Make sure your online profile is working for you

28th September 2023 | Professional support , Business support

We are keen to ensure that our members make the most of the opportunity to update your details, promote your business and receive valuable news and updates from your professional body.

The Law Society has a statutory obligation to protect the public interest in relation to the legal profession and as part of carrying out that duty, our Public Communications team responds to upwards of 1,600 enquiries from members of the public every month!

Around 8,000 people use our online Find-a-solicitor tool to search for a Scottish solicitor each month. So in terms of marketing your business or promoting your personal professional profile, skills and services, it’s a pretty powerful tool.

You might have expanded to take on new areas of work or adopted a more bespoke approach for your business. Whatever your business development plans are, you can make our find a solicitor directory work for you by ensuring your details are up to date.

It means anyone using the online search or who gets in touch with us for help can find a solicitor that’s right for them – and our members don’t miss out on valuable opportunities to generate new business leads.

Another benefit is ensuring you get the information from us that’s relevant to you. As your professional body, we understand the many demands on our members’ time and are keen to ensure that we don’t add unnecessarily to your already bulging mailboxes so this helps ensure we can target our communications to meet your needs.

Make sure that your details are up to date – just click on the ‘Update details’ tab to check everything is up to date or make any corrections needed.
