Who this is for

Built for plaintiff firms that already know the cost of shared leads.

Most firms end up here after the national aggregator route fails: cost per signed case climbs while lead quality falls. If that sounds familiar this is the right page.

Good fit
Florida plaintiff firms ready for exclusive inventory
  • You want signed retainers tied to your case management system, not a weekly spreadsheet of shared names.
  • You have an intake team (or AI agent) that can respond within minutes, not hours or business days.
  • You want tort stage planning, not a one size campaign pointed at whatever is on TV this quarter.
  • You need Rule 4-7 and ABA Model Rule workflows documented, not bolted on after launch.
  • You are spending $10k to $75k per month and want the math to trace back to retainers.
Not a fit
Where this system probably is not the right answer
  • You want shared or resold leads at the lowest possible cost per name.
  • Your intake is “call us back Monday” and you are not ready to change that.
  • You need a national full service agency running PI, DUI, family, and mass tort under one retainer.
  • You want a firm that will promise specific case volumes up front, which nobody honest can do.
  • The tort you want to run is already saturated and the math does not work at your expected settlement value.
Why mass tort is not personal injury

In PI the client knows they were hurt. In mass tort, you have to teach them.

The mass tort claimant is searching symptoms, not lawyers. Creative, landing pages, and intake all have to account for that. A different discipline from PI marketing.

Factor
Personal injury
Mass tort
What they search Query intent
“car accident lawyer Miami”
“why does my stomach hurt after Ozempic”
Awareness level Per Eugene Schwartz
Solution aware, already looking for an attorney
Problem unaware, does not know they have a case yet
Geography Campaign scope
One metro, often one county
All 50 states or multi state docket

Services included

Nine services in one engagement. Run by one person accountable to the docket.

Nine workstreams run under one plan tied to your case management numbers. No handoffs between SEO, PPC, and intake vendors.

Mass tort SEO.

Symptom first content built before every national firm is bidding on the same keywords. Maps to MDL criteria so organic traffic is pre qualified. Part of the broader law firm SEO system.

Early stage priority

Google Ads + LSA.

Tort specific ad groups, preloaded negatives from 10 years of Florida legal data, and offline conversion upload from your CMS so Google learns what a signed retainer looks like. Same architecture as law firm PPC.

Active stage workhorse

Meta + TikTok paid social.

Educational video that teaches the claimant what happened to them in plain language. Carries Rule 4-7 disclaimers in the compliant creative cycle.

Awareness driver

CTV + streaming.

Connected TV placements that work with retargeting. Creative matches the landing page word for word to keep quality scores up and CPA down.

Brand + retargeting

Landing page strategy.

One page per tort with symptom checker, eligibility copy, and e sign intake. Built on your own CMS so you never get vendor locked. Sub 1 second LCP target.

Built to own

AI search visibility.

Be the answer when a claimant asks ChatGPT, Perplexity, or Google AI Overviews whether they qualify. Ties into broader AI search optimization.

Compounds over time

Intake automation.

AI assisted qualification against MDL criteria in roughly 90 seconds, e sign retainer by text and email, 45 day automated follow up. Tied into Clio, Filevine, or Lawmatics.

Speed to signature engine

Compliance review.

Rule 4-7 checkpoints, ABA Model Rule disclaimers, HIPAA aligned medical data, TCPA consent logged on every submission. Documented paper trail.

Built in, not bolted on

Reporting & attribution.

Weekly report by tort, territory, channel, and signed retainer, pulled from Google Ads plus your CMS. One view of the funnel end to end.

Signed case math
The intake and verification workflow

Four layers between the form fill and your intake team’s phone.

One bad claimant can torpedo a bellwether. One uninvited call to a professional plaintiff can trigger a TCPA suit. Verification catches both before your staff ever hears the ringer.

01
Consent proof
TrustedForm + Jornaya

Every form fill generates a certificate that documents the moment of consent, like a video replay of the person typing and submitting. Defensible proof of consent if a regulator or opposing counsel asks for it.

Per lead, attached
02
Litigator block
DNC + professional plaintiff scrub

Every submission runs against the federal Do Not Call registry and commercially available litigator lists before intake. Screens out serial TCPA plaintiffs who pattern match to known numbers so your team does not return the wrong call.

