Branding Your Legal Practice

Solicitors Logos

Why? Why is a brand important? Why do you need one? What will it achieve?

Your brand tells the world about you. It says whether you are a modern forward thinking practice,
or a more traditional law firm. It says whether your main message is that you provide a caring
service for your clients, or that you concentrate on getting the job done as quickly as possible to save
your clients from any stress. But most of all, it must tell the truth. Much like having a website that
screams “dynamic forward thinking firm” when you are a high street practice with traditional roots, if
the brand and your service don’t match up, it will lose you clients.

You may find this hard to believe, but before your clients even see you, the logo on your outside signage or on the letter confirming the appointment, tells your new clients what they can expect when they come to see you. It is that important. And if it does not match or just simply does not work, it will effect how the client feels in dealing with your firm.

Your legal logo is a powerful marketing tool

Every time your logo appears it communicates your service and differentiates your from your competitors legal services. Whether your logo only appears on your stationery, or in advertisements in the Yellow Pages or local rag, it builds client recognition and loyalty that in time will create a bottom line value all of its own. It becomes a brand. A brand is the visual identity of your legal practice. It speaks to your clients and tells them all about you. So spend some time on it, it is hugely important.

Quality

You should put the best graphic designers to work on your logo, but only after providing them with a detailed marketing brief so that they understand why your firm is different. Differentiation is vital when it comes to marketing law firms. Your brand is the starting point.

Law Firm Marketing

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.

Chris Thomas

As usual with Nick he was super informative and helpful and gave me some very good tips for me to go forward with. He exudes positivity and makes dealing with him a pleasure. Also gave me a steer in helping two other contacts I have who may be able to use his services

Anthony McCarthy

Nick gives simple and clear advice which makes sense.

In a field full of smoke and mirror merchants he is the real deal.

His book, content and webinars are first class.

Highly recommended.

Tim Weir

Having implemented a raft of improvements to our website and marketing campaigns suggested in Nick’s excellent books, I decided to contact the man himself for a one-to-one discussion.

The thirty minutes spent with Nick on that video call provided me with more business improvement tools than I could’ve hoped for. Nick even took the time to give me some insights on client conversion particular to our area of practice.

Online reviews are often brimming with trite phrases and hyperbole, but I cannot find any other way of saying that my only regret is that I didn’t contact Samson Consulting sooner.

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.
