How The Bateman Law Firm More Than Doubled Their Leads and Took Over the DUI Market in Upstate South Carolina

A Nerve-Wracking Situation

In June of 2023, John Bateman was worried about the future of his law practice. He runs a law firm focused on DUI defense in Greensville, Spartanburg, and Clemson, South Carolina. John is one of the top trial attorneys in the state, but the leads he received from the internet didn’t reflect his results in the courtroom. He was barely getting 30 leads a month from his local provider – and the phones weren’t ringing.

“My biggest challenge with past internet marketing companies was staying a priority,” John said. “At first everything looks great. But after a few months, I always got pushed to the bottom of the list.”

He also feared what Google would do next. “They change algorithms all the time. It keeps you up at night when your leads depend on where you show up in search results.”

He needed stability that gave him real results. And he needed a marketing team that would make him a priority.

A Seamless Switch

That’s when John partnered with us at Accelerate Now.

The transition from his old vendor felt overwhelming at first. “There were so many pieces—social media, Google Ads, the phone system, everything had to link up. If one thing failed, it could’ve caused real damage.”

But the process was easier than expected. And it paid off fast.

Built to Perform

We built John a brand-new website that was tailored to his firm. The site came fully loaded with on-site and off-site SEO to help Google recognize and rank his content.

We also delivered unlimited content creation. Our team created over 70 pages of educational content plus blog posts, all targeting the most important DUI defense topics in his area.

To help build trust with potential clients and website visitors, our video production team came on site and filmed 50 cinematic educational videos with John and his staff. Since we first came, we’ve now shot over 100 videos together. John’s website now features a growing library of helpful, professional videos that give potential clients real answers fast.

Massive Visibility and Lead Growth

In just one year, John’s internet leads jumped from 30 to 80 per month.

Today, the Bateman Law Firm ranks number one on Google for all three of its office locations. John has taken the lion’s share of the DUI business across Greensville, Spartanburg, Clemson, and the surrounding towns.

“The phones are ringing. People are finding us. People are retaining us,” John said. “That’s what matters. I can’t impress someone with what I do until they call. Accelerate Now gets them to call.”

Confidence in the Future

John no longer stays up at night wondering what Google will do. He knows we are staying ahead of every algorithm change and are prepared to make any change necessary—without added cost.

“They’re super responsive. That’s just not something I’ve found with other companies.”

The Right Partner Makes All the Difference

“A lot of my colleagues are at the top of their market and they’re some of the best of the best when it comes to DUI defense attorneys, and they’re with Accelerate Now,” John said.

If you’re a DUI defense attorney and you feel like you’re stuck with a marketing company that’s lost interest, there is another way.
