FAQ

Seattle AI legal marketing — answered

Yes. We provide AI-powered legal marketing and GEO services for firms in Seattle and across the U.S. — law-firm-only since 2002, with an office at 1700 Seventh Ave, Suite 2100, Seattle, WA 98101. We specialize in positioning Seattle attorneys inside the knowledge graphs of ChatGPT, Gemini, Claude, Perplexity and Google AI Overviews.

Through four core mechanisms: (1) structured Schema.org markup (LegalService, Person, Organization) that makes expertise machine-readable; (2) third-party citations across directories, bar associations and review platforms AI engines trust; (3) topical authority pages targeting local courts and practice areas; and (4) fact-dense, question-shaped content that answers the queries AI engines retrieve.

Combine three approaches: GEO gets your firm cited as a source by AI engines; AEO wins the featured answer and AI Overviews; and local SEO wins the Google map pack. We measure signed cases, not vanity traffic — clients average 18:1–21:1 ROI. Past results do not guarantee future outcomes.

Pricing is month-to-month with no lock-in and scales with scope — practice areas, service-area breadth and content volume. We include a free 23-point AI-visibility audit, and you own all code, content and data we build.

Schema and technical fixes typically land within 1–3 weeks. AI citation share begins to compound within 60–90 days as topical authority builds around your practice areas and the local courts you serve.

Traditional agencies focus on Google keyword rankings and link building. We position your firm inside the knowledge graphs that power ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity and Google AI Overviews. Founded by a former Google Marketing Director, we measure success by signed cases and AI citation share, and clients own their assets.

We specialize in personal injury, family law, criminal defense, employment law, estate planning, immigration, and bankruptcy. Each practice area receives dedicated local content built around the courts and tailored FAQ/schema for firms serving {city} and surrounding cities.

Start with a free, 23-point AI-visibility audit. We show exactly how ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity and Google AI currently describe your firm, which directories rank above you, and the prioritized action plan. Schedule a call or submit the audit form — results in about 24 hours.

Yes. InterCore Technologies is an AI legal marketing agency that works with law firms only, with a Seattle office at 1700 Seventh Ave, Suite 2100, Seattle, WA 98101, in King County. We have worked with law firms exclusively since 2002, engagements are month-to-month with no lock-in contract, and you own the website, content and data we build. Our Seattle work is built around the courts King County matters actually run through: the King County Courthouse at 516 Third Avenue, which houses King County Superior Court; Seattle Municipal Court, in the Seattle Justice Center at 600 Fifth Avenue; and the U.S. District Court for the Western District of Washington, whose Seattle clerk's office is at 700 Stewart Street, Suite 2310. Those addresses were read from kingcounty.gov, seattle.gov and wawd.uscourts.gov on September 4, 2026.

Less than most states, and not what an out-of-state template will tell you. Washington reserved three of its advertising rules: RPC 7.2 (advertising), RPC 7.4 (fields of practice and specialization) and RPC 7.5 (firm names and letterheads) all read [RESERVED], so RPC 7.1 and its fourteen Washington Comments carry almost the whole load. RPC 7.1 is one unlettered paragraph — no subsections — barring a false or misleading communication about the lawyer or the lawyer's services, including one that omits a fact necessary to make the statement, considered as a whole, not materially misleading. Comment 3 says an appropriate disclaimer on results advertising "may preclude a finding" of unjustified expectations; it is persuasive, not a prescribed format. Comment 8 expressly permits a Washington lawyer to say they are a specialist or specialize in a field, subject to that same false-and-misleading standard, and requires the name of the certifying organization in any communication about a certification. And RPC 7.3(a), amended effective April 29, 2025, is permissive on its face — "A lawyer may solicit professional employment unless" the solicitation is false or misleading, the person could not exercise reasonable judgment, the person has said they do not want to be solicited, or the solicitation involves coercion, duress or harassment. The phrase "pecuniary gain" does not appear in Washington's rule at all, though it is in many other states'. Nothing in RPC 7.1 through 7.6 requires an advertisement to be filed with or pre-approved by the WSBA. Rule text read from the Washington State Courts PDFs on September 4, 2026. This is a description of the published rules, not legal advice; confirm application with your own counsel.

Judge it on legal-industry specialization and AI-search capability rather than on proximity, because GEO, AEO, schema and content work is delivered remotely. Four questions separate the field. Does the agency work with law firms only? Can it show you today how ChatGPT, Gemini, Claude, Perplexity and Google AI Overviews currently describe your firm? Does it get Washington's rules right rather than reciting the ABA model — ask whether RPC 7.2 is reserved and whether RPC 7.3 bars solicitation motivated by pecuniary gain, because the answers are yes and no, and a template imported from another state gets both backwards. And do you keep the website, content and data if the engagement ends? InterCore answers the second question with a free 23-point AI-visibility audit before anything is signed, and the third by publishing the rule text and the courts.wa.gov source it came from.

