Law Firm Marketing Is Getting Weirder and More Expensive

Watch the YouTube version of this episode HERE

Tyson Mutrux breaks down a week of legal industry stories that law firm owners should actually pay attention to, from California's attempt to limit private equity influence over case decisions to some of the boldest law firm marketing campaigns happening across the country. He looks at what makes a campaign memorable, when attention helps a brand, and when clever marketing may not translate into the right cases.

He also covers a major Google Local Services Ads change that can make missed calls more expensive, a Florida attorney facing court scrutiny over a brief suspected of being AI-assisted, and the growing role of AI in pleading and motion drafting. Plus, Tyson touches on Temple football's law firm jersey patch, Morgan & Morgan's challenge to Florida's celebrity advertising rule, and a Google keyword fight between competing firms.
