Wouldn’t it be fantastic to get them without spending a fortune chasing down the latest digital marketing strategies?
But avoid getting drowned out by other law firms that are all clamoring for the same client, and trying to differentiate your firm isn’t easy.
If it were, every law firm would be generating 8-figures- and you wouldn’t be reading this blog- you’d be in Fiji sipping cocktails-
Getting more cases doesn’t have to be a mystery or elusive objective. And your size or marketing budget is irrelevant.
One of the BEST and most timeless marketing strategies for any smart law firm owner is nurturing and orchestrating Referrals from existing clients.
Here’s the BIG MYTH– If I provide exceptional results for my client and they’re happy with my firm, they will automatically refer their friends and family to me whenever they need representation.
Sounds great. But it’s dead wrong.
Life gets in the way. People forget the lucrative settlement you got for them. They forget how hard you worked to resolve their liens and put more money in their pockets. They forget how many times your case managers talked with them and made time to listen to their frustrations with the legal process. They just forget – unless you take active steps to NURTURE these relationships.
The lawyers who figure this simple concept out and take systematic steps to increase their referrals will realize a steady stream of new cases every month.
Nurturing your past clients just means staying in contact with them so that you create “top of mind” awareness.
Send cards on their birthdays.
Send greeting cards at various holidays throughout the year.
Send out a short white paper or digital newsletter every month or two.
Send texts or emails periodically-
Just stay in touch. It’s that simple.
But that’s not the only way to start signing more referral cases- Where the real value is, and where the real opportunity is- and where you have a chance for actual control- is the ORCHESTRATED REFERRAL.
What is an orchestrated referral? This occurs when you ask for and receive a very specific type of referral.
Many highly successful law firm owners have tapped into a formula for rapid growth that doesn’t depend on innate talent for marketing or take years of expensive trial and error. And it isn’t based on finding the perfect Vender offering the golden egg of market domination.
Their secret is actually simple-
They join a Robust and Genuine Law Firm Owner’s Mastermind Group- so that they have immediate access to the winning strategies that other successful lawyers are implementing in...
Law Firm Outsourcing with Virtual Assistants is a hot topic in 2022 for law firm owners all across the country. Some lawyers swear by it while others shun the idea altogether. Is Virtual Assistant outsourcing right for your firm?
First – let’s start with the misnomer – Virtual Assistants aren’t limited to off-site legal assistants.
The term encompasses any off-site or offshore contractors hired to provide services for your firm that had traditionally been performed in-house. This could include a litany of activities, from answering the phones, handling intake screening, medical records retrieval, or even traditional paralegal and attorney services such as case prep, drafting or responding to discovery, drafting documents, and performing legal research.

We’ve long known the benefits of affirmation and appreciation. Who doesn’t like hearing that they’ve done a good job or that the work they are doing matters? The more we feel appreciated, acknowledged, and affirmed, the happier we are and the harder most of us work to do a good job. It’s human nature. It starts when we can barely walk, proceeds through our school-age years, and continues throughout our adult life. In our personal lives, we readily recognize how...
