About the guide
About Local SEO Lessons from Home Services
A practical guide for criminal defense lawyers who want to understand local search by comparing it with how home service businesses win urgent, nearby searches, written in plain language.
What we cover
Local SEO Lessons from Home Services covers the urgent-search side of marketing a defense practice: Google profile types, service areas, county and courthouse pages, phone answering, reviews, Local Services Ads and seasonal planning. Each guide takes a habit from home service businesses, explains what fits a criminal defense firm, and ends with steps a firm can take itself.
How these guides are researched
We start from primary sources: Google Business Profile guidelines and help pages, Google’s spam policies and Local Services Ads documentation, and the ABA Model Rules and opinions on lawyer advertising and confidentiality. We add what we see in audits of real defense firm profiles, without naming clients. We don’t publish statistics we can’t source.
