Lawyers take a lot of undeserved heat online.<\/p>\n

You can find literally thousands of lawyer jokes with just a few quick searches. For the most part though, those old jokes are pretty played out.<\/p>\n

But you know what else is played out? The law logos that most law firms decide to go with for their signs and letterhead.<\/p>\n

A gavel or the scales of justice<\/a> might look pretty good to you. But remember, it looks good to just about every law firm out there, as well.<\/p>\n

So get creative with your law logo, and do something that will stand out. Here are some tips.<\/p>\n

1. Old Law Logo, New Design<\/h2>\n

There actually isn\u2019t anything wrong with a classic design.<\/p>\n

A pillar, the scales of justice, or a gavel communicate what you do quickly. Even without the words \u201claw firm\u201d, people will understand that the law is your business.<\/p>\n

However, that doesn\u2019t mean choosing the first stock photo of a gavel and calling it a day. Try a creative spin on a traditional logo that represents your business. We\u2019ve seen gavels and pillars made from newspapers, lighthouses, and even animals.<\/p>\n

The point is that you can still use old standbys if you give them a new twist.<\/p>\n

2. Build From A Letter<\/h2>\n

Many great logos are built from a single point.<\/p>\n

That often includes the first letter of one of the names of the partners. Do two or three partners\u2019 names start with the same letter?<\/p>\n

Even better.<\/p>\n

Using a letter, especially a somewhat rare letter, as the focal point in a logo is a great way to make your brand stick out. For instance, a business like Zanes Law<\/a> capitalize on the unusual nature of the Z in their name.<\/p>\n

3. Use The Logo To Tell People What You Do<\/h2>\n

Sometimes the quickest way to get across your speciality is through the logo.<\/p>\n

Incorporating a man and a woman into your logo as a divorce attorney brings the point home quickly.<\/p>\n

A cast or a crutch incorporated into your design tells people immediately that you work on personal injury cases.\u00a0We\u2019ve even seen the scales of justice created from marijuana leaves<\/a>. They work in a niche market.<\/p>\n

What you\u2019re doing is creating a memorable connection for customers. It tells them exactly what you do and how you can help.<\/p>\n

4. Use The Power of Your Name<\/h2>\n

Simply using the names of your law firm isn\u2019t a bad idea.<\/p>\n

In fact, many law firms rely on the power of their name for attracting customers. It\u2019s a big part of how they build their reputation and their brand.<\/p>\n

The problem that most run into is with the execution of the design. Try pairing the name with icons, or go with a monogram. The idea is to come across as professional, while inspiring confidence in the strength and integrity of your business.<\/p>\n
