Why FindLaw??


Why FindLaw? What do you offer that no other company does? I get this question every day so I thought it was time to post a blog on why FindLaw and what makes us unique in the market place and how we can benefit your practice.

Anyone can say anything which is why I like to demonstrate FindLaw's effectiveness and domination live on the Internet. I know I always feel better about spending money when I have a reasonable assurance that the money being spent is being spent wisely. Doing live searches in person shows how the web sites designed and developed by FindLaw do show up on the first page of many of the most popular search engines like Google and Yahoo (combined: almost 75% of the entire search engine market) Typically, a number of the web sites that show up "organically" on the first page in these searches are web sites put out by FindLaw. No other attorney web site design firm can claim that.

Listed below are many of the reasons why you should, at a minimum, consider FindLaw.

FindLaw visitors have a Median Income that is twice the national average

Hi Jon.....You have some great points here. I feel like my eyes have been opened. I was speaking with another company but would like to speak with you as well before I make any decisions. I will call you to set up a meeting.
