Do you work with all law firm practice areas in San Jose?

Yes. We work with employment law, IP, business, family law, estate planning, personal injury, criminal defense, and more. Every campaign is calibrated to your specific practice and to the SJ client segments most likely to send those cases.

How long before we see leads from SEO and ads?

Paid ads (Google, LinkedIn, Bing) start delivering qualified SJ leads within 7–14 days of launch. SEO builds compounding momentum from month two and typically delivers strong organic flow by month four to six.

Are LinkedIn ads worth it for San Jose law firms?

For employment, IP, and business law — yes, significantly. LinkedIn lets you target by job title, company size, and seniority. For a wrongful termination case or IP dispute, finding the decision-maker directly is far more efficient than search-only.

How much does a typical San Jose engagement cost?

Engagements are scoped to your firm size, target practice areas, and growth goals. Most SJ firms work with us on a custom-quoted monthly engagement covering ongoing SEO + paid + website management, with a one-time setup for new sites. Free audit included before any commitment.

Will the content be reviewed by attorneys?

Yes. AI accelerates content production, but every page, ad, and FAQ is reviewed for legal accuracy and California Bar compliance before it goes live.

What does the free audit include?

A full review of your current website performance, search visibility across Silicon Valley, ad spend efficiency, top SJ competitor analysis, and a prioritized action plan with projected lead lift. Delivered in 48 hours, no commitment required.

SJ Firm Pain Points

What's actually broken for San Jose law firms

Real problems we hear from founders and managing partners — and how we fix them with AI.

The Problem

Tech clients research everything — and your firm doesn't rank

Silicon Valley clients are the most research-intensive legal market in California. They vet firms on Google, LinkedIn, Glassdoor, and Avvo before ever making contact. Without deep search presence, you're invisible to the clients who can pay the most.

How we fix it

Technical authority SEO built for Silicon Valley intent: employment, IP, business, and PI pages that rank for the specific queries tech workers and founders use — plus AI Overview presence and LinkedIn authority signals.

Result:+3.3× organic traffic in 90 days

The Problem

Employment and IP cases require specialized positioning

San Jose clients searching for employment law or IP attorneys are evaluating dozens of firms on technical merit, case results, and domain expertise. Generic law firm marketing fails to signal the expertise they require before hiring.

How we fix it

Deep-expertise content for tech-specific practice areas: wrongful termination, non-compete, equity disputes, IP litigation, and business formation. Each page built to demonstrate domain authority that converts tech-educated clients.

Result:+67% qualified consultation rate

The Problem

Ad budgets evaporate in one of CA's most expensive markets

San Jose CPCs rival San Francisco. Without smart AI bid management and intent-layer targeting, your campaigns attract researchers, law students, and unqualified clicks — while qualified tech clients find competitors.

How we fix it

AI-managed Google, Bing, Meta, and LinkedIn campaigns optimized by intent signals, company size targeting, and job title targeting. Smart bidding that finds the right SJ clients for a fraction of the cost of spray-and-pray.

Result:−44% cost per qualified lead
