About Us

We Don't Just Talk AI. We Implement It.

While other agencies are still writing blog posts about AI possibilities, we're building working systems that help law firms capture leads, answer calls, and get found in AI search results.

Our Story

Two Decades of Legal Marketing Expertise

Legal Search Marketing was founded by Christopher Costa, who has spent over two decades doing legal marketing—going back to the early days when Yahoo was somehow much bigger than Google!

Throughout his career, Christopher has worked directly with lawyers, worked inside law firms, and spent years mastering the art and science of SEO and digital marketing. He's seen every evolution in legal marketing—from Yellow Pages to Google Ads to the rise of content marketing.

Now, Christopher has added another dimension to his expertise: AI and advanced programming. With top-level coding skills, he builds the AI systems that power modern law firm marketing—not just strategizing, but actually implementing.

This unique combination of legal marketing experience and technical AI expertise is what sets Legal Search Marketing apart.

Our Approach

How We Work

Four principles guide everything we build for law firms.

Implementation Over Theory

We don't write white papers about AI possibilities. We build working systems that generate real results for law firms today.

Legal Industry Expertise

We understand bar rules, ethics requirements, and compliance constraints. Your AI solutions will be built with legal best practices in mind.

Measurable ROI Focus

Every solution we build is tied to metrics that matter: leads generated, calls answered, clients signed. No vanity metrics.
