How ChatGPT’s Deep Research Mode Can Save Your Law Firm 10 Hours a Week (Part 1)

Most law firms are still using ChatGPT like it’s 2023—copy-pasting prompts, writing basic blog posts, or maybe drafting a quick email.

That’s fine… but it’s just scratching the surface.

What if you could save 10 hours a week and uncover the exact messaging that turns website visitors into paying clients?

That’s the power of ChatGPT’s Deep Research Mode—and in this post, I’ll show you how to use it to truly understand your clients and create content that actually connects.

Start With What Matters Most: Your Clients

According to research, 71% of companies that exceed revenue and lead goals have documented client personas.

But here’s the hard truth: most law firms skip this step—or they create generic avatars that don’t reflect reality.

The Old Way:

  • Hours of interviews

  • Messy surveys

  • Vague, inconsistent responses

The New Way:

ChatGPT’s Deep Research Mode Instead of guessing, ask ChatGPT to analyze:

  • Forums

  • Review sites

  • Reddit threads

  • Social media posts

You’ll uncover real conversations your potential clients are already having—right now.

And instead of just demographics, you’ll get psychographics:
The actual language people use when talking about their legal struggles, fears, and goals.

Prompt Example:

“Research the target market for a family law firm in Pennsylvania. Check forums, review sites, and social media to find the exact words people use when talking about divorce, custody, and their desired outcomes.”

ChatGPT might uncover real client sentiments like:

“I’m scared of losing time with my kids.”


“I just want someone who will fight for me without dragging things out.”

That’s marketing gold.

And yes—our Playbook Template includes this built-in so you can fill it out and build your ideal client avatar as you go.

Now That You Understand Your Clients—What’s Next?

You create content that speaks directly to them.

Why It Matters:

  • Content marketing generates 3X more leads than traditional methods

  • It costs 62% less

  • Yet most firms are still guessing what to write or film

With Deep Research Mode, you don’t need to guess.

Prompt Example:

“I’m a personal injury lawyer. Give me YouTube video topics that have high search volume, low competition, and align with my services.”

You’ll get actionable, high-performing topics like:

  • “How much is my car accident case worth?”

     

  • “What happens if the other driver doesn’t have insurance?”

     

  • “What happens with your second DUI?”

Take It Further:

“Now research what my ideal client is thinking or worried about when they search for this.”

This allows you to create strategic content—speaking directly to what your audience is thinking before they even contact you.

Layer in your personal stories, opinions, and insights—and you’ll build trust, credibility, and leads.
