Robert Maranto
Buffalo, NY Injury Lawyer
Overview
It’s not easy being a personal injury attorney today. Every month, new firms open their doors. Big advertisers dominate every screen, billboard, and search result. The competition is fierce, and the rules for getting found online seem to change overnight.
That’s exactly where Andrews, Bernstein, Maranto PLLC once stood — a trusted team of trial lawyers with a strong record in the courtroom, but an online presence that didn’t match their reputation. They knew people were searching for help after serious injuries, but too many were finding other firms first. What they wanted was steady growth — more qualified calls, more strong cases, and more time to do what they do best: fight for injured people and help them move forward with confidence.
Before partnering with Accelerate Now, Andrews, Bernstein, and Maranto struggled to be found online. Once their new website and SEO program went live, the shift was immediate. The firm surged to the top of search results for personal injury and car accident cases in Buffalo—outpacing larger competitors. With a content-rich site, professionally produced videos, and a steady stream of qualified leads, the firm unlocked a new channel of growth. Today, Andrews, Bernstein, and Maranto are no longer invisible online—they’re a top choice for injury victims across Western New York.
A Frustrating Start
A few years ago, a New York personal injury law firm felt invisible online. Senior Trial Lawyer Robert Maranto was frustrated for three big reasons.
First, their website didn’t reflect the quality of the legal work they were doing for their clients. Second, their name only showed up on Google if someone searched for them directly. But the biggest issue?
“When I searched for terms like ‘personal injury lawyer Buffalo NY’ or ‘Buffalo car accident lawyer,’ I kept seeing firms that weren’t the best showing up first,” Robert said. “We were nowhere.”
He decided to take action.
The First Attempt Failed
Robert turned to a local phone book company he had done business with for years. They offered a new website with a high price tag, and while he was hesitant, he gave them a shot.
It didn’t go well.
Robert had to work with three different designers due to constant staff turnover. Each time, he had to re-explain the firm’s goals and priorities. When the site finally launched, it was filled with errors and performed poorly. Support was slow. Simple updates took multiple emails. And worst of all, the site still didn’t rank on Google.
“We ended up right back where we started,” Robert said. “Only now with more wasted time and money.”
Searching for Real Help
Determined not to settle, Robert interviewed five law firm marketing companies. He asked each one tough questions about how they planned to get top Google rankings and what kind of results they had delivered for other lawyers.
Most said the same thing—“It’s too competitive in your area. We can’t guarantee you’ll get on page one.”
That wasn’t good enough.
Then he met Shawn Grant at Accelerate Now.
The Plan Google Wants
At their first meeting, Robert laid everything on the table—his past frustrations, what the firm stood for, and what he hoped to achieve online.
Shawn didn’t make excuses. Instead, he walked Robert through exactly what Google wanted to see: high-quality educational content, clear site structure, and a steady stream of useful resources for visitors.
“If we do what Google wants,” Shawn said, “they’ll reward you with rankings and you’ll help more people. But if we ignore what Google asks for, we’ll be stuck.”
That message hit home.
What Accelerate Now Delivered
Robert signed on with Accelerate Now for a full SEO program that included:
- A brand-new, mobile-optimized, content-rich website
- Unlimited HD educational videos
- Legal practice area eBooks and email nurturing campaigns
- Ongoing blogging and content updates
- Live chat setup and management
- Social media marketing
- Detailed ROI reporting
Shawn made a bold promise: “If you don’t see results in 3 to 6 months, you should fire us.”
And Then the Results Came Fast
Just three months into the program, things began to change.
“I cannot believe how quickly our results jumped,” Robert said. “In a couple of key categories, we’re now ranked number one in the local area.”
The firm saw exponential growth in online leads.
“We receive leads constantly from potential clients who find us through the website and our ads,” Robert said. “This is a part of our business that didn’t even exist before—and now it’s thriving.”
Today, the program delivers:
- 800+ calls per month
- AI sessions up 65% in 90 days
- 60+ leads per month
A Firm That Leads Online
“Accelerate Now took us from the sidelines to being one of the premier internet sites in Western New York,” Robert said. “We’re excited about what’s ahead, and we know we’ve joined with a strong team.”
