As with every aspect of everyday life, social media is becoming more prevalent in the legal community. According to a 2020 legal technology study conducted by the American Bar Association (ABA), 80% of lawyers report that their firms maintain a presence on social media, and 80% also personally maintain a social media presence for professional purposes.

Many young lawyers have come of age with social media and may feel more comfortable using it as a tool for legal marketing, client communication, and legal research and discovery. A strong social media presence can help you connect with potential clients, communicate with current clients and grow your professional network.
