Our Story

How SOM Was Born

Originally established in 2011, Solicitors Online Marketing is the brainchild of our Founder & CEO Kieran Cassidy. The goal was (and still is) simple: to help law firms grow using modern digital strategies.

At the time, however, we failed to understand that the law industry was deeply entrenched in outdated business development tactics. Also, lawyers – given how busy they are – can sometimes be late to the party.

(Sorry to any lawyers who are reading this, please don’t take legal action.)

Times have now changed. In particular, the legal industry has begun to embrace marketing with open arms. Whilst we still have a number of long-standing law firm clients from SOM in its original form, we officially re-opened SOM for business in 2023.

a new everything.

Generate a constant stream of new clients.
Equip firms with the tools to continue attracting (and retaining) business.
