Why lawyers retain this engagement

Citation density and authoritative-publisher coverage compound non-linearly. Authority is the engagement that builds that asset.

For lawyers specifically, the gap that this engagement closes is the Authority & Authorship signal — typically the lowest-scored of the eight signals across the Lawyers cohort. The trust signals that Lawyers need to demonstrate inside AI answers — admissions, professional accreditations (Law Society, accredited specialist), reported cases, published commentary, and verified client outcomes — are exactly the surface this engagement builds.

What you receive

The deliverable is earned editorial citations in AI-trusted publishers, byline programme, and Wikipedia-class entity work.

Everything is delivered against The Standard™, our published methodology, and executed by named credentialled practitioners — Practitioners, Specialists, and Fellows — registered through Certified™.

How the engagement works for lawyers

The Authority Programme is designed to integrate with the operational rhythm of a law firm. We schedule deep-work sessions around your busy periods, not in spite of them. The named senior practitioner is your single point of contact — there is no account-management overhead.

Common starting point

Most lawyers retain Authority Programme after running the AI Discovery Audit™ first. The Audit identifies whether this engagement is the right yield priority for your specific scorecard, and quantifies the expected lift.

What this engagement is not

This is not link-building, not generic SEO retainer work, and not a software subscription. Authority Programme is a structured, methodology-driven process. The deliverable is documented, the methodology is published - and you receive a re-auditable score you can compare over time.

"AI Discovery work is methodical. The firms that compound on it are the ones that retain authority programme-grade engagements, not the ones chasing tactics."

Pricing transparency

practitioner-level add-on. Pricing is set against scope, not seat-count or hours. You can see the published pricing on our Pricing page. Enterprise and multi-location work is scoped separately with a custom proposal.

Common questions

What does the Authority Programme cost for lawyers?

practitioner-level add-on. Scope is set after a 30-minute intake call. Pricing varies with practice scale and the number of law firm entities to be audited or remediated.

How long does the Authority Programme take?

Ongoing, with a three-month initial engagement. For lawyers, the calendar timeline is typically driven by your ability to provide named-principal interviews and supply existing brand assets; we move at the pace you can resource.

What do I receive at the end?

You receive earned editorial citations in AI-trusted publishers, byline programme, and Wikipedia-class entity work. For lawyers specifically, the deliverable also includes a vertical-comparable benchmark sourced from The Index™.

Why does this matter for lawyers specifically?

Citation density and authoritative-publisher coverage compound non-linearly. Authority is the engagement that builds that asset. For lawyers, the signal disproportionately under-built across the cohort is Authority & Authorship — and Authority Programme is the engagement that addresses it most directly.
