LinkedIn for the Legal Profession

Helping you to increase your professional visibility and produce a steady stream of new clients

LinkedIn is, without doubt, the most effective and respected social media platform for law firms and legal professionals. It has more than 610 million users across 200 countries and territories worldwide and 26 million users here in the UK, it’s easy to understand why. That’s a vast number of potential clients for your legal practice or barristers chambers.

LinkedIn is the best social media strategy for law firms and legal professionals over other forms of social media because it enables you to connect and collaborate with your peers, your existing and prospective clients, and build up a strategic referral network.

Whether a prospective client has connected with you and is following your Status Updates, or just finds you through search results, your LinkedIn profile or LinkedIn Company page is a vital advertisement for your business. Sometimes it’s the first introduction a client gets to your law firm’s unique values and expertise and the legal services you provide.

Martin ReynoldsHead of Company & Commercial Department at Barrett & Co Solicitors LLP

I have engaged two of Rachel's services to date, namely the LinkedIn profile writing service and a bespoke group training course that focused on using LinkedIn effectively. As a result of Rachel's professional help and guidance, I not only have a LinkedIn profile that I feel best represents what I can offer clients, but I have also gained a good understanding of how I can utilise LinkedIn to reach potential clients and a profitable network of industry connections. Rachel is skilled at explaining the benefits of using LinkedIn to its full potential, tailoring this information to the legal profession and helping to put in place time and cost effective LinkedIn marketing strategies that work.

David EatonDirector, SME Strategies

Rachel has in-depth knowledge and experience of LinkedIn which she shares with a passion to her clients. Rachel is able to see the bigger business picture and so help tailor LinkedIn to the particular needs of a business. I first went on a training session with Rachel which was great, then bought an individual session with her which was amazing. Rachel has now helped me tailor my use of LinkedIn to meet my specific objectives for three different businesses/ventures with which I am involved.

Rachel has also been very generous in helping with a charity project which is using LinkedIn and other social media. I recommend her wholeheartedly.

I attended a Links2Leads course run by Rachel in Farnborough. It was a really interesting and enjoyable course and really helped me learn how to use LinkedIn more effectively. As a result of the training I have re-connected with a number of contacts on LinkedIn, started writing blogs and am quoting on new work as a direct result. I would highly recommend the course to anyone wanting to use LinkedIn as an effective marketing and networking tool.
