SEO for Criminal Defense Attorneys

People searching for a criminal defense attorney are stressed, searching at odd hours, and calling the first firm that looks credible and answers the phone. We rank criminal defense and DWI firms for charge-specific searches and make sure the site converts that anxious visitor into a consultation.

Why criminal defense attorneys struggle to rank

  • Charge-specific searches (DWI, assault, drug possession, expunction) need dedicated, authoritative pages
  • Directory sites like Avvo and Justia take up half of page one
  • After-hours visitors leave if there is no instant way to reach the firm
