"My website more than pays for itself every month and shows me a very solid return on investment" 

"I have had a FindLaw website since 2006 and have been very happy with the results as I get a lot of business from my site. I show up very prominently on Google. My website more than pays for itself every month and shows me a very solid return on investment. Working with FindLaw has been a pleasure and my sales consultant, Jon Reiter, is extremely responsive to me and takes care of whatever needs to be done right away."

FindLaw developed our first website around 10 years ago. Since then we have worked with FindLaw to optimize and redesign that website several times and have also created a new website within the last two years. During the years we have had many different Sales Representatives, but Jon stands out as caring and dedicated among those representatives. He is always available to answer questions and he keeps us well informed of the latest marketing trends and tools to keep our Internet business thriving. There have been a few bumps throughout our relationship with FindLaw, but overall our experience has been a positive one for our business. Our websites reach potential clients in a way that yellow page advertising cannot do simply by providing them with a wealth of information about our firm and the type of law that we practice. The websites have proved to be a great investment for our firm.

"I have been with FindLaw for almost three years now and have been very happy with the results they have gotten for me on the Internet. While it took some time to achieve what I wanted, which is being on the top of the first page of Google, FindLaw has helped me to get there for more than just a few searches.  I am grateful for what FindLaw has been able to accomplish for my practice.  They are helping me grow my business with a steady stream of clients.

Working with Jon has also been a pleasure. I trust that when he says something to me I can count on that being the case. He is rare in a sea of people making bold promises just to make a sale. That is not his way. He is always honest with me and sets proper expectations and I appreciate that."

"FindLaw's product pays for itself the first week of every month and is our number one source of new clients" 

"When Jon asked me to write a testimonial for him, I wasn't quite sure what to write. I mean, this is a guy who not only talks about customer service, but lives it. Who else returns e-mails at 10:00 p.m. when he is on his HONEYMOON?!?! I don't know what that says about the future of his marriage, but it sure says a lot about his dedication to his clients. In all seriousness, FindLaw's product pays for itself the first week of every month and is our number one source of new clients. I highly recommend both Jon and FindLaw for any attorney looking for advertising."

Jon:

In the last three years or so that you have worked with me I have found you to be of great help in making me aware of the internet as a marketing tool for my bankruptcy practice. Further, my advertising through FindLaw has more than achieved the results in client referrals which I had hoped for.

"I have canceled all advertising other than the web.  Thank you FindLaw." 

Since I have had my website with Findlaw, my business has grown from that of a solo practictioner to the largest family law firm in Colorado Springs. I have cancelled all advertising other than the web. I have better clients, I have more clients, I have happier clients. Thank you Findlaw.

FindLaw created my website in 2003 and, with subsequent updates, it has been a very successful marketing tool for my practice. It has also enabled me to be way more efficient in educating and screening potential clients as well as instructing them how to prepare for the initial office conference. I have received calls from attorneys in other parts of the USA complimenting (and also copying) features of my FindLaw website. Every lawyer's goal is "fewer and better clients". The website has been very useful and successful towards achieving this goal. My Yellow Page ads, Dex, Bankruptcy Action, and Martindale Hubbell websites are primarily for the purpose of directing interested parties to my jonbclarke.com FindLaw-hosted website.

Working with Jon Reiter, my FindLaw Consultant has also been very easy and very productive. He keeps in touch with me on a regular basis and the recommendations he has made for upgrades have always been right on and beneficial. Jon's customer service is second to none. He has become a trusted Internet Marketing Consultant and it's a pleasure to work with him.

I have enjoyed working with FindLaw and look forward to a continued successful relationship with this organization.

"The results are well worth it." 

I have tried several other marketing services, but the one that consistently produces for me is my Thomson West Web site. I have "grown" my site as my practice prospered, and I now have a custom site. It's more expensive than a template site, but the results are well worth it. I have been so please with my Web site that, instead of adding and additional marketing partner, I simply invested more in the Thomson West site. It's been money well spent.

"A great service to lawyers..."

"Prior to devising my website, I was reluctant to spend the money and be uncertain as to the amounts of cases I would receive. I no longer have that fear. It has provided a broad base of information for potential clients. One recent client said he came to me because my website offered more information than others. Hearing that was important. It told me I made a good move into the cyber century because that's where people are looking. WestGroup has provided a great service to us lawyers in helping us devise the appropriate website that is user friendly."

"Respond to the needs of our clients..."

The Attorney seeking to; acquire new clients, manage costs, increase profits, keep up with change, retain clients, or staying competitive, must have not just a presence on the internet, they must have an effective presence. It is now presence or perish, and it should be. We, attorneys, must respond to the needs of our clients and embrace the anarchy of the explosion of information for it is in the best interest of our clients.

We strongly recommend FindLaw!

