For Criminal Defense Attorneys Serious About Making At Least An Additional $1 Million Per Year
Are you serious about growing your criminal defense law firm and want to make at least $1 million per year in additional revenue?
So many criminal defense lawyers all have the same problems:
- They are relying on referrals and word of mouth
- They are not sure what marketing channels to focus on or even what to do on them
- They have no plan on how they will actually grow the business
- Their marketing agency quite frankly sucks
- Or they don’t even know what they are missing out on and think they are doing “fine”
Listen, if you are happy where you are and are not serious about growing your firm, there’s no point reading further.
I’m looking specifically for firms who know they can do better, want to make money and need an A-player to help them get there.
Let’s cut straight to the chase.
I’ve helped about half a dozen law firms along with a dozen other businesses get absolutely obscene results from Google.
Literally every client I have worked with for over 12 months is getting thousands of visitors per month, hundreds of leads and dozens of clients:
I know exactly what to do to show your website to the right people and what to say to them to convert them into paying clients.
Now I want to get serious.
I’m looking to partner with a few select criminal defense law firms who are also serious about growing and making money…
And use my skills in criminal defense SEO to help them dominate their niche and become the big fish in their space.
Let me ask you something:
Did you get into business to float along and be just another firm among the hundreds of others?
Or do you want to be the “go-to” name that someone thinks of whenever they need a criminal defense attorney in your area?
If it’s the latter, I want to work with you.
So here’s my offer.
Over the last 10 years I’ve spent an absolutely obscene amount of time and effort mastering the craft of copywriting, sales, SEO, Google Ads, and online marketing.
These skills combined allow me to put together a sales funnel for your firm so dialed in that it will bring in new matters on demand and grow month over month.
I am so sure of this that I will implement all of this for your firm to help you grow on a pure performance basis.
Meaning only pay for the results I actually generate you.

Why SEO for Criminal Defense Lawyers Matters
The field of criminal defense law is highly competitive, with potential clients frequently seeking reliable and local legal representation online.
Implementing effective SEO for criminal defense firms ensures your practice is visible at the top of search engine results pages (SERPs) where it matters most.
Without a comprehensive SEO strategy, your criminal defense law firm could lose prospective clients to competitors who rank higher in online searches.
This lack of visibility results in missed opportunities, reduced client engagement, and difficulty maintaining a strong presence in your local market.
Criminal defense firms that neglect SEO often face challenges like poor rankings on search engine results pages, limiting their ability to attract new clients actively searching for legal services.
Low visibility in local search results makes it harder for prospective clients in your area to find you, while failing to leverage crucial criminal defense-related keywords diminishes your ability to target the right audience effectively.
On top of that, a lack of positive online reviews and an insufficient presence in respected legal directories can harm your firm’s credibility and deter potential clients, as well as keep you from appearing on page 1 of Google.
Our criminal defense SEO services are designed to overcome these obstacles, get you to the top of search engine results, and ensure potential clients find you when they need a criminal defense lawyer.
Using proven strategies, we ensure your firm is gets in front of the right audience, compelling them to choose your services over competitors, and securing your position as the go-to criminal defense law firm.

Keyword Research and Optimization
Effective keyword research forms the foundation of a successful SEO strategy.

These keywords are strategically integrated across your website in headings, meta titles, and content to improve search engine rankings and attract organic traffic.
On-page SEO involves optimizing individual pages on your website to improve their rankings and relevance. We craft compelling meta titles and ensure headings and content are aligned with your target keywords. In addition, we refine your website’s structure, improve internal linking, and create service pages that resonate with both search engines and users. We also use a proven calculation to ensure that your pages are more optimized than all your competitors for your target keywords, increasing your relevance and ranking you higher.

My Quality Assurance to You
A major problem with the online marketing industry is that most agencies just outsource all the work to VAs and low paid workers from second and third world countries who have no idea about what it takes to succeed with a marketing campaign (especially in a niche as competitive as law).
This is why you hear of so many horror stories of businesses paying thousands, if not tens of thousands of dollars and not seeing any results.
Most agency owners are not marketers themselves, they are just trying to make as much money as possible.
While I am also here to make money, I am a marketer and know exactly how to get results and produce the absolute highest quality of work.
When you work with Dominate Marketing, I can assure you that your campaign will not be outsourced to some $5 an hour VA.
You will be dealing with me directly, and if anyone else on my team is doing any part of the work, they will have been heavily vetted by myself for quality, and I will be overseeing their work closely.
I give you my word that high quality work is my top priority and I will do whatever it takes to get you results.
FAQs About SEO for Criminal Defense Law Firms
What is SEO for criminal defense lawyers?

SEO helps attract potential clients who are actively searching for criminal lawyers and contributes to the overall growth of the practice by increasing traffic and inquiries.
Why is local SEO important for criminal defense law firms?
Local SEO is crucial for criminal defense attorney marketing because it connects them with clients searching for legal services in their specific area. The majority of people searching for a criminal lawyer look for a lawyer “near them”. By appearing prominently in local search results, your firm is more likely to attract nearby clients who value convenience and locality. Local SEO also leverages tools like Google Business Profile and locally targeted keywords, ensuring your firm stands out to the most relevant searches and drives meaningful client interactions.
How long does it take to see results from SEO?
SEO is a long-term investment that requires consistent effort and optimization. While some improvements, such as better search rankings for specific keywords, can be observed within a few months, significant results like increased traffic and client conversions typically take 9 to 12 months. How long exactly it will take is highly dependent on a number of factors including how established your website already is, how competitive your target area is and which specific type of criminal defense clients you want.
What keywords should criminal defense firms target with search engine optimization?

Examples include “criminal defense attorney,” “DUI lawyer,” “defense attorney near me,” and “criminal law firm in [location]” These keywords help attract clients who are actively searching for legal representation and ensure the firm’s website aligns with their search intent.

Can online reviews impact criminal defense SEO?
Absolutely. Positive online reviews improve your firm’s credibility and influence prospective clients. Search engines view reviews as a signal of trust and relevance, which can increase your local SEO rankings.

Can I do SEO for my criminal defense practice on my own?
While it is possible to implement SEO practices independently, achieving significant results often requires professional expertise along with a number of SEO tools. SEO involves a combination of technical, content, and strategic efforts that are best handled by an experienced professional. The other thing to consider is that it can take months to see the results of what you did, meaning you can quite literally spend years experimenting to find out if what you did worked. Hiring someone who knows what they are doing will shortcut this entire process and get you results much quicker.
