What is a good cost per signed case for personal injury?
A good cost per signed case is one that sits well below the fee you expect the case to earn. Set the target from the fee back. If a typical case brings a $10,000 fee and you want marketing at 20% of it or less, your ceiling is $2,000 per signed case. Track it by campaign, because the firm-wide average hides the campaigns that cost three times more.
What percentage of revenue should a law firm spend on marketing?
There is no single right percentage, because fee size differs so much by practice area. A better test is cost per signed case against the expected fee for that kind of matter. Set a ceiling for each practice area, then move budget toward the campaigns that sign cases under it.
Why do Meta and Google report more conversions than intake signs?
Meta and Google count a form fill or a call as a conversion. Intake then screens out duplicates, wrong practice areas and people who never sign. So platform numbers run well above signed cases. Judge campaigns on cost per signed case from your own intake records, not on the conversions the ad platform reports.
How do I connect intake data to ad spend?
Connect Pipedrive if your intake team logs leads there, and Flyweel matches signed cases to the Meta, Google or TikTok campaigns behind them. HubSpot and Salesforce are on the roadmap. If intake lives in another system, upload a CSV with the lead source, sign date and practice area. Flyweel does not connect to case management software.
Can I see cost per signed case by practice area?
Yes, if each practice area has its own campaigns or ad accounts, or a practice area field in your CRM or CSV. Flyweel then shows spend, signed cases and cost per signed case for each one. You can compare personal injury and immigration side by side, even though their fees look very different.
Does Flyweel fund case costs?
No. Flyweel funds ad spend only. Legal funding companies advance money for case costs, expert fees and medical records. Performance Capital pays for the ads that bring new cases in, which is a different part of the firm's cash. It is available to US firms only.
Is Flyweel free for law firms?
Yes. Flyweel is free to start, with no credit card required. The Starter plan includes AdGrid, the AI agent and reconciliation. If your firm puts $25k a month of ad spend on Flyweel cards, the platform costs $0, with unlimited ad accounts.