Automated, pre intake
03
Criteria match
Three part qualification

Product use, diagnosis, and statute of limitations window checked against the current MDL criteria for the tort. Claimants who miss on any of the three get routed to scheduled callback or declined politely, not pushed through.

Pre intake filter
04
Medical data
HIPAA aligned handling

Diagnosis dates, prescriptions, and hospital records are encrypted in transit and at rest, stored under HIPAA aligned protocols rather than in an intake person’s inbox. Firms remain responsible for final legal and medical review.

Encrypted, gated access
Tort lifecycle framework

You do not run a new tort the same way you run a three year old one.

Running an early stage tort like it is active wastes the first mover window. Running a closing tort like it is early ends up with claimants who fail MDL criteria. Each stage gets its own buyer concern, content angle, and channel priority.

Emerging tort
Before the MDL forms

Signal: FDA adverse events spiking, medical journals publishing, a handful of individual complaints filed before consolidation.

First mover window and it does not stay open long. Symptom first landing pages go live within 24 to 72 hours of the signal. Content is educational because the claimant does not know they have a case. The SEO work you build here carries you through the active stage at a fraction of the CPC.

SEO Paid social AI search
Buyer concern: Low awareness
Active MDL
MDL open, bellwether approaching

Signal: MDL judge assigned, discovery underway, national TV running, claimants now knowing the word “lawsuit” before they search.

CPC is multiples of the early stage but so is claimant awareness. This is the stage where verification matters most because aggregators are flooding the market with recycled names. Google PPC and LSA do the heavy lifting and retargeting compounds everything above.

PPC LSA CTV + retargeting Intake automation
Buyer concern: Lead quality
Late stage
Filing deadline approaching

Signal: SOL window closing, settlement framework announced, national firms pulling back as the docket matures.

Most agencies pull out here and call the tort “saturated” which it usually is not. The remaining claimants are harder to find and the medical evidence filter needs to be tighter to survive MDL criteria challenges. Branded search plus CRM follow up picks up the stragglers your early content already reached.

Branded search CRM re engagement Evidence readiness
Buyer concern: Deadline pressure
Docket economics · 2026 market ranges

The number the managing partner cares about: cost per signed case.

Illustrative market ranges, not guaranteed pricing. The gap between the low end and high end is timing, medical filter depth, and verification rigor. Your cost per signed case will vary.

Litigation
Cost per case
Stage
Market reality
Camp Lejeune
$150 to $400
Mature
Filing window closing and volume steadier for firms that kept the medical criteria tight. National advertisers scaled back as the deadline approached.
Hair relaxer
$300 to $800
Active
Bellwethers approaching in 2026 and firms racing for the last high quality claimants before the statute of limitations curve tightens.
Ozempic / GLP-1
$500 to $1,500
High growth
Costs rising as firms enter the gastroparesis and vision loss search space. Early entrants often pay well under late arrivals, though the gap varies by week.
NEC baby formula
$800 to $2,000
Premium
Rare cases with strict medical evidence filters. The cost per signed case looks high in isolation but maps to the settlement math.
PFAS / AFFF
$400 to $1,200
Active
Water contamination and firefighter foam dockets expanding. Cost depends heavily on exposure source and proof chain requirements.

Methodology. Ranges synthesized from active Florida campaign data, Mass Torts Nexus reporting, and public agency benchmarks. Verified quarterly. Your cost per signed case will vary by tort, geography, intake speed, and medical filter depth. Past ranges are not a guarantee of future economics.

Florida market coverage

Built for Florida’s specific advertising environment.

Florida has some of the highest legal CPCs in the country, Rule 4-7 ad review, bilingual Miami-Dade demand, and billboard firms running heavy TV in every metro. Shaped by those realities, not adapted from a national playbook.

Miami-Dade

~2.7M
  • 70%+ non English at home, bilingual creative is structural, not optional
  • Morgan & Morgan dominance in LSA and display; exact match wins auctions
  • Hialeah, Doral, Brickell, Coral Gables neighborhood targeting

Fort Lauderdale

~1.9M
  • Broward County courthouse volume drives med mal and PI intent
  • I-95 corridor retargeting pairs well with CTV placements
  • Overlap with Miami on Spanish creative but distinct intake patterns

West Palm Beach

~1.5M
  • Older demographic skews Microsoft Ads performance upward on mass tort
  • Higher policy limits on trucking and rideshare cases
  • Palm Beach County as distinct targeting unit from Broward

