Generating new family law and divorce clients by ranking first in Google organic search.
Family law is one of the most competitive legal verticals there is.
There’s more competitors by the day, and the law firms at the top of the market are willing to spend whatever it takes to suppress you from getting leads.
There’s a number of ways to market your family law firm – create video content, social media marketing, billboards, digital advertising…
They all work – but there’s one tactic that’s a clear winner for family lawyers: search engine optimization.Â
You’ve probably tried SEO before, and it likely didn’t work. It was slow, expensive and didn’t produce meaningful results.
SEO is in constant flux – if you (or your agency) are not on top of the changes, you’re guaranteed to fail.
But if you deploy the right SEO strategy, you can double, triple, or even quadruple your leads, guaranteed.
FREE SEO ANALYSISMost family lawyers struggle to get SEO results because your agency is using an outdated approach.
For example, when you search for “divorce attorney near me” you will see multiple types of results.
Most SEO approaches fail to get results because their strategy is only focused on one pocket of search engines. If you don’t focus on optimizing for all of Google, then you won’t cast a wide enough net to get attention.
Our approach to SEO drives results because we focus on multiple parts of Google (aka a “blended” approach).
Our “Blended” strategy targets multiple areas of Google (local, content, ads), which is the only way to pick up rankings that lead to actual business results.
As a family lawyer, you’re used to getting overpromised and under-delivered when it comes to SEO. Our Blended search approach is proven to work in the family law and divorce space.

We get it – you don’t trust SEO agencies. As a lawyer, you’re used to getting overpromised and under-delivered when it comes to SEO. Here are a few case studies from law firms who are getting more leads because of our SEO services.
Out of all the lead generation tactics at your disposal, SEO is by far the most impactful for family law firms.
There’s nothing more powerful thank ranking on top of Google when prospective clients are seeking your services.
While Local Service Ads and Google Ads appear at the top of the Search Engine Results Page (SERP), many individuals today recognize these as paid placements and often choose to bypass the ads section in favor of what they perceive as the most reliable, unbiased, and earned spots – namely, the organic results
Google Ads can serve as a significant source of traffic, but keywords related to family law can be costly, requiring ongoing investment each month to maintain lead flow. SEO, conversely, offers traffic that doesn’t come with a direct cost per visit. While it necessitates investment in the right strategies to reach the top of Google, securing that position means Google effectively provides you with free traffic and potential leads around the clock.
Organic search results are generally viewed as more credible and genuine by users, as they are not the result of financial outlay. The Google Business Profile enhances your firm’s legitimacy by displaying reviews, photos, and business hours, making it easier for potential clients to call or message directly from the SERP without navigating to your website.
Although SEO is highly competitive, it proves to be more cost-effective than Pay-Per-Click (PPC) advertising in the long term. Large firms may have extensive budgets for Ads, inflating the costs. However, with SEO, outspending larger competitors isn’t necessary; a smarter SEO strategy suffices. It’s often observed that top-ranking pages in organic search may lack content, have no backlinks, or haven’t been updated for years, presenting an opportunity for your firm to surpass them.
Our “blended” search strategy is crafted to enhance your visibility and rankings within your local market.
Many agencies fall short in delivering outcomes due to their narrow focus on limited sections of the search engine result pages. In contrast, we seize every available opportunity to ensure your law firm attracts high-quality leads:
Google prioritizes ranking websites that are straightforward and user-friendly, highlighting the importance of your website’s technical aspects being finely tuned. Here are several key areas we assess and optimize for you:
To achieve a ranking within the local “Maps pack,” specific additional optimizations are required:
Each campaign kicks off with our proprietary Website Quality Audit. This comprehensive review provides us with crucial insights regarding the current state of your website’s content, identifies areas with the greatest potential, and highlights any quality concerns or errors that need to be rectified.
Leveraging this analysis, our team undertakes the following tasks:
Links are crucial in SEO, acting as an endorsement from other sites regarding your credibility and reliability, which significantly influences your ranking within search engine algorithms.
In the context of local SEO, our strategy is to secure high-quality, locally relevant links that demonstrate to search engines the strong connection and significance of your business within the local community.
For optimizing local SEO, the most beneficial links are those from respected local businesses, pertinent websites, community and industry-specific directories, local news outlets, and also from local chambers of commerce or specialized associations.
The principle is straightforward: without links, your website will struggle to rank for your target keywords. However, it’s important to note that not all links are beneficial; some can do more harm than good.
Therefore, our approach is to focus on acquiring only those high-quality, impactful links that will significantly enhance your rankings.
