Case Study
In early 2017, well renowned Irish law firm, Poe Kiely Hogan Lanigan, approached Enlighten IC to update their online presence and help position the firm as a nationwide leader for specific areas of law.
Enlighten IC has taken our digital marketing capability from a very low base to what is now - a powerful and important business driver. They have added significant value, and are now a key business partner to the firm. John has also, through his broad range of marketing and communications skills, contributed to several broader aspects of our business development. I would not hesitate to give Enlighten IC my full recommendation.

In the beginning of our engagement the firm had a standard ‘cookie cutter’ website with no up-to-date information and channels such as social media, email and SEO were not being used to drive visitors to the website in order to learn more and get in touch.
At the time of appointment there had been no meaningful enquiries from the firm’s website.
The first step in the project was to implement our ‘Strategic Insight’ exercise to understand the firm better and get a clearer view on what it was they were working to achieve. This exercise involved meeting with each Partner plus groups of Solicitors and Staff so that everyone had an opportunity to participate in and contribute to the firm’s vision for the future. The process culminated with a presentation to the entire firm in order to share the outputs of the exercise to ensure everyone was on the same page, shared the vision and was committed to the firm’s objectives and plans for the future.
An early output of the Strategic Insight exercise was that the firm’s Brand Identity needed to be updated to project the image of a modern law firm with an appetite for growth. The firm is well renowned for its broad range of legal expertise across the South East of Ireland and also has a nationwide reputation for specific areas of law such as complex local authority regulation, surrogacy law and renewable energy.
A progressive brand identity was developed with numerous assets designed and produced to help position Poe Kiely Hogan Lanigan Solicitors as a modern law firm with a strong regional presence coupled with specific legal expertise on a national level.
In addition to the strategy phase recognising the need for a new brand identity, the firm’s website was also identified as an area requiring immediate attention. As such Enlighten IC designed and developed a modern and responsive website in accordance with this brand identity. A key difference between the old website and new website was the concerted effort to bring visitors on a journey through the site in order to learn more and ultimately make an enquiry for the firm’s solicitors to get in touch and provide assistance.
As part of the ongoing relationship with Poe Kiely Hogan Lanigan, it was agreed that our initial focus would be to raise awareness of the firm’s expertise in Surrogacy Law. In recent times Surrogacy has become more and more common as an alternative route to parenthood for couples in Ireland who cannot conceive naturally and require assistance to have a family of their own.
With Poe Kiely Hogan Lanigan’s nationwide reputation for expertise and quality of service in this area, it was decided that Surrogacy law would be the first area of focus for our work.

It is fair to say that the positioning of the firm’s Surrogacy team as the nationwide legal experts (which they are) has also seen a big increase in interest from offline sources such as numerous newspapers, radio stations and TV programmes getting in touch based on finding Poe Kiely Hogan Lanigan online and having read their content, getting in touch for their expert opinion and to participate in various shows, programmes and articles.
