Social Media Strategy for Law Firms
The biggest problem with law firms when managing their Social Media is creating engaging content and working delivering a Social Media strategy, the majority of law firms will play it safe and publish the same old content week after week. At Staxton, we want to break down these barriers, make a statement, and help you get engagement and promote your law firm’s brand. This can be done through a number of methods, video, animation, and bespoke content.
We believe in creating unique and tailored content for every law firm we collaborate with. No copy and paste job here – everything is crafted just for you based your law firms branding guidelines.
Let's kickstart your Social Media strategy by developing a strategic plan to help you achieve your goals. We will work closely together to map out your strategy and curate compelling media content that captivates your audience.
Key elements of my social media management include as standard:
- Organise, cooperate and arrange content for your various social platforms including Facebook, LinkedIn, LinkedIn Profiles, Twitter (X), Instagram, and Google My Business
- Uncover trends and valuable information about your brand, when your audience is engaged, and what times to post
- Receive monthly actionable reports that shed light on what's effective—and what's not. Including a detailed 1-2-1 review with me on additional marketing actions
- Respond promptly to time-sensitive comments that mention your law firms brand. Know that your posts are getting a human reply to any comments including reviews.
All the content we create belongs to you. My role is to provide the spark and inspiration you need to fuel your social media channels.
On average I save my clients from 3 to 8 hours per week managing their law firms social media presence, their profiles and more.
Results I have achieved in the last 6 months for a number of clients include:

Will Social Media get me more clients?
Overtime yes, but you need to be patient. Most people fail with Social Media as they don’t give it enough time or try to sell their services on every post they create. We help to create engaging content your clients will find value in.
-
How do I get my staff more engaged with our Social Media?
The first place to start is with your Social Media policy, what does it say they can / can’t do? The next step would be to discuss with your team why they don’t engage with the firm’s social media. This can be down to time constraints but more commonly they lack the confidence in creating content. We help to coach individuals to use Social Media as part of the Business Development process.
