Stuck in the Middle With You: Navigating Politics in Your Law Firm’s Content

By Dave Argentar | November 19, 2024 | 0
A fountain pen draws red scribbles over a black outline of a sword on white paper, symbolizing the phrase “the pen is mightier than the sword.”.

Personality makes for better content until it crosses into politics. The line isn’t always obvious, but crossing it quietly costs more than firms usually realize.

The Day the Robots Came for Me – And Why You Shouldn’t Look to Them for Legal Content Writing

By Dave Argentar | September 17, 2024 | 0
A man in a suit holding a coffee cup sits next to a humanoid robot holding a briefcase. Both are seated on white chairs against a gray background, with two empty chairs beside them.

Every content writer has wondered whether AI is coming for their job. The more useful question is: what can AI-generated content cost law firms in credibility?

I Didn’t See That Coming: Avoiding Cringeworthy Marketing Missteps

By Dave Argentar | April 10, 2024 | 0
Looking up at tall pine trees in a forest, their trunks stretching upward and branches forming a canopy of green leaves against a bright, clear sky. Sunlight filters through the foliage.

Every marketing mistake looks obvious in hindsight. The ones that actually go public are almost always preventable — they just needed one more set of eyes and a slightly slower process.

Connecting With Your Audience: Why Empathy Is Important in Content Writing

By Dave Argentar | June 1, 2023 | 0
A broken pencil, pencil shavings, and a pink eraser rest on an open spiral notebook with lined paper.

Clients don’t expect lawyers to lead with empathy, which is exactly why the ones who do stand out. Content that acknowledges what a client is going through earns more trust than any credential list.

Why Your Attorney Website Bio Should Be More Than a Glorified Resumé

By Dave Argentar | April 8, 2021 | 0
Five people standing in a row indoors, each holding a sheet of paper with a large question mark in front of their face, obscuring their identity. Large windows are visible in the background.

A credential list is not a bio. A prospective client reading your profile isn’t looking for your GPA — they’re deciding whether they trust you with their problem.

When They Go Low, You Go High: How Law Firms Should Respond (and Not Respond) to Negative Online Reviews

By Dave Argentar | July 27, 2020 | 0
A man in a white shirt and blue tie looks shocked and angry while staring at his phone, with his mouth open and hand raised, sitting in front of a laptop in an office setting.

A bad review stings. A bad response to a bad review is worse. The way a firm handles public criticism often says more about its culture than the original complaint ever could.

The Never-Ending Story: How to Give Your Old Content New Life

By Dave Argentar | July 2, 2020 | 0
A short, double-pointed yellow pencil lies next to a pile of wood shavings on a white background.

Your best content isn’t necessarily your newest. A well-written post from three years ago can still be doing heavy lifting today — if someone takes five minutes to update and republish it.

That’s the Fact, Jack: 5 Tips for Writing Blog Titles That Lead to New Clients

By Dave Argentar | June 16, 2020 | 0
An older man wearing a blue sweater and blue beanie smiles and waves at a crowd; people are gathered closely around him, some holding cameras and papers.

Your post can be the best thing you’ve ever written and still fail if the title doesn’t make someone click. A great headline isn’t a trick — it’s a promise the content actually keeps.

Stick the Landing: Crafting Calls to Action That Work

By Dave Argentar | May 29, 2020 | 0
A female gymnast in a red leotard performs a handstand on uneven bars in a brightly lit arena filled with a cheering crowd.

Great content without a clear next step is a missed conversion. A strong call to action doesn’t pressure the reader — it gives them an easy, obvious way to go further.

It’s Not You, It’s Them: Keeping Your Law Firm’s Blog Content Focused on Your Readers

By Dave Argentar | May 4, 2020 | 0
A woman and a man sit at a table with wine glasses, both appearing upset or frustrated. The woman rests her chin on her hand, while the man covers part of his face with his hand. Flowers are on the table.

Most law firm blogs focus on the wrong person: the writer, not the reader. This reframe turns forgettable content into something clients actually want to read.
