GEO Strategy

Get Cited When AI Recommends Lawyers

40% of people now use AI assistants to find services. When someone asks ChatGPT "Who's the best personal injury lawyer in Chicago?" - will your firm be in the answer? That's what GEO solves.

The Shift

SEO Is No Longer Enough

For 20 years, ranking on Google was the goal. Now, 40% of searches involve AI - and that number is growing monthly. People ask ChatGPT for lawyer recommendations and trust the answers.

GEO (Generative Engine Optimization) is the new discipline of getting your firm cited in AI-generated responses. It's not about ranking - it's about being the source AI systems reference.

FAQ

Common Questions About GEO

Everything you need to know about Generative Engine Optimization.

GEO is the practice of optimizing your digital presence to appear in AI-generated responses. When someone asks ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity, or Google's AI Overview for a lawyer recommendation, GEO determines whether your firm gets cited. It's different from traditional SEO, which focuses on ranking in search engine results pages. GEO focuses on being the source AI systems reference when answering questions.
SEO optimizes for search engine rankings (Google's blue links). GEO optimizes for AI citations. While there's overlap - both value authoritative content and good technical foundations - they differ significantly. SEO cares about keywords and backlinks. GEO cares about entity clarity, comprehensive answers, and being perceived as a citable authority. You need both: SEO for traditional search, GEO for the 40% of searches now involving AI.
GEO results typically begin appearing within 30-60 days, with significant improvement over 3-6 months. Unlike SEO, which can take 6-12 months, AI systems update their knowledge bases more frequently. However, GEO requires ongoing work - AI systems constantly evolve, and your competitors are starting to optimize too.
No one can guarantee specific AI citations - these systems are proprietary and constantly changing. What we guarantee is implementing best practices that significantly increase your likelihood of being cited. We track citation frequency and optimize continuously. Most firms see substantial improvement in AI visibility within 90 days.
We use a combination of manual testing and monitoring tools. We regularly query AI systems with variations of questions potential clients ask ('best personal injury lawyer in [city]', 'who should I hire for [practice area]', etc.) and track how your firm appears. Monthly reports show citation frequency, context, and sentiment across platforms.
