ABOUT THE CLIENT

A criminal defense and military defense law firm

We restructured the law firm’s Google Ads account around high-intent searches, including Virginia criminal defense, military criminal defense, traffic defense, and branded terms. By separating campaigns by service and location, refining keyword intent, adding negative keywords, and reducing wasted spend, the campaign became significantly more efficient. From March to August 2026, conversions increased 62.7%, CTR improved 19.6%, and conversion rate increased 57.3%, while average CPC decreased 19.4% and cost per conversion dropped nearly 49%—turning Google Ads into a stronger, more efficient lead generation channel.

Challenge
Inefficient Ad Spend

The law firm’s Google Ads account was not efficiently targeting high-intent searches, resulting in wasted ad spend from irrelevant queries and a campaign structure that made it difficult to consistently reach the right potential clients.

Results
Improved Advertising Efficiency by nearly 49%

By focusing on the right searches and tightening the campaign structure, Google Ads became a stronger lead generation channel for the law firm.