Thank you West Group! Our firm has been on FindLaw for over a year, and the clients and feedback we have gotten from it have been excellent! When Kevin came in and proposed a web presence to us we were skeptical. We knew it was something we needed to do, but didn't know how to get it done. The web manger, content writers, etc. have been responsive and helpful. This site was up quickly, looked professional, and they take care of all the changes and maintenance. With their complete line of services we concentrate on our clients, not trying to be a web master. We highly recommend West/FindLaw!

FindLaw is the new "yellow pages".

"FindLaw is the new "yellow pages". I was skeptical of FindLaw at first but am pleased with the results-more client inquiries in my specialty area of practice. I'm more accessible to people looking for an attorney."

...it has been a very positive experience for our law firm.

"In early 2004, my law firm, Inman Flynn Biesterfeld Brentlinger & Moritz, P.C. engaged Thomson West to build a website. For several years, we had a website that provided very basic information and was not easy to navigate. Kevin and his team created a very practical yet sophisticated website which included special advertising through FindLaw. We have experienced a noticeable increase in website traffic and referrals since the new website design was implemented. The website has increased our profitability.

Also, we have received many favorable comments from clients and other law firms after they have visited our website.

I have found FindLaw very receptive to changes which we want to make to the website. Overall, it has been a very positive experience for our law firm."

...largest cases as a result...

"Over the years, I have been with three different law firms, all of which, including the current firm that I am with, have used your services for their website. I can say that each firm with which you have worked with me in the past has been completely satisfied. In fact, the two previous firms that I have been with each received their largest cases as a result of the website designed, provided and hosted by FindLaw.

I am very excited about my third series of FindLaw websites. I am convinced that it will pay off for my current firm as it has each time before."

Calls and emails for new clients almost immediately...

"We recently became customers of Thomson-West and they currently maintain and update our website. Prior to November 2003, our firm did not advertise on the Internet. In the four short months that our website has been up an running, we have noticed a significant difference.

We started receiving calls and emails for new clients almost immediately. The implementation has been a great investment for our firm.

In addition, we have found the staff at Thomson-West to be efficient, professional, competent, knowledgeable and very easy to work with. The staff continually monitors the number of hits and reports to us on the traffic to our website.

We are excited about the new opportunities that we have been exposed to through our website and we feel that utilizing the services of Thomson-West was great decision for us"

One of the smartest things I've done for this office...

"One of the smartest things I've done for this office so far is to have FindLaw host my website! The response has been amazing and I couldn't be more pleased. My hesitation and worry has been replaced with almost daily phone calls and numerous appointments and retainers-in less than the one month. I can't wait to see the results in six months-then a year.

The final website looks professional and draws in clients. I am especially pleased with the FAQ pages-this is definitely worth the money. Also, the ability to continually modify and update the site is very appealing. You and the FindLaw staff have been very helpful and attentive to my requests and I really appreciate all of you.

Thank you so much for bringing this valuable resource to my attention."

Great Results from FindLaw

"The staff from FindLaw have been extremely helpful with all of our questions, concerns, changes, and new material for our website. I would recommend FindLaw to any law firm. Their reports help us get an overview of our progress on our website. We have had many clients say when searching for our area of practice, our firm always is shown. Our searches are an attribute to our FindLaw website. We are very satisfied with our website at FindLaw.

FindLaw excelled...end result far exceeded my expectations!

"It is not often that a vendor exceeds my expectation of them, but the FindLaw team definitely did. During the whole process, including the end result, FindLaw excelled and the end result far exceeded the expectation I had for my website. As opposed to Martindale who hardly communicated with me. FindLaw was always in contact with me explaining each step."

After 3-4 years of 'trying' to use the Internet to generate business, I finally picked the right company. In our first two weeks with FindLaw, our Web site generated 22 contacts between phone calls and e-mails! I recommend the service to anyone who wants to expand their law firm's business through the Internet."

In the last few months, our FindLaw site has generated:

• A 6-figure automobile injury case
• A multi-million dollar death case
• A Chicago-based attorney referral for an automobile case in western Kentucky
• And very solid levels of new cases for our Workers' Compensation practice

I particularly appreciate your ability to help us analyze our site's performance and uncover unique opportunities. We're strongly considering a significant upgrade to our site to include video, Spanish content, and information to attract additional types of injury cases. I'm remain very confident in FindLaw's ability to deliver results for our firm.

In summary, it simply works!

Please feel free to use me as a reference for your prospective clients. The Internet is a vital tool for any firm if they work with FindLaw.

"I am totally pleased with my FindLaw FirmSite and Directory products. So far, my investment has resulted in actually opening one high-quality new case per month, has paid for itself several times over in less than a year and the intangible return has been even greater. Smartest marketing I've ever done."

"I have been with Findlaw for 3-4 years now. I suppose that I started before internet advertising became "cool" Initially I tried other web services. These tended to be template-built or referral type websites. They were generally a "one size fits all" arrangement. I found those results very disappointing. Based on those experiences, I entered the relationship with Findlaw with a great deal of cynicism. Fortunately, I have never been disappointed with the results from Findlaw.

