Solicitor marketing in Mayo, for families who are not here.

A great deal of Mayo legal work involves somebody who does not live in Mayo. Estates after a bereavement, land being divided between siblings who emigrated, houses inherited by people in Dublin or Britain or further away.

Those clients cannot call into the office and have no current local knowledge. They search, they read, and they instruct a firm they have never met.

The remote client decides on your website

No family solicitor, no recommendation, no ability to meet three firms. What they can assess is whether the site explains the process, whether it looks like a firm that will keep them informed, and whether anybody replies.

Setting out plainly how an estate is administered, roughly how long it takes and what the firm will need from them does more to win that instruction than anything else available. Most Irish legal websites say almost nothing about it.

Probate work needs a different register

This client has been bereaved, is frequently one of several siblings who do not entirely agree, and is dealing with a legal process at the worst possible time.

Marketing that treats it as a transaction reads badly. Content that is calm, patient and practical is both the right tone and by some distance the most effective, and it is what somebody searches for at eleven at night after being appointed executor.

Land and title is the other half

Farm succession, transfers between generations, folios that were never brought up to date, rights of way nobody wrote down. Slow, valuable work that families defer for years.

A firm that explains where to start on it will hear from people who have been meaning to sort it out for a decade.

Three towns, three catchments

Castlebar, Ballina and Westport each serve their own area, and proximity decides most local searching. Ranking across the county is not realistic; owning your own town is.

The remote-client work is the exception, because for an executor in Boston proximity means nothing and the website means everything.
