The 8%
loophole

AI has taken over legal search, except where it counts most.

AI Overviews now appear on 78% of legal searches. Add “near me” and that drops to 8%. Those are the people ready to hire, and Google still sends them straight to the map pack. Megan Stubblebine will show you how to win that spot, and what’s been quietly pushing firms out of it.

What you’ll walk away with

  • The signal that matters most for the map pack right now
  • Why your reviews are disappearing, and what to do instead
  • A 7-day plan you can start before the session ends

Sound familiar?

  • Your review count has stalled even though you keep asking
  • The playbook that got you to 200+ reviews stopped working
  • You keep hearing AI is coming for your leads and you’re not sure what to do about it
  • You’re solo with no time to manage this, or you’re juggling profiles for more than one location

Google changed how reviews work this spring

Everyone’s watching AI. The thing actually costing firms right now is something else.

Google changed how it handles reviews and didn’t announce it. Firms with 200 or more are watching their count flatline even as new ones come in. Nothing in your process changed, the rules did.

New reviews keep coming in. The count stops moving.

What Megan covers live

Five signals decide who wins the map pack

You’re probably working on most of them already. Megan ranks all five live and shows you which one actually moves the needle right now.

Six things firms still do that get reviews removed

Most of these have been standard advice for years. Megan names all six, and the one ask that replaces them.

If your review process hasn’t changed in a while, that’s most firms. None of this was announced.

Leave with a 7-day plan

One step a day, and you can start the first one before the session ends. You’ll have it written down, so you can run it yourself or hand it to whoever manages your marketing.

Bring your phone. You’ll run a live “near me” search during the session and see exactly who’s winning in your market, and why.

Rather hand it off? Megan will also preview the done-for-you review and local content work that’s now part of SMB Team’s Full-Service Marketing.

See it for yourself in 10 seconds

Type your practice area and we’ll open the exact search your next client runs. Look at the top three in the map pack. Those are the firms getting the call.
