What does the situation with Ukraine, Russia, and the US have to do with auto accidents? More than you might think: skyrocketing new and used car prices, gas prices, insurance premiums, auto part shortages, and higher medical insurance premiums.
In general, people are being squeezed for money from all directions, which could make them more likely to want to settle an auto accident case rather than litigate. The insurance companies might catch on to this, and only give lowball offers.
As an auto accident attorney in this climate, simply understanding how your clients are struggling can go a long way, helping you to stand out among your competitors. Provide your clients with resources and information to guide them through this time, and you’ll be in an even better position.

About Richard Jacobs
My name is Richard Jacobs, and I've discovered quite a bit about the plight of solo practitioners and small, 2-5 attorney firms like yours these past 12 years.
I've come to understand the unique challenges in marketing ethically and effectively that attorneys face because I have:
- Helped over 180 attorneys author their own practice area book and become the 'implied expert' in their practice area
- Helped hundreds of attorneys successfully navigate Google's search algorithm changes, growing their websites from 2 potential clients calling a month to 4+ calls per DAY for some clients.
- Interviewed and promoted over 507 attorneys nationwide, in practice areas such as:
- DUI / DWI
- Family Law
- Criminal Defense
- Bankruptcy
- Auto Accidents
- Social Security Disability
- Slip & Falls (Premises Liability)
- Real Estate
- Estate Planning / Probate
- Wage and Hour Claims
- Expungements / Post Conviction Relief
Before you decide to invest in your marketing, it makes sense to first request your complimentary, custom, no obligation video website review.
