FindLaw Customer Since: March 9th, 2005

“When my colleagues and I initially considered doing online marketing with FindLaw, we were a bit apprehensive. Knowing that it was a big investment and that it would take time to see a return, we really needed to trust the product and take a leap of faith. To be honest, one of my partners was very much opposed to the idea. Today, he will tell you how wrong he was and how glad he is to be a FindLaw customer.

Working with FindLaw has been a wonderful experience every step of the way. My consultant, Susan Richards, works with us to address the needs of my firm and only suggests products that are a good fit. I know that she is never going to sell us something we don’t need.

Focusing more on online marketing and less on traditional print advertising has been successful for us and offers the most exposure for my firm. In the past six months, we’ve represented colleges and universities from across the nation in front of the United States Department of Education and did a significant amount of securities and filings for a publicly traded company. Both of these cases resulted from inquires generated from my Web site.

Since launching our FindLaw Web site, my firm has received nothing but rave reviews from clients and other professionals. I often receive phone calls from competing online marketing consultants who claim they can build Web sites better than FindLaw. To be honest, I’ve explored a few of those claims, but only to find that FindLaw is by far the best. “

“The leads generated from my Web site are better than other forms of marketing we have tried in the past. Since launching the site, my firm has been getting inquiries from clients who are educated, serious about retaining us, and who have already researched different attorneys on the Web. This is helpful because they already know the kind of cases my firm handles when they finally contact me, enabling them to set appropriate expectations.

In the past six months, my firm picked up four big cases that I can directly link back to my Web site. We’ve represented clients involved with aggravated unlawful use of weapons, felony theft, felony aggravated criminal sexual abuse, and a Department of Children and Family Services investigation.

Not only have I received a positive response from my clients in regards to my Web site, but also from other attorneys. Many tell me that my Web site is very professional and one of the best they’ve seen.

Working with my FindLaw consultant, Susan Richards, has been a wonderful experience. She’s always honest, on-the-ball, and has helped our business to increase revenue. When we first started working with her, we thought of her as a sales rep who was just trying to sell something. Now, we see her more as a consultant who is genuinely dedicated to helping our business prosper. She only suggests packages that are a good fit for my firm. Since becoming a FindLaw customer four years ago, we’ve upgraded several times, more than doubling our investment, and we’ve seen the number of leads increase dramatically as a result. Building a relationship with our FindLaw consultant was a smart move for our practice.”