Advertising compliance

Washington attorney-advertising rules every law firm marketer must follow

Washington regulates lawyer advertising through one short rule plus its Comments, and it is not the ABA model. RPC 7.1 — a single unlettered paragraph, adopted effective September 1, 1985 and amended effective September 1, 2006 — bars false or misleading communications. RPC 7.2 (advertising), RPC 7.4 (fields of practice and specialization) and RPC 7.5 (firm names and letterheads) were amended to [RESERVED] in the January 2021 amendments, and their substance now lives in the Washington Comments to RPC 7.1. RPC 7.3 remains active and, unlike most states, is permissive on its face: it opens "A lawyer may solicit professional employment unless" and then lists four disqualifiers. Nothing in RPC 7.1 through 7.6 requires an advertisement to be filed with, submitted to, or pre-approved by the WSBA or the courts. Rule text read from the Washington State Courts PDFs on 2026-09-04; this is a description of the published rules, not legal advice — confirm application with your own counsel.

False or misleading communications

RPC 7.1

RPC 7.1 in full: "A lawyer shall not make a false or misleading communication about the lawyer or the lawyer's services. A communication is false or misleading if it contains a material misrepresentation of fact or law, or omits a fact necessary to make the statement considered as a whole not materially misleading." The rule has no lettered subsections. Comment 2 adds that a truthful statement is also misleading if there is a substantial likelihood it will lead a reasonable person to form a specific conclusion about the lawyer's services for which there is no reasonable factual foundation.

Results, testimonials and disclaimers

RPC 7.1, Comment 3

Comment 3 is the operative text, not a separate disclaimer rule: an advertisement that truthfully reports a lawyer's achievements may be misleading if presented so as to lead a reasonable person to form an unjustified expectation of the same results, and an unsubstantiated comparison of fees or services may be misleading. The Comment says the inclusion of an appropriate disclaimer or qualifying language "may preclude a finding" that a statement is likely to create unjustified expectations — permissive language, not a mandated disclaimer with a prescribed format. Comment 3 was amended effective September 1, 2016.

Specialization and certification claims

RPC 7.1, Comment 8

Comment 8 permits more than most state rules: a lawyer may indicate areas of practice, and is "generally permitted to state that the lawyer is a 'specialist,' practices a 'specialty,' or 'specializes in' particular fields" — subject to the false-and-misleading standard of RPC 7.1. A lawyer may state certification as a specialist only where the certification is granted by an organization approved by an appropriate state authority or accredited by the ABA (or by another organization the state authority has approved to accredit certifiers), and "the name of the certifying organization must be included in any communication regarding the certification."

Firm names and trade names

RPC 7.1, Comment 10

Comment 10 governs names, not advertisement identification. A firm may be designated by members' names, by the names of deceased members where there has been a continuing succession, by a trade name such as "the ABC Legal Clinic," or by a distinctive website address; trade names are acceptable so long as they are not misleading. A geographic trade name such as "Springfield Legal Clinic" may require an express disclaimer that the firm is not a public legal aid agency. It is misleading to use the name of a lawyer or LLLT not associated with the firm.

Solicitation — Washington is permissive

RPC 7.3(a)

RPC 7.3(a) reads "A lawyer may solicit professional employment unless" — (1) the solicitation is false or misleading; (2) the lawyer knows or reasonably should know that the physical, emotional, or mental state of the subject is such that the person could not exercise reasonable judgment in employing a lawyer; (3) the subject has made known a desire not to be solicited; or (4) the solicitation involves coercion, duress, or harassment. The words "pecuniary gain" do not appear in the rule, and there is no blanket bar on in-person or real-time electronic contact. Amended effective April 29, 2025.

Paying for referrals and advertising

RPC 7.3(b)

RPC 7.3(b) bars compensating anyone outside the firm for recommending the lawyer's services, with five listed exceptions: the reasonable cost of advertisements or communications permitted by RPC 7.1, "including online group advertising"; the usual charges of a legal service plan or a qualifying not-for-profit lawyer referral service; payment for a law practice under RPC 1.17; a reciprocal referral agreement that is not exclusive and is disclosed to the client; and nominal gifts neither intended nor reasonably expected to be compensation for a recommendation.

Governing rules: Washington Rules of Professional Conduct (RPC), Title 7 — Information About Legal Services (RPC 7.1, 7.3 and 7.6 active; RPC 7.2, 7.4 and 7.5 are [RESERVED]). InterCore builds and reviews every Seattle, Washington campaign to these standards — real compliance, not guesswork.
