1. Differentiation Tactics in Competitive Legal Markets With Ron Latz Ken Hardison 32:54

Welcome to episode 293 of Grow Your Law Firm, hosted by Ken Hardison. In this episode, Ken sits down with Ron Latz, the Founder of LegalFenix, a legal marketing consultancy offering fractional CMO services to growth-minded law firms. With over 15 years of experience in legal marketing, Ron has helped hundreds of firms strengthen their strategy, hold vendors accountable, and create consistent growth. He shares how smaller law firms can stand out in saturated markets, avoid common SEO pitfalls, and use AI strategically without losing authenticity or trust.     What you’ll learn about in this episode:  

  1. AI is reshaping legal marketing strategy – Law firms must learn how AI-driven search and content affects visibility – Firms that avoid AI tools risk falling behind in efficiency and reach
  2. Smaller firms can still compete with giants – Community involvement and personalized branding are powerful differentiators – Grassroots efforts like newsletters, and speaking gigs help smaller firms build trust
  3. Differentiation starts with messaging – Firms must clarify why a prospect should hire them instead of a competitor – Storytelling, clear positioning, and niche services help break through the noise
  4. AI is a tool- use it wisely – AI is great for content outlines and repurposing – but human oversight is essential – Abuse of AI can hurt search rankings and brand credibility
  5. Authenticity wins on social media – Static, outsourced posts often fall flat—audiences prefer real voices and stories – Ghostwriters can help lawyers find and refine their authentic tone for better impact
