Whether the solution is for you to offer more payment plans or different levels of representation, Richard Jacobs explores how to meet the needs of your clients without sacrificing your bottom line.
What changes are you seeing in your clients? What’s been working – or not working – for you? Share your thoughts with us by emailing support@speakeasymarketinginc.com.

About Richard Jacobs
My name is Richard Jacobs, and I've discovered quite a bit about the plight of solo practitioners and small, 2-5 attorney firms like yours these past 12 years.
I've come to understand the unique challenges in marketing ethically and effectively that attorneys face because I have:
- Helped over 180 attorneys author their own practice area book and become the 'implied expert' in their practice area
- Helped hundreds of attorneys successfully navigate Google's search algorithm changes, growing their websites from 2 potential clients calling a month to 4+ calls per DAY for some clients.
- Interviewed and promoted over 507 attorneys nationwide, in practice areas such as:
- DUI / DWI
- Family Law
- Criminal Defense
- Bankruptcy
- Auto Accidents
- Social Security Disability
- Slip & Falls (Premises Liability)
- Real Estate
- Estate Planning / Probate
- Wage and Hour Claims
- Expungements / Post Conviction Relief
Before you decide to invest in your marketing, it makes sense to first request your complimentary, custom, no obligation video website review.
