The 2025 Google Business Profile Report - Personal Injury Edition

See What #1 Firms Do Differently Than #10

Most people searching for a personal injury lawyer don’t start with your website. They start with Google. If your firm isn’t showing up in the top spots of the map pack, you might as well be invisible.

That’s why we analyzed 3,200 PI law firm Google Business Profiles across 20 major U.S. cities. We compared firms ranking #1 vs. #10 to uncover what actually separates the leaders from the rest.

Some of the results lined up exactly as expected: do the fundamentals better, and you’ll rank higher. But there were also a few surprises that challenge what most attorneys think about local SEO.

This report Covers:

  • The #1 mistake PI firms make with GBP categories
  • Why top firms average 40% more reviews
  • The UTM tracking error 48% of firms get wrong

How We Analyzed 3,200 Law Firm Profiles

Most “SEO advice” for law firms is recycled best guesses. This isn’t that. We built this study from the ground up using hard data from 3,200 Google Business Profiles across 20 U.S. cities.

Using Places Scout and Ahrefs, we tracked rankings for eight of the most competitive PI keywords, compared firms in Position #1 vs. Position #10, and analyzed over 150 different data points: everything from categories and reviews to links, UTMs, and technical site factors.

Instead of chasing theories, you can finally see what actually separates top-ranked personal injury firms from those stuck further down the map pack.