As you know, I track my incoming cases pretty closely. I know which advertising is working and which is not. From the beginning, I have been keenly aware that my internet presence through Findlaw has resulted in an increase in actual cases. In fact, enough cases that each year I have increased my budget for Findlaw. The same cannot be said for my Yellow Pages budget.

In the end, Findlaw has been a very successful and cost effective means of generating new cases, not just calls or leads, but actual fee generating cases. I am happy to recommend ( and have done so ) Findlaw to any lawyer considering your services.

With kind regards,
Paul Goodson

"I just wanted to drop you a line to let you know how pleased we are with the firmsite. Thanks for convincing us to do it. Our website has only been online for three months and already has brought in more money than we will pay for it over the first year."

"We are very pleased with our FindLaw Web site to date. The firm has acquired clients that have produced fees of approximately ten times the investment we have made with FindLaw. We look forward to consulting with Steve to find new ways you can further assist us with increasing Web traffic in the areas we discussed."

"As a small firm practicing in a specialized area of the law, my listing in FindLaw has been the best source of quality matters coming to my firm.

"FindLaw delivers to me more inquiries from potential clients than all other Internet services I contract combined. Their recommendations for layout, content, etc. are right on the money, which dovetails exceedingly well with their optimization program. I consider this to be an excellent investment."

"I just wanted to let you know that I am so pleased with the success of my website. The results have been a lot more than I ever expected. Since I started with you in March, 2005, I have been getting many phone calls and emails from prospective clients. I am truly impressed with the quality of the inquires coming from my website. The clients are from all different backgrounds and have different needs. From divorce, DWI, criminal matters, etc. they all are good, quality cases who found me either through the search engines or from findlaw.com. When you and I met, I was slowly trying to build my new practice and money was definitely an issue. You worked with me to create a web program that I could afford. You told me "don't worry, it'll work!!" but I was very nervous. Well, I am so glad that I listened to you. Less than 2 years into the website, I have recently moved into larger offices, hired additional staff and am busier than ever - in large part to the website! Thanks so much for everything!"

"Our firm's experience with Thomson/FindLaw team has been positive from the outset. The project managers are experienced, the designers are knowledgeable and accommodating, and the troubleshooters solve problems quickly with minimal fuss. Most importantly, the product has thus far performed as advertised, if not better. We never thought that a small firm such as ours would be able to obtain a competitive edge through website design and optimization, but the results speak for themselves. Amazingly, our website frequently ranks as one of the top 5 results on the first page of Google searches in our targeted practice areas; sexual harassment, wrongful termination, wage and hour claims, and employment discrimination in Los Angeles. I would recommend the Thomson/FindLaw team to anyone without reservation to any practitioner who wishes to generate more business."

WRITTEN VIDEO TESTIMONIALS

A letter from attorney Ed Levy, Edward Levy, P.C. Attorneys at Law

Since we added video to our FindLaw Web site, we're getting an additional 25-30 more contacts to our firm per month. These potential clients are more prepared to engage our firm and are easier to convert as clients. The clients essentially have been introduced to the firm and know what they are "buying" from the video. Clients have commented that they saw the video and that I look just like I did on the video. Our relaxed style portrayed by the video has helped convey our firm's ability to reduce the client stress which boosts our consumer bankruptcy practice. A law firm Web site video allows lawyers to portray themselves and convey their firm's unique style, something which can't really be accomplished through print and other non-video channels.

FindLaw video helps potential clients know me better, something a website simply cannot do. Instead of just words on a page, people can see my personality when they watch my FindLaw video. Video helps me stand out from the competition.

The quality of the video product contributes to the ease in which I can convey my personality to site visitors. The Studio-Shot process was very good. The FindLaw video staff is extremely professional. I would not change anything about the process.

With FindLaw video on my website, I am able to present a human aspect that other forms of marketing cannot. Clients benefit from this because they are hiring someone they feel like they already know.

Re: FindLaw Video

Several months ago our firm determined to improve its Internet presence by adding FindLaw Video to its website. We wanted to make our website unique and more personal so that potential clients would have a better feeling about the lawyers that they would encounter. This alleviates the fear of contacting us and we believe it provides a better opportunity to turn prospects into real clients.

We hired FindLaw to produce the video and were very pleased with their prompt response. The shoot was scheduled and conducted promptly and professionally. The FindLaw personnel were very helpful and provided a comfortable setting in which to shoot the various video scenes. They allowed us a great deal of input into the content, but provided additional input into the process as well.

Our firm's clients have noticed the addition of videos and commented very favorably on them. I believe that it has increased the number of contacts made after reviewing our website and also increased the successful conversion of those contacts into business for us.

I believe that the FindLaw video is an excellent value and makes our Internet presence much less threatening to potential clients, allowing a great number of potential clients to be converted into actual clients. I would certainly recommend this to any law firm that is seeking to improve its website and the amount of business it receives from Internet marketing.
