Should Your Law Firm Celebrate Its Anniversary? Here's What Actually Works | Legal Marketing Q&A

When a managing partner of a Melbourne family law firm asked about their 10th-anniversary plans, it sparked an important conversation about how professional service firms can turn milestones into meaningful opportunities.

In this candid Q&A, we explore why some law firm anniversaries fall flat while others create lasting impact. Whether you're approaching 10 years or 100, you'll discover:

  • Why the "big party vs rebrand" debate misses the real opportunity
  • How family law firms can leverage referrer relationships differently than commercial firms
  • The single most important element of your managing partner's anniversary speech
  • A clever alternative to expensive rebrands that most firms overlook
  • The thought leadership opportunity hiding in plain sight
  • Why rushing to meet your anniversary date might be a mistake