He now recommends Accelerate Now to any attorney looking to turn things around.
“I’ll personally be the one who recommends them,” he said. “It’s been an incredible success.”

Why personal injury firms struggle online
Massive competition
Aggregators, marketplaces, and mega firms fill the first page.
New firms every week.
Recent grads and out of town brands add noise to your market.
Hard to keep up.
What worked last year often stalls. Google rewards consistent publishing and real authority.
Vendors that go quiet.
Many agencies promise growth, send a report, then disappear when results slow down.
Intake delays.
If you are not first to respond, the lead hires the next firm they find.
Thin websites
Slow pages, weak content, and poor linking do not earn trust or rankings.

Mistakes Personal Injury Lawyers Make
Here is a deeper look at the most common issues that stall growth
1. Treating the Website Like a Brochure
What it looks like:
A clean homepage with nice colors, a vague headline, and a few pages about your practice areas. Somewhere near the bottom, there’s a form. On mobile, it loads slowly. Nothing jumps out or pulls the visitor in. It’s not clear what to do next.
Why it hurts:
An injured person isn’t in research mode—they’re in decision mode. They’re nervous, probably in pain, and trying to figure out if you can help. If it takes more than a few seconds to find a phone number or understand what the firm does, they’re gone. Google also pays attention to page speed, mobile usability, and clarity. A “pretty” site that doesn’t convert is a silent leak in your intake funnel.
2. Publishing a Few Practice Pages, Then Stopping
What it looks like:
The site has pages for car accidents, truck crashes, maybe one for premises liability. And then... nothing. No updates. No new content. No movement.
Why it hurts:
Search engines favor momentum. People keep asking new questions, and Google keeps looking for fresh, detailed answers. When your publishing pace stalls, your competitors fill the gap. The more they post and the longer you stay quiet, the further ahead they get. And once they’re ahead, it’s hard—and expensive—to catch up.
3. Copying the Same Content Across Cities
What it looks like:
Ten pages about ten cities. Each one says the same thing, just with a different location swapped in.
Why it hurts:
Readers see through it. Search engines do too. There’s no local detail, no courthouse info, no neighborhood feel. When a hurt person clicks on a page and sees copy-and-paste fluff, they click the back button. And Google takes that bounce as a sign the page isn’t helpful. That tanks your rankings and your credibility.
4. Avoiding Video Because It Feels Hard
What it looks like:
A wall of text and maybe a stiff headshot taken five years ago.
Why it hurts:
People don’t hire law firms—they hire people. And people trust faces, voices, tone. Video lets potential clients feel like they’ve already met you. It lowers fear and raises confidence. Without it, your firm feels distant. The first impression goes to the firm that shows up on screen and speaks clearly to the problem the viewer is trying to solve.
5. Measuring Traffic Instead of Signed Cases
What it looks like:
A spreadsheet full of graphs—lots of sessions, clicks, impressions—but no idea how many real leads or retained cases came from it.
Why it hurts:
Vanity metrics don’t pay the bills. It’s easy to get lost in noise while missing the signal. You could double your traffic and still lose money if those visitors aren’t converting. Good firms track calls, texts, forms, and signed retainers. Everything else is just activity.
6. Hiring a Vendor That Sets and Forgets
What it looks like:
A flashy kickoff, then quiet. You get reports, but little action. Pages aren’t being published, rankings don’t move, and you’re left guessing what’s actually being done.
Why it hurts:
Personal injury moves fast. Search trends shift. Competitors keep testing and publishing. If your vendor isn’t making changes, they’re falling behind—and so are you. A static strategy in a moving market doesn’t hold ground. It loses it.
7. Ignoring AI Platforms and Placement
What it looks like:
All content is written for traditional search. No attention to how it’s structured, how AI assistants read it, or how tools inside the firm could save time.
Why it hurts:
Clients aren’t just Googling anymore. They’re asking ChatGPT, Siri, and other AI tools for legal answers. If your content isn’t built in a way that those tools can understand and repeat, you vanish from the conversation. Internally, tasks that could take minutes with AI end up eating hours. That wasted time should be spent with clients—not doing manual research or drafting the same things over and over.
