Muller Brazil, a leading personal injury law firm, sought to expand its service offerings into new personal injury verticals, including automobile accidents and workers’ compensation. Historically reliant on traditional marketing methods such as print ads, direct mail, and referrals, Muller Brazil faced challenges in generating high-quality leads in a highly competitive legal landscape. To overcome this, the firm transitioned to digital marketing with a focus on Google Ads.

Project Objectives

  • Establish a Digital Presence: Build awareness and drive traffic to Muller Brazil’s new personal injury service areas.

  • Generate Qualified Leads: Drive inquiries from potential clients seeking legal representation for automobile accidents and workers’ compensation claims.

  • Optimize Cost-Per-Lead (CPL): Compete effectively in a high-CPC industry while maintaining profitability.

  • Position Muller Brazil as a Market Leader: Showcase the firm’s expertise and client success stories to build trust and credibility.

Challenges

  • Intense Competition: Personal injury law is one of the most competitive industries in paid search, with high CPCs for keywords like “car accident lawyer” and “workers’ comp attorney.”

  • Traditional Marketing Mindset: The firm had limited experience with paid ad strategies and lacked a robust online presence.

  • Audience Targeting: Reaching individuals actively searching for legal help requires precise targeting and messaging.

  • Limited Brand Awareness in New Verticals: The firm was not yet established in the automobile accident and workers’ compensation niches.

Approach

In-Depth Keyword Research and Strategy

  • Conducted comprehensive research to identify high-intent keywords such as:

    • Automobile Accidents: "car accident lawyer," "auto accident attorney near me," "hit and run legal help."

    • Workers’ Compensation: "workers’ comp lawyer," "workplace injury attorney," "workers’ compensation legal assistance."

  • Created segmented campaigns for each vertical, ensuring keywords and ad copy aligned with user intent.

  • Built a negative keyword list to exclude irrelevant searches (i.e., “DIY legal advice”, “free legal aid”, etc.).

Geo-Targeting and Demographic Refinement

  • Targeted service areas with high accident and workplace injury rates, focusing on Muller Brazil’s strongest markets.

  • Refined audience targeting to include users aged 25–60, who are more likely to seek legal representation.

Compelling Ad Copy and Extensions

  • Designed ad copy highlighting the firm’s expertise, urgency, and no-fee-unless-you-win policy:

    • Automobile Accidents Ad Example:

      • Headline: "Injured in a Car Accident? Get Legal Help Now."

      • Description: "No upfront costs. Fight for the compensation you deserve with Muller Brazil. Free case reviews available."

    • Workers’ Compensation Ad Example:

      • Headline: "Denied Workers’ Comp? We Can Help."

      • Description: "Protect your rights and secure your benefits. Call today for a free consultation."

  • Leveraged ad extensions, including site links (e.g., "Schedule a Consultation," "Client Testimonials") and call extensions for immediate inquiries.

Landing Page Optimization

  • Developed dedicated landing pages for each practice area, optimized for conversion:

    • Automobile Accidents Landing Page: Included case studies of successful settlements, a list of covered accident types, and a clear CTA: “Request Your Free Case Review.”

    • Workers’ Compensation Landing Page: Featured client testimonials, an FAQ section, and a form to submit workplace injury details.

  • Incorporated mobile-friendly designs to capture users searching on smartphones.

Bid Strategy and Budget Allocation

  • Implemented a Target CPA (Cost-Per-Acquisition) bid strategy to maximize lead volume while maintaining budget efficiency.

  • Allocated budgets proportionally to each vertical based on keyword performance and lead potential.

Continuous A/B Testing and Optimization

  • Tested variations of ad headlines, descriptions, and CTAs to identify top-performing elements.

  • Monitored campaign performance daily, adjusting bids and pausing underperforming keywords.

Within three months of launching the Google Ads campaigns, Muller Brazil achieved remarkable success in establishing its presence in the new personal injury verticals.
