The United States Supreme Court decision in the 1977 Bates v. State Bar of Arizona case upheld the right of lawyers to engage in attorney TV advertising. Since that time, television advertising has become an invaluable tool in marketing a law firm, especially in the personal injury field.

Television commercials are the most effective form of attorney advertising for a personal injury law firm. Unlike Yellow Pages ads, print media, and other passive forms of marketing, TV advertising actively reaches out to injury victims who are watching television in their hospital beds or living rooms while recovering from their accidents. Television commercials deliver a strong call to action to potential clients, prompting them to pick up the phone and call your personal injury law firm. TV commercials are such an effective form of attorney advertising because they target the demographic that is least likely to already have a lawyer, giving you the best chance of obtaining those potential cases.

However, many small injury law firms do not take advantage of the effectiveness of TV advertising because they believe they cannot afford to compete with the larger firms that have huge advertising budgets. This is a real concern, as there are now law offices with literally thousands of lawyers and staff members spread across the country. Personal injury attorneys in small firms also worry about the high costs of producing and running customs ads in their local TV markets.

Luckily, there is a way that your personal injury law firm can utilize high-quality television commercials as a part of your overall marketing plan without breaking your budget. The secret is group attorney advertising.
