How to read these

Numbers from the actual dashboards.

Every case below is an active law-firm client. Every screenshot is the firm’s own analytics dashboard exported directly. Nothing is staged, recreated, or compiled from typical-case benchmarks.

Names are withheld so competitors cannot reverse-engineer each firm’s content set. The numbers are still identifiable to the firms themselves if they look closely at their own data, but the practice areas, geographies, and detail callouts are kept generic enough that the case studies remain anonymous in public.

The work is the same across every client. The only difference is which dashboard the dividend shows up on.

What ties them together

Same playbook, different dashboard.

Different surface, same disciplines. Each case study above is one slice of the same six-layer law-firm SEO methodology applied to one engagement’s primary constraint.

Service breakdown
01

YMYL-grade content from someone with legal training

Statute citations, case-law references, jurisdictional nuance, and the precision a YMYL quality rater expects. Generic SEO copy gets buried below it.

02

Cluster strategy, not page-by-page

Each practice area as a pillar plus 8 to 15 supporting pages. Internal linking authored to direct authority into the pillar. Compounds across months and across engines.

03

E-E-A-T author signals on every page

Attorney author bios, bar admission, jurisdictional scope, review pathway. Attorney and LegalService schema connecting every page to a credentialed person.

04

Local signals if the firm is geo-anchored

Google Business Profile rebuild, citation cleanup, review acquisition workflow, neighborhood-level content. The local pack moves on a weekly cadence when the signals align.

05

AI search formatting and Bing parity

Direct-answer formatting, named lists, schema validated against Bing, IndexNow integration, llms.txt. The same patterns earn rich SERP features and AI citations.

06

Link earning from legal-trust sources

State and county bar listings, legal directories Google actually trusts, HARO and qwoted commentary, earned editorial features. No PBNs, no anchor manipulation.

FAQ

About these case studies.

Why withhold every client name?
Every firm here is in a competitive legal market. Publishing the name and the dashboard together would hand competitors a roadmap to reverse-engineer the page set, the schema, and the link plan. Names off the public record, numbers on, is the only honest middle path.
Are these all the same client or different firms?
Different firms, different practice areas, different US geographies. Each case study is a single client. A handful are from the same metro area, but no two cases share the same firm. The methodology overlaps; the engagements do not.
Why no case study for the firm I am most curious about?
Five cases are public. Several other engagements are held in reserve for prospective-client conversations because the firms have not consented to dashboards on a public page. If you are weighing a retainer, ask during the free audit and the relevant ones can be walked through in private.
What if my firm is brand new with no domain authority?
Brand-new domains can ship the same methodology but need 9 to 12 months before the YMYL dampening clears. The first quarter looks much flatter than these dashboards. Established domains compound faster because the trust baseline already exists.
How quickly should I expect first dashboard movement?
Local pack movement: 14 to 30 days. Technical and on-page lifts: 30 to 60 days. Practice-area ranking gains: 3 to 6 months. AI citations: first signals 30 to 60 days, volume around 90. The free audit gives a realistic timeline for your specific starting point.
