Beyond Twitter: Why Lawyers Are Expanding Their Social Media Presence

Social media has become a powerful tool for lawyers to connect with clients and other professionals. Social media is not just used by lawyers; it’s also useful for non-lawyers who work in corporate offices and want to stay connected with their colleagues.

The reason why people are using social media is because of its ability to personalize content, create news articles, and schedule appointments all at once—all without having to log into multiple accounts or apps! Here are some ways that lawyers have been using social media outside of Twitter:

Personalized Web Design

Personalized web design is a great way to make your website more accessible to your audience. If you have a legal practice that serves families, personalizing the site with images and content specific to each client is important. This also helps keep them engaged on the site, which can lead them back again and again for more information or questions about their case.

Personalized web design is a great way to make your website more useful for potential clients who are searching for answers about what kind of services you provide as well as what kind of experience they’ll have when working with you at law firm XYZ Corp., Inc., where we specialize in handling family law cases including divorce mediation through mediation services along with child custody mediation services.”

News

• News is a great way to stay up-to-date with your industry.
• News is a great way to keep in touch with your clients and colleagues.
• News is also a great way to keep in touch with friends and family as well, especially if they’re not on Twitter or Facebook but still want updates about what you’re doing or how things are going at work.

Business Development

Lawyers can use social media as a business development tool.

• Social media can be used to reach out to clients, particularly small businesses and large corporations that might not be familiar with your practice area.
• If you have a strong following on Twitter, Facebook, or LinkedIn, people may find you through those channels when they search for your name. This is especially true if they are looking for an attorney who offers services related to the type of business they’re interested in working with (for example: “I want an accountant who understands taxes”).

Research Tools

Websites that can help you find information about your legal question are:

• Lawyer Answer Finder — This website has a searchable database of attorney profiles, as well as other tools like contact information and social media links.
• FindLaw’s Legal Dictionary — This dictionary offers definitions for common legal terms, so you can easily understand what the word means when it comes to your case. It also provides links to related articles from other sites that might help answer your questions further down the road

Scheduling

Scheduling software is useful for scheduling conference calls and meetings. For example, it’s possible to create a calendar on your phone with all of the events that you want to schedule for a certain period. This can be done by using an app like Google Calendar or Apple’s Calendar app on iOS devices (or Outlook or Office 365).

If you want to use scheduling tools with a To-Do list instead of just a calendar, there are many options out there that allow users to jot down their tasks without having them pile up on their desks until they’re done (and then forgotten).

One such service is Things 3, which syncs across multiple platforms including Android phones and Macs; other popular options include Wunderlist & Trello Todo Lists: In addition to being able to add new lists easily using these apps’ built-in features (such as dragging items from one list into another), these services also offer storage space for archived files so if someone ever forgets about something important–like an email address where they need help getting connected–it won’t be lost forever!

People are using social media for professional purposes.

It’s not just social media that lawyers are using for professional purposes. Lawyers are also expanding their presence in online communities, such as LinkedIn and Facebook, which can help you connect with clients and stay informed about what’s happening in the legal field.

For example, a lawyer may post updates about cases she’s working on or upcoming events that she attends. If you’re looking for an attorney who is active on social media platforms like Twitter or Snapchat (for those under 18 years old), this is a great way to get more information about them without having them directly email you anything!

Conclusion

With the rise of social media, lawyers have been forced to adapt their business practices. Social media has enabled lawyers to reach out to clients and potential clients efficiently and effectively. Lawyers should be using social media as a tool for marketing themselves and for gathering leads for future representation.
