Should You Display The Price Of Your Legal Services On Your Law Firm Website?

This is a common question and one that can cause much confusion. Should you display the prices of your legal services on your website, or should you deliberately avoid doing this and only discuss the prices for your services once you speak on the telephone?

Would you like the answer immediately, or to be made to wait for it? Well seeing as you spoke so nicely to your computer screen then, here is is:

Do not display your legal services prices on your website!

Why? Displaying your prices simply allows your prospects to use your prices as a benchmark before moving on to call another law firm to find out their prices.

A major supplier of UK Legal conveyancing services discovered that when they put an instant price calculator on their website the enquiries literally dried up overnight. Needless to say they removed it, and instantly the telephone started ringing again!

Whilst it might have been a nice gadget, it failed to bring in the new clients and you must remember that the only purpose of your website is to find you leads and get those leads to the point that they are ready to engage with you.

If your prices are displayed and easy to find on your website, unless you are the cheapest firm in the UK (and that is not a strategy I advise you to follow when new national competitors are entering all of the time) you will lose potential clients.

There needs to be plenty of information on your website about each area of law that you are looking to attract work for, enough so that you prove your expertise and convince a visitor that you are the best firm to handle their transaction, but you do not want to give them everything.

The last part of receiving an instruction from a potential client must come from one on one interaction with them, either face to face or over the telephone. Present all of your prices on your website and you will be a very useful tool for your prospects in gauging other solicitors’ prices, but you will receive no instructions for your own law firm!

Nick is a fountain of knowledge, tried and tested personally. He has that rare gift of not making you feel daft for asking any question. After our consultation I felt far less like a rabbit in the headlights and far more empowered to climb the marketing mountain successfully.

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

Chris Rennie

Nick takes a no-nonsense approach, cuts the fluff and gets straight to the point – which is an approach that you see very little nowadays in the world of marketing where you have many gurus with complex approach that most probably never work. I look forward to working with Nick.
