01
The problem
Legal services are one of the most competitive and strictly evaluated niches in Google (YMYL). The site had no expertise signals — no attorney profiles, no verified cases — and competitors outranked the firm in Google Maps.

02
What I did
- Landing page structure by practice area and industry
- E-E-A-T signals: court decisions, certificates, client reviews
- Schema.org LegalService, Attorney and FAQ markup
- Google Business Profile in the Maps TOP-3
- Practice-area structure (tax, arbitration, M&A, business protection)
- Published real court decisions and reviews by recognised experts
- Work with reviews and the Google Business Profile
- Mobile consultation booking without unnecessary form fields
-

The result
- Consultation requests grew from 35 to 190 per month (+442%)
- Acquisition cost for retainer clients dropped by 64%
- Stable TOP-3 in Google Maps for all key local queries
Key insight
Eugene Pakharenko
In YMYL topics Google ranks trust. Real court decisions, attorney profiles and reviews delivered more than any keyword-driven copy.
