Rep Ink consistently delivers thoughtful insights and resources that strengthen our visibility, enhance our reputation and align with our goals. Their efforts have had a direct, positive impact on our firm, and we deeply value the results of this partnership.”

“Reputation Ink has been an invaluable partner and a true force multiplier for me as the sole marketing and business development professional at a 52-lawyer litigation boutique. Their expertise, responsiveness and creativity have enabled our firm to earn consistent visibility among the audiences that matter most — despite my limited in-house resources.
From managing complex media outreach efforts and developing high-impact thought leadership campaigns to the down-in-the-weeds, everyday grind of social media management and attorney bio updates, Rep Ink continuously finds ways to amplify our successes and ensure our firm’s voice stands out in a competitive market.
Aside from this ability to function as a seamless in-house team, what also sets Rep Ink apart is their deep understanding of the unique challenges facing litigation boutiques. Their strategic guidance, proactive idea generation and seamless execution have helped our lawyers build impactful reputations and win trust with clients, peers and the press alike. Rep Ink operates as a true extension of my team — anticipating needs, exceeding expectations and making my job not just easier, but more rewarding.
I am continually impressed by their professionalism, dedication and the results they deliver. For any firm seeking a PR partner that brings both strategic vision and hands-on support, I cannot recommend Reputation Ink highly enough. They have been critical to our marketing success.”
— Nathan Smith, Director of Marketing and Business Development, Yetter Coleman LLP

They continue to evolve alongside us, adapting their approach as our firm and strategy have grown while maintaining the same personalized attention we received from day one.
“Rep Ink has been an invaluable partner in helping Lightfoot stay ahead in a highly competitive market.

We view Rep Ink not just as a PR agency, but as a strategic extension of our team — keeping us sharp, competitive and consistently positioned as leaders in litigation.”
—Paula McCauley, Director of Marketing and Business Development
“Reputation Ink is a valued partner for many of our core marketing needs, from content and social media to public relations and design. They are also astute advisors and strategists. We came to them after our previous agency did not meet expectations, particularly in accuracy, industry knowledge and responsiveness. Reputation Ink quickly gained the trust of our attorneys, and their team is well respected throughout the firm.”
— Tracy D’Ambrosi, Office Manager, Rogers Joseph O’Donnell, P.C.
“Reputation Ink is our trusted marketing and public relations partner. After struggling with the writing capabilities of other marketing agencies, we hired Reputation Ink in 2019 and have been incredibly pleased with their understanding of complex legal topics and writing skills.
“We value the team’s legal industry experience, extensive legal media contacts and ability to work directly with our attorneys to accomplish our goals. They’ve earned the trust of our most senior partners, who value Rep Ink’s guidance on a range of marketing areas, from social media to internal communications and public relations.”

“Reputation Ink provides keen insight, excellent advice and top-notch public relations work. Their forward-thinking mentality, combined with their accessibility and flexibility, makes working with them seamless and enjoyable.
The team is constantly trying to find ways to make their clients more visible and marketable to their target audience. Further, they continually work with their clients to determine how they can add as much value as possible to the company’s ever-evolving landscape.”
— Jessica M. Bughman, Practice Development Manager, Susman Godfrey L.L.P.
“Reputation Ink has a strong skill set in understanding what motivates our audiences to make decisions and how we should craft communication to address that. For example, the copy on our CivicPoint site conveyed a strategic message that was so relevant to a prospect’s needs that it prompted her to call us for an in-person meeting, and she later became a large client. That’s a tangible result.
Across multiple assignments — including two new websites, case studies and marketing collateral — the responsive staff has delivered well-written and strategic content on time and budget.”
— Eve Hutcherson, Director of Business Development, Frost Brown Todd

In all, Reputation Ink has done solid work with expanding our profile and visibility.”
— Tariq Hafeez, Co-CEO of LegalEase Solutions LLC
