Primary Finding

Despite dual Texas Board of Legal Specialization certification in Family Law and Personal Injury Trial Law — a rare credential — wulf-law.com does not appear on page 1 or 2 for "criminal defense attorney Tyler TX" or "personal injury attorney Tyler TX," while Matt Bingham (former DA) and Martin Walker PC hold top spots.

Visibility Gap 70%
No schema markup Homepage and criminal defense page fetch confirmed zero ld+json or LocalBusiness schema — a critical local SEO gap (confirmed: homepage fetch, practice page fetch)
Thin practice area pages Criminal defense page under 500 words — primarily boilerplate with no sub-practice breakdowns for DUI, felony, or drug charges (confirmed: practice page fetch)
Zero Google visibility Not found in top 20 for "criminal defense attorney Tyler TX" or "personal injury attorney Tyler TX" (confirmed: two WebSearch queries)
Board certification buried Dual TBLS certification not in any title tag, meta description, or schema — invisible to search engines (confirmed: site: search snippet)

Infrastructure Fixes

Actionable Protocol

These structural changes are the highest-leverage path to page 1. Most can be implemented within 30 days.

A

Deploy LocalBusiness + Attorney schema immediately

Neither homepage nor any practice page carries ld+json. Adding LegalService schema with board certification credentials and Smith County service area gives Google structured signals no Tyler competitor currently provides.

B

Rebuild criminal defense and PI pages to 1,000+ words each

Both practice pages are under 500 words with no sub-practice sections. Each needs dedicated H2s for case types, Tyler/Smith County court references, and internal links — the pattern that lets mattbinghamlaw.com hold top spots.

C

Make board certification the headline trust signal

TBLS certification in both Family Law and Personal Injury Trial Law is documented but not in title tags, H1, or schema. Competitors like Martin Walker PC lead with board certification in page titles — Wulf Law has the same credential and is not using it.
