Adding Goodlawyer to Your Linkedin
Tips for keeping your LinkedIn profile strong as a Goodlawyer and how the network shows up for each other online.
Linkedin is one of the best ways to showcase your professional brand and the value you bring to clients. If you're working on mandates through Goodlawyer, we encourage you to update your Linkedin profile to reflect our partnership and the work you’re doing on your mandates.
Here are a few simple updates you can make to polish your profile and proudly represent your work with Goodlawyer:
1. Banner Image
A professional banner helps set the tone for your profile. We’ve created a branded Linkedin banner you can use at your discretion, just save the image below.
2. Professional Headline
Your Linkedin headline is one of the first things people see when they find your profile. Keeping your headline clear and keyword-rich helps clients and colleagues quickly understand your specialty. Here’s a good example of how we’ve seen some lawyers in our network add it in their headline:
- Privacy & Regulatory Lawyer | Fractional Legal Counsel | Goodlawyer Network
3. Experience
Your experience section is a great place to formally highlight your work through Goodlawyer. Here's how you might structure it:
- Position Title: Fractional Legal Counsel
- Company: Goodlawyer
- Description: Write a few lines about the industries and types of clients you work with, areas of law you specialize in, and how you help businesses.
You can even add individual client engagements as separate roles to showcase the breadth and depth of your practice (with permission from your clients). Something like:
- Position Title: Fractional Privacy Counsel (via Goodlawyer)
- Company: ACME Inc.
- Description: Write a few lines about the specific role focusing on client impact and outcomes.
