The problem
Tired of SEO agencies that don't understand Los Angeles?
Rankings, but no calls
Many agencies chase national blog traffic. Lawyers in Los Angeles need people close by searching "personal injury lawyer", not readers from the other end of the country.
Losing "near me" searches
Legal search is crowded with national firms and lead-gen directories with very large budgets.
Messy listings and schema
Different addresses or phone numbers on Google, Avvo and old directories confuse Google and push your law firm down the map in Echo Park.
Rising cost per lead
State bar advertising rules shape how you can present results, reviews and specializations. Paying per click for every Los Angeles lead gets expensive fast.
How we work
How we do local SEO for lawyers.
Google Business Profile optimization
Google ranks map results on relevance, distance and prominence. We fix your law firm's profile so it is eligible to rank across Los Angeles.
- Primary category set to “Law firm”, with tested secondary categories
- Name, address and phone made identical everywhere
- Duplicate or unclaimed listings found and merged
- Services, photos and weekly posts aimed at Santa Monica and Silver Lake
- LocalBusiness schema with exact coordinates on your site
If Google sees conflicting details, it drops the listing from the 3-pack rather than risk showing wrong information.
