Monthly Video Retainer for Texas Law Firms
Most law firms struggle with consistent content creation. We solve that with a monthly video retainer: 15-60 bar-compliant videos per month, professionally filmed at your office, plus complete ad management. You invest 60-90 minutes monthly. We handle everything else.
Why monthly video retainers work: Consistent content builds authority faster than sporadic one-off videos. Our Texas law firm clients generate 200-450+ case inquiries per year from video content alone. Need one-time videos instead? Check out our law firm video production services for testimonials, brand videos, and commercials.
One-time video shoots cost $3,000-$7,000 and give you limited content. A monthly retainer delivers 15-60 videos for similar investment—plus ongoing strategy, distribution, and ad management. More importantly, consistent posting builds compounding results that one-off projects cannot match.
Most law firms invest in a big video shoot, get 3-5 great videos, post them once, and then... nothing. Six months later, they're back to posting stock images and text updates. The algorithm stops favoring their content. Momentum dies. They have to start from scratch again.
Meanwhile, firms on monthly retainers are posting 15-60 times per month across Instagram, TikTok, Facebook, YouTube, and LinkedIn. Each video amplifies the previous ones. The algorithm rewards consistency. Authority compounds. Case inquiries become predictable instead of sporadic.
Looking for one-time projects like client testimonials, attorney profiles, or TV commercials? Our law firm video production services cover all single-project needs. But if you want sustained growth through consistent content, keep reading—retainers deliver 5-10x more value over time.
We come to your law office 1-2 times per month for 60-90 minute sessions. We capture 15-60 short-form videos optimized for Instagram Reels, TikTok, YouTube Shorts, Facebook, and LinkedIn. Broadcast-quality cameras, professional lighting, studio-grade audio—all included.
Before filming, we build a 90-day content calendar based on proven topics: practice area FAQs, legal myth-busting, process explainers, case study breakdowns, and seasonal content. You approve the plan; we execute everything.
Every video gets custom formatting: 9:16 vertical for Reels/TikTok/Shorts, 1:1 square for Instagram/Facebook feeds, 16:9 landscape for YouTube/LinkedIn. Captions, text overlays, color correction, branded intros/outros, and required legal disclaimers included.
We don't just deliver videos—we post them for you. We manage your law firm's Instagram, TikTok, Facebook, YouTube, LinkedIn, and Google Business Profile with optimized captions, hashtags, and strategic scheduling. One filming session becomes 15-60 posts across 6+ platforms.
We run targeted ad campaigns using your best-performing videos. You provide the ad budget ($500-$5,000+/month typical); we manage targeting, creative testing, optimization, and reporting. Maximum ROI from every video.
Every video follows Texas State Bar advertising rules. We include required disclaimers ("This is attorney advertising. No attorney-client relationship is formed..."). You get final approval before anything goes live. Multi-state compliance available if needed.
From strategy call to qualified case inquiries in 4 streamlined steps
We discuss your practice areas, ideal clients, and goals. We build a 90-day content calendar with video topics, hooks, and CTAs. Week 3-4: First filming session at your office (60-90 minutes). We capture 15-60 videos. Post-production begins immediately.
Videos edited and delivered in 5-7 business days. We begin cross-platform posting (3-5x per week). Simultaneously, we launch video ad campaigns targeting prospective clients in your geographic area and practice specialties. You start seeing views, engagement, and inquiries.
Second filming session captures next batch of 15-60 videos. Algorithm begins favoring your consistent content. Engagement increases. Case inquiry volume grows. We analyze which topics drive the most leads and double down on what works.
After 60-90 days, we have clear performance data showing which content converts best. We create more of what works, eliminate what doesn't. Most firms scale up video volume or ad spend once they see ROI. Compounding results continue building.
What determines pricing: Video volume (15-60 videos/month), filming frequency (1-2 sessions/month), number of platforms, ad campaign complexity, practice area competition, and geographic market size (Houston PI costs more than estate planning in smaller metros).
What's included in retainer: Professional filming at your law office, editing for all platforms, bar compliance review and disclaimers, cross-platform posting and scheduling, ad campaign management and optimization, monthly performance reporting, strategic content calendar planning.
Ad spend (separate from retainer): $500-$5,000+/month typical. Personal injury firms typically invest $2,000-$5,000+/month. Family law and estate planning firms typically invest $500-$2,000/month. You control the ad budget—we manage campaigns to maximize ROI.
Minimum commitment: 3 months (video marketing builds momentum over time—expect best results months 3-6+)
One-off video shoot: $3,000-$7,000 for 3-5 videos = $600-$1,400 per video
Monthly retainer (mid-tier): $5,000/month for 30 videos = $167 per video
Monthly retainer (high-volume): $8,000/month for 60 videos = $133 per video
Plus retainers include ongoing strategy, distribution, posting, and ad management—services that would cost $2,000-$5,000+/month if purchased separately. The value compounds over 6-12 months as your video library grows and each new video amplifies previous content.
