SEO means showing up when someone nearby searches for a solicitor, on Google, on the map and increasingly inside AI answers. We build your website into the searches that turn into enquiries: conveyancing, divorce and family law, wills and probate, personal injury and employment law and the everyday legal work. You get found. You get the enquiry. You take the client on.

What is included

You do not need to buy SEO, a website person, a maps person and a social person separately. It is all one job to us, on one monthly fee. Tap through to see what each part does for your firm.

Local SEO

The core of it. We build your site around the searches that bring instructions, so when someone in your area looks for a solicitor you are one of the names they see. Landing pages, practice-area pages, supporting guides and a tight internal structure that Google trusts.

Google Maps

The map pack sits above the normal results. For local firms it is often where the enquiry starts. We set up and sharpen your Google Business Profile so you show for nearby searches, then keep it worked on rather than left to drift.

Website management

Your site is looked after, not left alone. Pages built and updated, load speed watched, clear calls to action in the right places so a visitor becomes an enquiry rather than a bounce.

AI optimisation

More people now ask AI assistants which solicitor to use. We structure your content and data so those tools can read it and surface your firm, which is fast becoming its own front door to legal work.

Facebook

Regular posts that keep your firm visible to local people and remind past clients you exist. Local recommendation still runs on Facebook in most towns.

Instagram

Your team, your community work and plain-English legal tips build familiarity and trust. We keep a steady feed going so your firm feels approachable before someone ever calls.

LinkedIn

Two posts a week aimed at the commercial and referral side, where businesses, accountants, estate agents and other professionals look for a firm to refer work to.

How it works

Four steps, then we keep going

STEP 01

We study your patch

We audit your website and your area to find the searches worth winning and the practice areas worth chasing.

STEP 02

We build the pages

A landing page, practice-area pages, a hub and supporting guides, linked into a tight cluster with the right structure behind it so Google understands you.

STEP 03

We turn visits into enquiries

Clear calls to action on the pages that rank, your Google Maps listing sorted and your reviews put to work.

STEP 04

We keep at it

An update on the work every three weeks and a full audit every quarter. SEO rewards the ones who do not stop.

Worth a look

What could more visibility be worth

Drag the sliders. Even a handful of extra matters a month adds up quickly against a monthly SEO fee. This is a rough illustration to think with, not a promise of results.

Frequently asked

SEO for solicitors, answered

How does SEO get a solicitor more clients?
People who need a solicitor search for one, usually on a phone, usually with words like solicitors near me or divorce solicitor. SEO puts your firm in front of those people at the moment they are ready to act. We build your website, your Google Business Profile and your search presence so that when someone nearby needs conveyancing, a divorce, a will or an injury claim, they find you first. More visibility at the right moment means more enquiries. More enquiries mean more instructions.
How much does SEO cost for a solicitor?
Our plans start at £350 a month for local SEO covering one service area, with everything included: local SEO, Google Maps, website management, social, AI optimisation, quarterly audits and monthly reporting. Larger plans cover more areas or national reach. There is one clear monthly fee and no setup charge, so you always know what you are paying. The complete guide breaks it down further.
How long does SEO take to work for a solicitor?
SEO is a build, not a switch. Google Maps and quieter local terms can move in the early weeks. The more competitive practice-area searches usually take a few months of steady work to climb and hold. We will not promise page one by a certain date, because no one can say for sure. What we do promise is consistent work every month and clear reporting so you can see exactly what is happening.
Do I still need legal directories and comparison sites if I have SEO?
Those platforms charge you to appear or charge per enquiry and the same enquiry often goes to several firms at once, so you are paying to compete. SEO is different. You own your rankings and the enquiries come straight to you with no per-enquiry charge. Many firms keep a listing ticking over while their own search presence grows, then lean on it less as the direct enquiries build. We weigh it up properly in how to compete with legal comparison websites.
Which areas can you rank my firm in?
One area on the local plan, more areas on the larger plans. If you cover several towns we build the site so each area has its own reason to rank rather than one page trying to cover everywhere. The demand table on this page is a good place to start when deciding where to compete.
Does this work for any type of law?
Yes. Conveyancing, family law and divorce, wills and probate, personal injury and employment law all have their own searches and we target each one with its own page. If you take commercial or business law work we can target that B2B intent separately, because the people searching for it use very different words to a private client.
