Is your practice as easy to find as it is good?

LawIndex lists every registered law firm in South Africa — 16,485 of them — and shows each firm, privately, how visible it actually is to the clients searching for one.

Claim your firm's profile. It takes two minutes and it is free.

What claiming gives you (free, forever)

Your visibility score.

A private audit built from six things clients actually check: your website, your Google rating, your reviews, your phone number, your address, and your listed practice areas. Only you see it. It is never published.

A plain list of what to fix.

Not jargon. “You have no website” or “your Google profile is missing a phone number” — each with a step-by-step guide written for South African firms.

Re-scans on request.

You fix something in the real world — on Google, on your own site — then request a re-scan from your dashboard. Our next scan picks it up and your score moves. You watch your own progress.

Your data, corrected.

If the Legal Practice Council records have your name or town wrong, tell us through the dashboard and we fix our records.

No credit card. No trial period. The free access is free because firms that can see the problem tend to fix it — and some ask for help.

Where this data comes from

Every firm on LawIndex comes from the public Legal Practice Council records, matched against what is publicly visible on the web — Google Business Profiles, websites, reviews. We show you exactly what a prospective client would find. Nothing more, nothing hidden.

R1,750/month

Automate — the follow-up system, configured for law firms.

Most firms lose clients not in court but in the first hour: a missed call, a WhatsApp answered tomorrow, a review nobody asked for. Automate fixes the follow-up.

  • Missed-call text-back: a client who rings and gets no answer gets an immediate SMS from your number.
  • Review requests that go out automatically when a matter closes — the single fastest way to move your Google rating.
  • One inbox for calls, SMS, WhatsApp and email enquiries.
  • Intake and appointment pipelines pre-built for legal work, POPIA-ready templates included.

R1,750 per month, no contract, cancel any month.

Everything it does shows up in the numbers you already watch: more Google reviews, a higher LawIndex score, better placement in your town's listing.

Get Automate

From R7,500/month

The Law Firm Growth Agency builds and runs the whole thing.

Website, Google Business Profile, review engine, content, rankings — managed month to month by the team that built LawIndex. This is the same team and the same system behind every guide on this site.

We are currently onboarding firms for the 2026 intake: a fixed-scope start package (full management plus Google Business Profile) at R7,500/month with a 12-month term. Places are limited per province so we do not take competing firms in the same town onto the same plan.

Larger firms and multi-office practices are scoped individually.

The honest version

Most firms on LawIndex will never pay us anything. They will claim their profile, read the guides, fix their Google listing, and get more clients — and that is fine. It makes LawIndex better, and the public index is the point.

Some firms will want the tools. A few will want the whole thing handled. Both are here when you are ready.
