Client overview

Client Overview

This Englewood, CO PI law firm case study highlights a boutique personal injury practice specializing in car accidents, truck accidents, and other motor vehicle accident (MVA) cases, as well as premises liability and slip-and-fall matters. The firm handles all cases on a contingency-fee basis and is well-regarded in its community. Despite a strong reputation, new client growth relied heavily on word-of-mouth referrals, and the firm struggled to capture leads online. Since most clients contact the firm by phone, improving its local SEO was essential to boosting qualified inquiries and driving consistent growth.

Challenges

Challenges

Before working with SnowdriftCO, the firm had limited local search visibility, two Google Business Profiles with separate reviews, inconsistent contact information across directories, and fewer online reviews than some local competitors. The firm had also recently changed its name, address, and phone number on Google. At the same time, it decided to focus its marketing on personal injury cases, including car accidents, trucking accidents, and premises liability. Its website and local presence needed to reflect that shift.

01

Limited Online Visibility

The firm’s website lacked proper search engine optimization (SEO), making it difficult to rank for relevant keywords in local search results.

02

Unclaimed and Duplicate Google Business Profiles (GBP)

The firm had two Google Business Profiles, each with its own reviews, creating an inconsistent presence on Google.

03

Inconsistent NAP (Name, Address, Phone Number) Information

The firm’s contact details varied across different online directories, leading to confusion for both search engines and potential clients. Additionally, just prior to SnowdriftCO taking over the account, the firm's name, address, and phone number were all changed in their GBP, further impacting performance and necessitating a thorough update across all platforms.

04

Few Online Reviews

Like many businesses, the firm faced challenges in capturing as many online reviews as some of its competitors. Without strong social proof, prospective clients lacked confidence in choosing the firm.
