Attaching an identifiable brand to your Law Firm is very important to ensure success for your Law Firm.
Your brand is a reflection of your firm’s culture and ethos, and it forms the first impression potential clients will have. So, let’s make sure it’s perfect.The term Branding is a conglomeration of numerous functions that must be undertaken to ensure success for the law firm. Branding initiates subsequent actions in diverse zones, like:
Increasing perception and visibility of law firm and logo.
Formulating a law firm that can immediately inspire public faith.
Identifying and carefully nurturing the potential clients profile.
Branding, including the law firm name and logo, is not a tangible asset of a law firm, unlike physical assets like resources and institutions, and is only useful in increasing the goodwill of the law firm, and accentuating the reputation and identity of the firm.
Your brand is more than your logo. It’s your firm’s culture. It’s what you say and how you say it. It’s your firm’s history, and it’s your firm’s future. It’s how you work and who you work with.
Careful and cautious planning must go into branding, before it is implemented for profit maximizing. Identifying and isolating attracting client base with specific incentives & comprehension of their requirements are to be ensured before branding is undertaken.
If you want your firm to be the one that someone selects when searching online you must tick a number of boxes. You must have the right kind of legal website content in the right structure, presented effectively to search. You must speak to your audience, about their fears, uncertainties and doubts – and their hopes and expectations.
Some very essential steps to secure and devise a successful Brand for the Law Firm:
1. Defining your Unique Selling Point: To define your Unique Selling Point ask the following questions. Bear in mind that the more understanding you have of your key values, the easier it is to convey expertise and experience.
• What makes your firm different from anyone else in your geographic market?
• If I need a lawyer, why should I call your firm?
• What is the specific practice you are focusing on?
• What do you do in that area of practice that helps your clients?
• What made you get into this area of law?
• What are your goals in this area of law?
• How has your practice or your life experience informed what you do? Do you have unique insight or understanding in this area?
• How do you measure success in a case/matter?
• Why are you different to your competitors in this area of law?
• What do you do that adds value to your clients?
2. Consumer service: Every client needs to be respected and understood, and being inattentive or unmindful of even a single client can mean massive losses for your law firm. As you all know favorable response from a client helps attract ten more.
3. Public perception: The treatment of a single client can spread very fast on word of the mouth,
and negative publicity jeopardizes your firm. Prior commitments are to be respected, punctually, to increase goodwill of the brand.
4. Usage of legal technological advancements: The denial of the impact of internet in your law firm would be improper. Your Brand must also be regularly updated and implemented with advanced legal technologies.
5. Be prepared to evolve: Brand consistency is critical, but market needs and consumer expectations evolve. To maintain a successful brand over time, you must continuously monitor the market and be prepared to adjust accordingly. That doesn’t mean, though, that you should redefine yourself with every new trend in the legal industry. Build a solid core and then adapt as necessary to true market shifts.
