Filling the Digital Visibility Gap That Traditional PR Can't Close

Most law firms think they have digital visibility covered with traditional PR. They don’t. Here’s the critical gap that’s costing you clients every day—and how to fix it.

When a Fortune 500 company gets a DOJ subpoena, they don’t remember your Wall Street Journal quote from six months ago. They immediately Google “government investigations attorney” or ask ChatGPT “best white collar defense lawyer near me.”

If your firm doesn’t appear in those search results, you don’t exist.

Traditional PR builds brand awareness. But brand awareness doesn’t generate leads when prospects are ready to hire. That requires digital authority—the kind that only strategic digital PR can build.
