TorHoerman Law (THL) had established itself as a reputable personal injury law firm, but its digital marketing efforts were not keeping pace with its operational growth.

The firm’s online presence failed to effectively capture and convert potential clients — creating a significant gap between their expertise and their digital performance.

This misalignment presented a critical obstacle to THL’s expansion goals, hindering their ability to compete effectively in both local and national markets.

How Legal Marketing Fails Survivors of Institutional Sexual Abuse & Assault

TorHoerman Law faced several critical challenges in their digital marketing efforts:

  • Low-Quality Traffic: Despite having decent website traffic, THL struggled to generate a high volume of quality leads. Much of their traffic was low-value, driven by blog topics with low user intent, indicating a disconnect between their content and potential clients’ needs.
  • Poor Conversion Optimization: THL’s website was not optimized for converting traffic into clients. The existing marketing and advertising strategy lacked a design and structure focused on high conversion rates.
  • Lack of Attribution Models: There was an absence of effective tracking and reporting mechanisms, crucial for understanding and improving the journey from website visitor to committed client.
  • Scaling Without Increasing Costs: THL needed to significantly increase brand awareness and case retention, both locally and nationally, without escalating operational costs. This required scaling the law firm’s reach and client base effectively while maintaining constant overhead.
