The short answer
  • GEO for law firms gets your firm named when clients ask AI assistants and Google's AI Overviews for legal help.
  • AI leans on legal rankings and directories, client reviews, press coverage and firm websites.
  • Accuracy matters: AI sometimes gets practice areas, offices and people wrong. We find it and fix it at the source.
  • Every page goes to your team for sign-off, so it stays within SRA rules in the UK and state bar rules in the US.

Where AI looks

Where does AI look when it recommends a lawyer?

Mostly the same places a careful client would: independent rankings, directories, reviews and the firm's own practice area pages. The mix differs between the UK and the US.

United Kingdom
→Chambers and Partners and The Legal 500 rankings
→The Law Society's Find a Solicitor and the SRA register
→Review sites such as ReviewSolicitors, and Google reviews
→Legal press such as the Law Society Gazette
→Your practice area and lawyer profile pages
United States
→Chambers USA, Best Lawyers and Super Lawyers
→Directories such as Martindale-Hubbell, Avvo and Justia
→Google reviews
→Legal and business press
→Your practice area and attorney profile pages

We align your profiles across all of them, so AI sees one consistent firm instead of five slightly different ones.

Law firm questions

What law firms ask us about GEO.

What is GEO for law firms?

GEO for law firms is the work of getting a firm named and cited accurately when people ask AI assistants and AI search for legal help. It builds on legal SEO and adds the directories, reviews and page structure that AI relies on.

Is GEO allowed under SRA and bar advertising rules?

Yes. GEO is about accurate, helpful information, and the same rules apply as for your website: be accurate, don't mislead, and back up any claim. Your team signs off every page before it goes live.

Can you fix wrong information AI gives about our firm?

Often, yes. We find where the wrong information comes from, usually an old directory listing or an outdated page, correct it at the source, then track whether the answers update.

Which AI tools do you track for law firms?

ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity, Gemini, Microsoft Copilot and Google's AI Overviews, weighted by where your clients actually ask.

How long until we see results?

Accuracy fixes and page changes can show up within weeks. Being recommended consistently for competitive practice areas usually takes three to six months.

Do you work with firms of every size?

We work best with established firms that have clear specialisms. We take one firm per practice area in each city, so we may already be committed in yours. If so, we'll tell you straight away.
