Is legal advertising direct response or branding? It is both.


A brand is a name, symbol, design… in the mind of a consumer. Over

time the brand takes on A meaning that will distinguish it from the competition and in a time of need people respond in a specific way.


Pavlov's dog heard a Bell and started salivating. It is not that simple, the dog was conditioned. It was always the same Bell. Every time the dog heard the bell, he was given food, it was never withheld.

The Bell = Brand & Conditioning=Advertising.



Direct response advertising is exactly that. Advertising designed for the viewer to respond instantly.


Depending on the seriousness and or speed of the event that is causing the need for legal representation it may not be possible to respond immediately. There may be long-term hospitalizations, multiple family members involved, Health care experts more. Expecting an immediate response may be wishful thinking.
