specific topics covered in the three sections include consumers’perceptions of attorneys and legal advertising; attorneys’perceptions of marketing and advertising; perceived risk in selecting an attorney and how consumers actually select attorneys; customer/client service attributes for attorneys; measuring the effectiveness of legal advertising; market planning and strategies for today’s legal practice; promoting the legal practice; and developing referral and networking systems in legal practice.For attorneys in private practice, law firm libraries and administrators, law professors who specialize in practice development, consultants who concentrate in legal practice marketing, law school libraries, and marketing professors and consultants who teach or consult in the professional service sectors should read this invaluable reference book.

Did law school teach you ANYTHING about how to successfully market your law practice? You wouldn't have been compelled to read this book if it did, now would you? Contrary to what the public thinks, you and I know being an attorney can at times be a thankless, life-sucking, time consuming, family destroying profession that earns you little more than middle class wages. It's NOT the best attorneys that make the most money. Many times some of the hardest working and knowledgeable attorneys are the very ones scraping to get by, working 80 hour weeks, and giving up family time and any hope of a life outside the office. From interviewing 150+ attorneys, and seeing the inside of 400+ attorney websites, I can tell you these shocking facts: 1. 97% of attorneys tell me they've been burned, more than once, by an unscrupulous marketing company who sees them as their next ATM withdrawal. 2. The top 3 ways attorneys get burned by marketers are: A) the marketing company controls either the hosting or domain name of their website, and "rents" this to the attorney, pulling the rug out at contract's end, or extorts the attorney for thousands to own their own website; B) Proprietary reporting systems are used to create smoke and mirrors, hiding lack of results; C) Little to no marketing work is actually performed, but instead claimed to have been performed. 3. 95% of attorneys get 0 - 5 visitors to their website a day. (how will you EVER get enough potential clients to call you without enough visitors?) 4. It's possible, with proper marketing, to get your phone ringing with real, live, breathing potential clients on a DAILY BASIS, earning you 4-8 or more retained clients a month from a properly SEO'd website that draws 100+ unique visitors daily. 5. Over 90% of attorneys sacrifice tens of thousands of dollars a year in lost retentions due to untrained, unfriendly, standoffish office staff, attorney partners, lack of customer intake scripting, and utter lack of potential client follow up. 6. In your city, on your block, there are attorneys charging triple what you charge, making $300k - $500k+ a year, meanwhile other lawyers are whoring themselves out for nickels, and going broke. Yes, in THIS ECONOMY. Richard Jacobs' book, Secrets of Attorney Marketing Law School Dares Not Teach, gives you street fighter strategies and tactics you can use TODAY to earn more, work less, and get off the treadmill of mediocrity. At times irreverant, crude, rude, and unprofessional, Richard exposes the truth about what marketing works, and what doesn't. If you're easily offended, stuck on professionalism, "getting your name out there," and feel naked if you have to take a picture without the security of your law books behind you, then do not read this book.
