Marketing Ideas For Solicitors

If you are a firm of solicitors looking for marketing ideas to bring you in as many new client instructions as you want or need, I assure you that you have just arrived in the right place.

I have been providing solicitors with marketing ideas since I established my marketing consultancy for solicitors in 2003, this after a 14 year legal career. I practiced in a High Street law firm for the first eight years of my legal career whilst also undertaking my Legal Executive qualifications. From year two in private practice I decided to specialise in personal injury claims. However, because the firm I worked for did not have enough work of this type to keep me busy, they asked me to come up with my own marketing ideas to generate my case load. I jumped at the chance, always having been a fan of marketing, and within a few months I had generated my own personal injury case load. My marketing ideas proved so successful that I then recruited a trainee legal executive to work under me and I provided her with her caseload too from my own marketing ideas and initiatives.

Next, I was asked to take over the marketing for the entire firm, covering the broad spectrum of legal services, from family law to moving home, commercial leases to partnership disputes. I quickly realised that not only did I seem to have the knack for marketing, I was enjoying it far more than the legal work I was undertaking. However, I was only in year three of an eight year period of qualifying as a solicitor.

From time to time I would ask a marketing consultant to come and visit me to see if they could provide me with any new marketing ideas. Sadly, this rarely provided me with any new ideas but it did convince me that I must set up my own marketing consultancy for solicitors in the future as these consultants added nothing to the process (but did produce a hefty dent in the firm’s cheque book).

The firm and my department went from strength to strength on the back of my marketing ideas. When I qualified as a solicitor in 1999 we decided to move west to Bristol from Reading as we had a young family and wanted to be closer to grandparents. After two and a half years with a much larger firm (not for me in terms of client service offering but an excellent exercise in increasing my profile within the legal profession – giving nationwide talks and writing a book about Claims Against Uninsured Drivers (still available on Amazon)), then one year with a niche practice in a business development role, I established my marketing consultancy.

How does all of this information help you? Well, I have now condensed all of my marketing ideas into one powerful 17 page guide which shows you exactly how to market your solicitors practice.

Tim Bishop

As the owner of a small to medium-sized law firm, I have found that Samson Consulting’s Marketing4Solicitors monthly newsletter has proved absolutely invaluable throughout the last three years or so. Of all the marketing advice I’ve had over the years, this has proved by far the best value – bringing us tens of thousand of pounds of extra work every year.

One of the best tricks Nick Jervis [who owns Samson Consulting] uses, is not only to identify the kind of marketing actions a small or medium-sized business can take themselves, but he also explains why it works and most importantly then takes you through, step-by-step exactly what you need to do. As someone who is passionate about growing my business, I really look forward to receiving Nick’s excellent newsletter every month.

It’s worth pointing out that initially I was sceptical about his promises – so many marketing businesses promise the earth. But within a couple of months I was absolutely convinced he was right and I have been hooked ever since.

I recommend Nick Jervis and Samson Consulting without any hesitation whatsoever.

Iain MacDonald

Excellent consultation very practical and straight forward planning, positively and optimistically reimagining a small law firms prospects.

Vinay Tanna

As a medium sized Law Firm we have been dealing with Nick for a good few years now – his assistance and support delivered in a friendly but professional way has been invaluable; added to this, coming from a legal background he has a firm understanding of what solicitors require.

At our initial meeting with Nick he advised on various marketing strategies including simple changes to our website that would enhance traffic to the site.

We are now working on a new marketing project and know, as always, we are in safe hands.

Michael Birch

Less than a year ago I asked Nick to help me grow our practice by making the telephone ring.

He’s certainly done that and much more.

The improvements are incredible and Nick has guided me through the many challenges of scaling up, not least the need for a client focused approach.

This has allowed me to start the next phase; organising the practice to ensure a better lifestyle balance for all of us, whilst we continue to grow.

Carl Atkinson

I have enjoyed working with Nick over the past couple of years and his advice has helped me manage and improve the marketing of my business.

Nick has provided many helpful and practical suggestions to improve my marketing strategy and I am happy to recommend his services.
