If you’re a lawyer trying to grow your firm, you know the struggle:
You need marketing. But hiring the wrong agency feels like setting your money on fire.
Over the past year, I tested five different law firm marketing agencies.
Some delivered magic.
Some delivered migraines.
Here’s the real tea:
1. Comrade Digital Marketing Agency — My Best Decision
I’ll be blunt: Comrade made me believe in marketing again.
From Day 1, they built a website that actually felt like me — not some boring stock photo factory.
Their SEO team started ranking my firm within a few months.
But the best part? They got me qualified leads.
Not just random “traffic,” but real people who needed a lawyer.
Highlights:
• Full marketing strategy, tailored to my firm type
• Clear communication (no weird “trust us” vibes)
• Real results: My intake doubled in 6 months
If I had started with comradeweb.com, I would have saved a lot of headaches.
2. Scorpion — Good, But Pricey
Scorpion has a strong reputation, and they deserve it — mostly.
Their design work was excellent. Their PPC ads started bringing some new cases.
But man, they are expensive.
If you’re a big firm with deep pockets, they’re a serious player.
If you’re growing and counting every dollar, maybe not your first stop.
3. Nifty Marketing — Great for Local Domination
Nifty helped me climb the local SEO rankings fast.
If you want your firm to show up when people Google “lawyer near me,” Nifty is a killer choice.
They’re smaller than some agencies, but honestly, that meant better service and faster tweaks when needed.
4. Justia — Solid But Not Sexy
I tried Justia’s marketing services because they were affordable and trusted in the industry.
The results? Steady but not explosive.
Good if you need a basic web presence and want something reliable without drama.
Don’t expect viral growth — but do expect professionalism.
5. LawLytics — Good for DIY Lawyers
LawLytics gave me access to marketing tools and coaching sessions.
If you’re tech-savvy and like controlling your own website/marketing, this could save you a lot of money.
For me, though? I needed to be in court, not fiddling with SEO settings.
Still, mad respect for their model.
