Fractional CMO Services
A Fractional CMO for Somerton Law Firms — Where Marketing Is Measured in Signed Cases
Plenty of firms pour money into marketing and just hope it works. We install the strategy, channels, and accountability that trace spend straight to signed cases — and keep every vendor accountable to real outcomes.
In Short
What does a fractional CMO do for a law firm?
A fractional CMO for a law firm brings senior marketing leadership part-time — taking the strategy, channels, brand, lead gen, and attribution off your plate. In place of a costly full-time CMO or a self-scoring vendor, the firm gets one executive who sets the plan, runs the vendors and budget, and answers for cost-per-case and ROI. And we get the firm found as search shifts to AI: classic SEO alongside AEO (answer engine optimization) and GEO (generative engine optimization) so the firm turns up in Google, AI overviews, and assistant answers alike.
- One accountable owner for strategy, budget, vendors, and results
- Measurement built on cost-per-case and return, not vanity numbers
- Coverage across SEO, AEO, and GEO as search goes AI-first
What Actually Signs Cases

Agencies stop at the click. We follow each step to the only number that matters — cost per signed case.
First touch
Where the client first finds you — tracked, not guessed.
Inquiry
Logged against the channel that drove it.
Screened
Intake confirms fit before anyone spends time.
Signed
The case is signed — and the cost to land it is known.
Compounding
Happy clients feed the next wave of cases.

Personal Injury · $14M revenue · high spend
Budget was flowing to several agencies with no clear read on which channels produced signed cases.
We unified tracking from first touch to signed case, scored every channel, cut the spend that wasn’t converting, and moved budget to the highest-ROI sources.
Cost per signed case dropped sharply while qualified volume climbed — after years of flying blind.
