A jingle for your law firm that your state bar can live with

A law firm jingle should make your firm's name and practice area easy to recall when someone needs a lawyer: after a crash, an arrest, a divorce filing. SingingAds writes it from your practice page, sings it for radio and cuts a vertical video. Lawyer ads are governed by your state's rules of professional conduct (California's are Rules 7.1 to 7.3), so results, fee and comparison lines need a careful look first.

A name people remember at the worst moment

The process: you provide your practice area page; SingingAds writes and sings a jingle about that practice and edits it into a vertical video; you receive an MP4 and the song as audio; and every statement about your firm is lifted from your page, with result, fee and comparison claims flagged, so a lawyer at the firm signs off on each line before production.

Nobody shops for a personal injury or criminal defense lawyer for fun. They need one suddenly, and the name they recall is often the one with a tune. Keep the song to the firm name, the practice area, the place and one way to reach you. A short web address beats a phone number sung once, unless your number is already the brand.

What the rules say about content

Each state adopts its own version of the lawyer advertising rules. California's are a useful reference because they spell things out:

  • Rule 7.1: no false or misleading communication about a lawyer's services. The comments say an express promise of a result is misleading, that "no fee without recovery" is misleading unless the ad says whether the client will owe costs, and that past results, testimonials and comparisons with other lawyers may mislead without qualifying language.
  • Rule 7.2(c): an advertisement must include the name and address of at least one lawyer or firm responsible for its content.
  • Rule 7.3: covers solicitation. A targeted written, recorded or electronic communication to someone known to need legal help in a particular matter must say "Advertisement" or similar at the start and end, while ads to the general public, such as a TV commercial or a website, are not solicitations.

The ABA's 2017 proposal to revise its Model Rules dropped the old "Advertising Material" envelope wording from Model Rule 7.3, but state supreme courts choose whether to adopt Model Rule changes, so read your own state's version.

Lines to leave out of a legal jingle

  • "We win" or "we get you paid": an outcome promise.
  • "No fee unless we win" without the costs disclosure your state requires.
  • "The toughest lawyers in the state": an unsubstantiated comparison.
  • Dollar recoveries: past results need context your song cannot give.

SingingAds flags result, money and comparison claims on your page for you to check. It never invents a client story or a verdict.

Dramatization and who appears

Everyone in the video is a fictional adult, generated for the ad, not a lawyer from your firm or a real client. Ask your state bar whether it expects a disclosure for dramatized scenes or AI footage, and add the wording to the end card if so. The 3D look helps here: it reads as clearly illustrated, with a tidy office, a phone ringing, a calm consultation table. Turn on the AI label when you post.

The end card is also where the responsible lawyer's name and office address go, if your state follows a rule like California's 7.2(c).

Radio first, then social

Radio is still where many local firms build a name. Use 60 seconds for a slow sung spot or 30 with room for a spoken disclaimer the station records. The jingle downloads as its own audio file. On Facebook and Instagram, 30 seconds to adults in your area keeps the same name and tune. See radio ad jingles and a Spanish jingle if you serve Spanish-speaking clients; California's rules also say a firm should not imply it can work in a language unless it actually can.

Illustrative example: a made-up personal injury firm

Calder and Wynn, Attorneys at Law (fictional). Buyer: an adult in a rental car the week after a collision. Moment: the second call from the other driver's insurer. Claims from the page: "personal injury and car accident cases", "consultations at no charge" (rewritten by the firm as "talk to us first"), "Fresno and Visalia offices", "se habla español" (one lawyer is fluent). Flagged and cut: "we've recovered millions for our clients" (a past result) and "no fee unless we win" (needs a costs disclosure).

Opening lines offered: "Insurer on the line again" / "After the crash, before you sign" / "Not your fault, still your call". The firm picked the second.

30 second lyrics:

  • After the crash, before you sign,
  • Calder and Wynn are on the line,
  • Car accidents, injury cases,
  • Fresno, Visalia, real faces.
  • Talk to us first, then decide,
  • Calder and Wynn, on your side.

End card: web address, the responsible lawyer's name and office address, and "Dramatization" because the scenes are generated.

What it can't do

  • It is not legal ethics advice; your state bar's rules and any required review remain your firm's responsibility.
  • It does not record a spoken disclaimer; a spoken tag comes from you or the station.
  • It does not send targeted letters, texts or messages to potential clients.

Questions

Does a law firm jingle need to say "Advertisement"?

For general ads on radio or social, usually not under rules like California's, which treat general public ads differently from targeted solicitations. Rules differ by state, so check yours.

Can the song mention our case results?

Lawyer advertising rules treat past results as potentially misleading without context, and a song has no room for context. Most firms are better off leaving results out of the lyrics.

Can we show a lawyer in the ad?

The video shows a fictional adult, not your attorneys. If your state requires a disclosure for dramatizations or actors, add it to the end card.

Do we have to submit the ad to the bar?

It depends on the state. Ask your bar whether it reviews or files lawyer ads before you book any airtime.

How much does a law firm jingle cost?

From $15 for one ad, or $59 for about 6 thirty-second video ads. Credits never expire. The jingle alone, for radio, is 4 credits.
