Law firms of every size are feeling the shift in how clients find and choose their lawyers.
HubSpot reports that most marketers see social media as effective for growth, yet awareness alone is no longer enough. Clioās 2025 Legal Trends Reports reveal that both solo and mid-sized firms are seeing the same pattern. Referrals and reputation still matter, but clients now search online, compare reviews, and expect fast responses.
Smaller firms struggle with limited resources to manage marketing across channels, while mid-sized firms are balancing expansion with efficiency. Both groups are investing more in websites, search visibility, and client intake technology to bridge the gap between being found and being hired. Firms using tools like online forms and e-signatures are seeing higher revenue and faster conversions.
It shows how much marketing and client experience now work hand in hand. When potential clients start their search online, every click and interaction counts.
