We help you to raise your firm's profile
Marketing your services to potential clients can take up a lot of your valuable time and money. The Law Society runs campaigns throughout the year that help raise your firm's profile with the public and potential clients. We advertise to raise the legal profession's profile, run PR and media campaigns, and use targeted digital media to direct the public to Law Society members.
Our online legal directory, Find A Solicitor, is the most popular legal search site in the UK, with over six million searches for solicitors every year.
Ask a Solicitor campaign 2012
Every year the Law Society runs a major campaign to raise the profile of solicitors in the public eye. The theme for this year's campaign is Ask a Solicitor.
The campaign aims to build on the idea that a solicitor is the best person to advise on many of the common legal issues people face. People are directed to the Law Society's Find A Solicitor search to find quality advice for their legal problems.
This year we're using outdoor advertising to get the message across to as many people as possible. The Ask a Solicitor campaign will run from 1 October 2012, and its message will be seen over 450 million times. This year's campaign will include:
- advertising and editorial features in 52 top regional papers
- advertising on 220 railway stations across England and Wales
- advertising inside 5,000 buses
- PR coverage in the regional and local media
