Bylined Article Placement for Law Firms

In the world of legal marketing, few tactics build credibility like a well-placed bylined article.

Whether it’s a commentary in Law360, a practical guide in Corporate Counsel or a forward-looking piece in Legaltech News, contributed articles offer attorneys a high-impact way to showcase their expertise, shape the narrative and connect with target audiences — all on their own terms.

Turn Legal Insight Into Industry Influence

At Reputation Ink, we help law firms and attorneys do just that.

Our bylined article services are tailored specifically for legal professionals who want to elevate their profiles, build reputational capital and drive meaningful business development — without the unpredictability of live media interviews.

Why Bylined Articles Work for Lawyers

Control the message

Unlike interviews or podcasts, bylined articles allow attorneys to carefully shape their commentary — no surprises, no off-script detours.

Establish authority

Writing for respected publications builds third-party credibility and reinforces expertise in a way that firm blogs alone often can’t.

Reach decision-makers

The editors, general counsel and referral sources reading these outlets are often the same people who hire outside counsel.

Fuel other marketing efforts

These pieces become versatile marketing assets — featured on bios, repurposed in email campaigns, used in RFPs, and shared on LinkedIn.

Our Process

We know lawyers are busy. That’s why we’ve created an efficient, collaborative process that turns your ideas and insights into polished, publication-ready content, with as little time investment on your part as possible.

Here’s how we do it:

We help you identify compelling, timely topics that align with your practice area, client base and business goals — and that meet editorial standards for top-tier legal and business publications.

Our PR pros craft custom pitches that editors notice. We handle all outreach, leverage our media relationships and manage the back-and-forth to get your article accepted.

We ghostwrite the article in your voice, incorporating your insights, client examples (with approval), and preferred messaging — then work with you to finalize it quickly and accurately.

Once approved, we coordinate with the publication to get it live — then help you secure reprint rights and ensure maximum exposure across your firm’s channels.

A bylined article is just the beginning. We help you amplify it through social media, newsletters, thought leadership libraries and business development touchpoints.

Is This Right for You?

Our bylined article services are ideal for:

Law firm partners seeking to grow visibility in a niche practice area

Attorneys who want greater control over their public commentary

Marketing teams looking to increase ROI on thought leadership efforts