In contrast to conventional Ads (PPC), which charge per click, Local Services Ads (LSAs) operate on a pay-per-lead basis, meaning you only incur costs for ads that result in direct engagement, such as calls or text messages.
These advertisements are positioned at the top of Google search results, offering unparalleled visibility. Additionally, earning the Google Guarantee badge, which is given to businesses that pass Google’s thorough screening and qualification checks, significantly boosts trust and assurance among prospective clients.
To achieve success with LSAs, it is crucial to uphold a stellar reputation via positive reviews, quick response times, and by keeping your business credentials up to date.
As a part of our SEO offerings, we assist our clients in getting verified and setting up their LSAs account at no extra charge.
Our SEO services are second to none, and because of that, we often turn away more leads than we accept.
We only take on a handful of new clients per month to ensure our services drive the results needed to make your law firm more money.
Our services are a great fit if you…
If that sounds like you, we’d love to have a conversation with you to see how we can help you generate more leads with SEO.
Book your free consultation hereIn the highly competitive realm of family and divorce law, our approach is customized to both the unique aspects of each market and the specific needs of our clients. SEO operates on a principle of zero sum, meaning our real competition isn't Google, but rather other law firms vying for the same visibility. By understanding our position in relation to our competitors, we are able to devise a strategic action plan that clearly outlines the steps towards achieving success.
Most family law firms begin seeing measurable improvements in rankings within 3-4 months of implementing our Blended SEO strategy. However, the full impact typically develops over 6-8 months as our technical optimizations, content creation, and link acquisition efforts compound. Unlike paid ads that stop generating leads when you stop paying, SEO results continue to build and strengthen over time.
Our Blended approach targets multiple areas of Google simultaneously – organic listings, local map pack, and Google Business Profile optimization – rather than focusing on just one aspect of search visibility. Most agencies fail because they only optimize for one segment of Google's results. Our comprehensive strategy ensures your firm captures potential clients across all search touchpoints, casting a wider net that delivers actual business results.
While Google Ads can generate immediate traffic, family law keywords are extremely expensive, requiring constant investment to maintain lead flow. SEO, though initially requiring investment to reach top positions, eventually provides free traffic and leads around the clock without per-click costs. Additionally, users often trust organic results more than paid advertisements, leading to higher quality inquiries and better client acquisition costs over time.
We track success through multiple key performance indicators: improvement in keyword rankings, growth in organic search traffic, increases in qualified leads (phone calls and form submissions), enhanced local visibility, and ultimately, your return on investment. Our clients typically see dramatic increases in inbound inquiries – like the 618% increase in phone calls Moshtael Law experienced in just six months – which directly translates to more revenue for your firm.
Not necessarily. We begin every engagement with our proprietary Website Quality Audit to determine if your current site can be optimized effectively or if redesign elements are needed. Many times, we can significantly improve rankings by enhancing your existing website through technical fixes, content additions, and proper optimization rather than starting from scratch. Our goal is to maximize results while minimizing unnecessary expenses.
Our SEO services start at $4,000 per month, with investment levels varying based on your market competitiveness and growth goals. We've found this to be the minimum effective investment to drive meaningful results in the highly competitive family law vertical. Compared to the value of even a single divorce case (which can be worth $10,000-$30,000+), most clients see extraordinary returns on their SEO investment within the first few months.
No, we maintain strict exclusivity agreements to ensure we never work with competing law firms in the same market. When you partner with us, you can be confident that the SEO strategies and insights we develop are exclusive to your firm. This allows us to focus entirely on getting your practice to dominate the local search results without dividing our efforts or creating conflicts of interest.
Our team handles the entire LSA setup process, including verification, business profile optimization, and strategic configuration – all included at no additional cost with our SEO services. We'll ensure your firm passes Google's screening process to earn the Google Guarantee badge, which significantly enhances consumer trust. LSAs operate on a pay-per-lead basis, meaning you only pay for actual potential clients rather than mere clicks, creating an effective complement to organic SEO efforts.
Our content strategy begins with comprehensive keyword research specific to divorce and family law. We identify high-value topics that potential clients are searching for and create authoritative content that demonstrates your expertise. Each piece of content is strategically optimized for search engines while maintaining a compassionate, professional tone that resonates with individuals facing difficult family situations. This balanced approach helps position your firm as both technically competent and emotionally understanding.

From the way we operate to the way we structure our contracts, we’re not here to bill you for busy work, we’re here to help you land big cases.