Tampa Bay

~3.2M
  • Tampa, St. Pete, Clearwater handled as separate DMAs for LSA
  • Strong NEC and PFAS claimant volume tied to MacDill exposure history
  • Morgan & Morgan HQ market; LSA bidding is sharpest here

Orlando

~2.8M
  • Tourism driven PI volume masks mass tort signal; ad groups must separate
  • Kissimmee and Osceola County have distinct Hispanic intake patterns
  • Lower creative saturation than South Florida; CPC often runs 20 to 30% cheaper than Miami-Dade

Jacksonville

~1.7M
  • Camp Lejeune proximity drives pre qualified veteran claimant volume
  • Lower billboard saturation; SEO and review management win earlier than South Florida
  • NAS Jax PFAS exposure relevant for water contamination dockets

The framework also extends to multi state dockets when a Florida firm runs co counsel nationally. Territory rules apply per tort and per state so the exclusivity clause continues to hold as the docket expands.

Engagement model

Three ways this works. Pick the one that matches your docket stage.

Management and creative layer only, separate from ad spend. Scoped during discovery to your tort mix and territory set. If the range does not fit your docket volume, the engagement does not start.

Single tort launch

Pilot

$8k / month mgmt

For firms testing one tort in one or two Florida territories before scaling. Short on docket volume but serious about getting the economics right on the first one.

  • One tort, exclusive territory
  • Landing page + intake workflow
  • Google Ads + one paid social channel
  • Rule 4-7 review + TrustedForm
  • Weekly signed case report
  • 90 day keyword audit
Most firms
Multi tort docket

Growth

$18k / month mgmt

For firms running two or three active torts across multiple Florida metros. The tier where the full 9 service stack kicks in and ad spend scales past six figures monthly.

  • Up to 3 torts, exclusive per tort
  • Full 9 service stack active
  • Google + Meta + TikTok + CTV
  • Intake automation + CMS integration
  • 45 day automated follow up
  • Full reporting + monthly strategy call

How is mass tort marketing priced?

Two layers: a monthly management fee in approximate ranges of $8,000 to $50,000+ depending on scope, and ad spend that runs separately through your firm’s own ad accounts. Most Florida firms on this system spend $20,000 to $150,000 per month on ads plus management, scoped during discovery.

For a pilot in one tort and territory, $15,000 to $30,000 per month total often produces measurable results. Multi tort dockets run $50,000 to $200,000 per month total. The math only works when cost per signed case produces positive return against expected settlement value.

Do you work on exclusive territories?

Yes. One firm per tort per Florida territory. If a Miami Ozempic engagement is already active, no second Miami Ozempic firm gets onboarded, and the exclusivity clause is written into the engagement on day one. Multi state dockets extend state by state per tort.

Which torts are a fit right now?

Active roster includes Ozempic and GLP-1, hair relaxer, NEC baby formula, PFAS and AFFF, and tail end Camp Lejeune for firms with existing docket infrastructure. New torts launch quarterly as FDA and medical journal signals surface.

If you want a tort not actively covered, the first step is a math check against your docket size.

How fast can campaigns launch?

3 to 4 weeks from signed engagement to live ads. That window covers account setup, landing page build, Rule 4-7 creative review, intake workflow integration into the case management system, and TrustedForm provisioning. Emerging stage torts can move faster because the negative keyword moat is smaller at the start.

Can you work with our intake team or CRM?

Yes. Integrates with Clio, Filevine, Lawmatics, and most common CRMs. If you already have 24/7 intake the AI agent runs in assist mode and hands off qualified claimants. If you only have business hours coverage, the AI agent carries nights and weekends so nothing sits on voicemail.

Do you deliver signed retainers or qualified leads?

Signed retainers, through your own ad accounts and your own CMS. Built around the click to sign flow with e sign retainer delivery, not handing off a name and expecting your team to close it. Sign rate depends on tort, claimant cohort, and any attorney review required.

How do you handle Rule 4-7 and compliance?

Rule 4-7 review checkpoints on every ad and landing page, TrustedForm certificates on every submission, DNC and litigator scrub logs, and creative version histories with timestamps. Medical data handled under HIPAA aligned protocols, encrypted in transit and at rest.

The audit trail is retained for the length of the engagement plus any agreed retention window. Firms remain responsible for final legal review of their own advertising under their jurisdiction’s rules of professional conduct.
