There’s not much to say about 2020 that hasn’t been said already, so we’ll cut the introspection short. Instead, we’d like to focus more on something much more concrete and measurable: the marketing strategies that have brought your small law firm success in the past year.
Navigating the ever-changing terrain of the pandemic has proved challenging across every industry. In particular, attorneys have had to deal with court closings, case postponements, and fluctuating social distancing regulations–all while striving to stay engaged with their clients. Some of the business plans they’ve devised in response to COVID-19 have produced lukewarm results, while others have brought a surprising amount of success.
Let’s dive into a few of the latter.

It’s not very different for attorneys, either, who may find themselves losing clients thanks to an outdated website bio or an old photograph.
