GEO forProfessional Services.

GEO guide for professional services firms. Learn how lawyers, consultants, and accountants can improve AI visibility.

01 — The problem

The four things that break the loop.

Every partner we talk to brings the same blockers. Name them first — then fix them.

01Challenge

Directories outrank firms

Aggregators and directories are cited ahead of the firms they list, so the referral lands somewhere else.

02Challenge

Credentials stay invisible

Bar admissions, certifications and case history sit in prose the engines cannot attribute to a named person.

03Challenge

Local and expertise intent split

'Best [profession] in [city]' and '[profession] for [situation]' need different pages; most firms ship one.

04Challenge

No page per practice area

Firms publish one services page covering everything, so no page is specific enough to be the answer to anything.
