10 Best Legal Marketing Companies in 2024

---

Are you looking to amp up your law firm’s digital marketing? Well, while you can always go the DIY route, it can be time-consuming. The most efficient and effective way (if you can afford to) is to hire an agency. Let’s look at the types of lawyer marketing agencies you can consider, and some of the best legal marketing agencies you can hire this year. But before we get into that, let’s answer a basic question.

In-House Legal Marketing Vs. Legal Marketing Agency

While some law firms can afford to hire a law firm marketing agency, others might not have the resources to do so. Here are a few factors to consider when deciding whether or not to hire an agency for lawyer marketing needs.

Level of Expertise: Marketing agencies are experts and hold legitimate credentials that prove their knowledge in marketing strategies that work.

Cost: Both in-house and outsourcing methods for implementing marketing campaigns involve a budget. Some agencies cost more than paying your own marketing team, while it may be the opposite with other agencies.

Control: Outsourcing your content marketing tasks to an agency somehow limits control, but there are ways to establish effective communication so you are still able to achieve your marketing vision.

Communication: Tasks might be accomplished quicker if communication happens within an in-house marketing team rather than an agency.

Scalability: Agencies have the resources and experience to scale marketing campaigns for bigger results.

Perspective: Nobody knows your firm better than your team. However, having an agency step in might offer a different perspective that can benefit your firm’s future marketing endeavors.

5 Types of Lawyer Marketing Agencies

Here are the five general types of agencies lawyers can use to promote their legal services:

1. Lead generation agency: Acquires high-quality leads for you while you take care of converting them into clients.
2. Digital marketing agency: Builds a well-coordinated strategy for promoting your law firm online.
3. SEO agency: Ranks your site pages on Google search for your target keywords, allowing you to attract highly targeted website traffic.
4. PPC agency: Launches a paid campaign for showing your ads directly to your target audience to generate leads and clients quickly
5. Full-service agency: Uses online and offline marketing tactics to get the most leads from various channels.

Okay now that you know the types of agencies, let’s look at the top digital marketing agencies for attorneys in 2024. Note that they will typically offer SEO, PPC, and website design services as well. Let’s get started with the first agency on our list.

How Much Do Legal Marketing Services Cost?

How To Choose The Best Agency For Your Law Firm

Choosing the best digital marketing company for your law firm can be a tough task and goes beyond simply reading their case studies. It’s not enough to check their track record – here are some other factors that can help you choose the right company for your firm:

Industry Expertise:The ideal agency should have proven experience in working with firms like yours.

Communication Style: The best agency should align with how you want to communicate and collaborate throughout the duration of the project.

Pricing: Budget is a huge deciding factor for most law firms. An agency should be able to offer competitive pricing plans to win over new clients.

Transparency: An agency should be trustworthy and honest with you at all times, so be wary of agencies that promise results and have claims that are too good to be true.

Culture Fit: Your firm should have a good sense of rapport with a marketing agency’s team. If this doesn’t exist, it would be hard to work together and it will affect the quality of your marketing endeavors.
