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.

Would certainly recommend Rachel and her team for review and revamp of online profiles. Highly professional and a pleasure to work with.

Geoff KempSpecialist IT Project Management, G Kemp Ltd

I was recomended Links2Leads service by a friend who had used the service to update her profile. My need was slightly greater as I had been employed by the same Company for 18 years and didn’t really have any profile to speak of. After an initial discussion I decided to opt for the “full writing service” as my understanding of how to actually write the profile was very limited and I didn’t want to limit any opportunity out there.

From the outset the service was excellent, I had an initial lengthy consultation of what I was trying to achieve with the profile which then led onto a detailed discussion about previous history etc. I wrote some pieces, but mostly it was written for me. The end result being a complete profile explaining in great detail my capabilities and work history, which incidentally can be downloaded into a formal CV, which I used to secure my current position of which I am now into by 2 weeks.

I am absolutely convinced that without the CV drawn down from the page I would not be in the position I am today.

The service and turnaround timescales has been superb, I would not hesitate to recommend Rachel and her team. Thank You

Generally as a newbie to the world of LinkedIn I never really knew how to make the most out of my profile...until we had a training session with Rachel. Rachel was knowledgeable, patient and explained the best way to promote the work we do at Rebmark and our own personalities through our profiles. Thank you for all your help Rachel.
