When someone is looking for a bankruptcy attorney, they honestly may not even know if they want to move forward yet. There’s a stigma around bankruptcy, so your message to them matters. You need to make sure you’re putting them at ease, answering their questions, and providing hope in what may be a desperate situation.
Above the Bar Marketing specializes in digital marketing for bankruptcy attorneys. We understand the unique mindset of potential clients—people searching for financial relief, worried about losing their homes, and afraid of what the future holds. Our targeted strategies help position your firm as a trusted source of guidance, ensuring that those in need can find you, trust you, and take the next step.
When it comes to consumer bankruptcy, one of your potential clients’ biggest barriers may be shame. Potential clients may even view it as a failure. It’s our job to turn that negative and unsure thinking into an understanding of bankruptcy as a whole. We want potential clients to know that it’s a powerful tool that gives you your power back instead of taking it away.
The way you talk about bankruptcy on your website, in your ads, and in your consultations can make all the difference in whether someone reaches out. We know how to use digital solutions to do just that in exactly the geographic area you want to target.
Whether you want to focus on families and couples dealing with financial issues or want to position yourself as an authority in commercial bankruptcy, we will help you attract clients who directly need your services. We can even focus on specific keywords like Chapter 7, chapter 13, debt relief, and more.
Bankruptcy attorneys aren’t just competing with other attorneys. You’re facing online debt relief and DIY options, as well as the overall “I can get out of it myself” attitude. Your value proposition as an attorney should be extremely clear and should be said in a way that your clients can understand. How can you do this?
You need to reframe bankruptcy as a smart, fresh start, not a last resort. By emphasizing financial empowerment, long-term relief, and your real success stories, your firm can attract more clients who need help but are hesitant to take the first step.
What is someone in your potential client’s position dealing with? They are likely being harassed by creditors, facing losing a home, or worse. You want to make sure your website clearly answers their questions. This will show them that you know what they’re going through and you know how to get out of it.
In addition, potential clients in financial situations are distressed, and could be distrustful of attorneys and typical marketing approaches. To build trust, your website needs to be compassionate, show testimonials of real people who have used you, have educational content, and more. Your website should make potential clients feel safe, supported, and encouraged to reach out.
A bankruptcy client isn’t just looking for a lawyer—they’re looking for hope, relief, and reassurance. But if potential clients can’t find you, they won’t get the help they need. Our marketing strategies ensure that your firm reaches those who need you most by supplying you with well-rounded digital marketing strategies.
