What Detroit customers are searching for
Detroit customers don't search for "law firm." They search with intent — these are the queries we'll help you rank for.
We help lawyers get found across Detroit — including Midtown, Corktown, Downtown, Greektown, and the surrounding neighborhoods.
Why most lawyers miss out
Practice-area searches (PI, divorce, criminal, estate, immigration) convert massively higher than generic 'lawyer' but most firms have weak practice-area pages.
Legal directories (Avvo, FindLaw, Justia, Yelp) outrank independent firms on generic searches — firms need hyper-specific local positioning to win.
Reviews and case-result authority decide nearly every legal hire — most firms have weak review systems and weaker authority content.
