Criminal defence lawyers · Social media

Post what a family should know before they need you, and nothing that sounds like a pitch.

Social media for a criminal defence practice means sharing general information on procedure and rights on professional platforms, within the conduct rules for advocates. GullySales works on what is posted, who approves it and which platforms suit your audience.

Scope, fee, reporting and term are agreed in writing after we have read your brief and spoken to you.

What social media means

Social media is the ongoing posting your business does on platforms such as Instagram, Facebook and LinkedIn to stay visible to customers and prospects between purchases. GullySales plans a posting calendar, writes captions and designs the images so the page looks active and answers what a visitor would ask.

For criminal defence lawyers

Where it usually goes wrong, and what we would do.

  • “A post that boasts is a conduct risk”

    Posting a bail won or an acquittal turns a client's worst year into content. It can read as a claim and it exposes a confidential matter. Information about how procedure works carries less risk than any story about a case.

  • “LinkedIn reaches the business buyer, not the family”

    A finance head or director facing a complaint is on professional networks. A family at a police station is not scrolling there. Match the platform to the matter type rather than posting everywhere.

  • “Silence between crises is the normal pattern”

    A criminal practice is not something a follower thinks about until it is needed. Posts should be useful to save and share later, such as what to keep after a police notice, rather than chasing reaction.

  • “Comments and messages arrive from people in distress”

    A reader may describe their case in a public comment. The chamber needs a rule for moving that into a private call at once, and for never discussing a matter in public.

What we do

What we deliver for criminal defence lawyers.

Every deliverable, what it covers for you, and the result it is there to produce. Nothing here is an extra.

  1. A short list of subjects that may be posted

    Agreed with a partner after checking bar council rules: procedure, general rights, document checklists, never case results.

    Result: Anyone posting for the chamber has a written list to follow.

  2. A post template for explainers

    A plain layout carrying a procedural point, the court stage it relates to and a line that this is general information.

    Result: Each post reads the same way and carries the same disclaimer.

  3. A comment and message rule

    A written step for moving a public comment into a private call and for declining to discuss any matter online.

    Result: No client detail appears in a public thread.

  4. Profile set-up on the right platforms

    Name, description and contact details on professional platforms, with a plain bio and no claims.

    Result: A profile states who you are and how to reach the chamber.

  5. A partner approval step

    A short routine in which a partner reads each post before it goes out and keeps a record of what was published.

    Result: Nothing is posted that a partner has not read.

How the result is measured

  • Posts published
  • Engagement rate
  • Enquiries from social profiles

Recorded as a baseline before work starts, so every later report has an honest comparison.

How it works

How the social media work runs

The work itself, in order. How an engagement starts, from your brief to a written scope, is set out on our method page.

  1. 1

    Understand your audience and platforms

    We identify which platforms your specific buyers actually use and what kind of content they respond to.

  2. 2

    Audit current presence

    We review existing pages, past content performance and any gaps in consistency.

  3. 3

    Build the content calendar

    A plan is created, balancing genuine value with occasional direct offers.

  4. 4

    Implement and post

    Content is created and published consistently on the agreed schedule.

  5. 5

    Measure and optimise

    We track enquiries alongside engagement and adjust the content mix based on what actually performs.

Where this fits

Three pieces of sales work, in this order.

This work sits inside sales process design, at stage 0, foundation. The audit comes before it, and sales management keeps it running.

  1. Step 1

    Sales audit

    Find where deals are being lost and what to fix first.

    Start here if you cannot say where orders are lost.

  2. Step 2 · you are here

    Sales process design

    One written way to sell, from first enquiry to repeat order.

    Start here if every salesperson sells differently.

  3. Step 3

    Sales management

    A target, a review routine and someone who owns the number.

    Start here if the team has targets and no routine.

FAQ

Questions owners ask before they call.

Not here? More answers, or ask on WhatsApp.

Can we post about cases we have won?
We advise against it. A list of outcomes can read as a claim, and the matter belongs to the client. Ask your bar council before publishing anything about specific cases.
Which platform should a criminal lawyer use?
The one your buyer uses. Business owners facing complaints use professional networks; families in crisis search before they scroll. Start with one platform, post information that stays useful and add others only if you can keep them accurate.
What if someone asks for advice in a comment?
Reply that the chamber cannot discuss a matter in public and give the office number. Do not give legal advice on a thread. Move the conversation to a call, and note the enquiry in the private log.
How much does it cost?
There is no price list, because the work differs by business. The fee is scoped after we have read your brief and spoken to you, and put in writing before anything starts, split into our time, your media spend and production.
How long is the contract?
The term is agreed in writing after we have spoken, along with the fee and the reporting. It is never a default twelve months, and renewal is decided on the numbers against the baseline recorded at the start.
How soon will we see results?
It depends on the trade, the channel and what is already in place. After we have read your brief and spoken to you, we say what we would expect to move first and how it will be measured against the baseline. Nothing here is guaranteed.
Who will actually do the work?
The person you speak to before anything starts. We work from one office in Nagarbhavi, Bengaluru, with no account managers in between.
What do you need from us?
Your brief, and a conversation. After that, access to whatever this work touches, such as your website, your accounts or your enquiry record, and time with the people who handle your enquiries.
What if we are not happy with the work?
Tell us and the plan changes. Everything is reported against the baseline, so a number that is not moving is visible to both sides. The term is in your written scope, and the refund and cancellation policy sets out the rest.
