Primary Finding

McGrath Gibson Law does not appear in top 20 for "criminal defense attorney Jacksonville FL" despite having a dedicated criminal defense attorney — because the domain (learnyourrights.com), title tag ("Jacksonville Personal Injury Attorneys"), and schema all position the firm exclusively as a personal injury firm.

Criminal defense not in homepage H1 H1 is "EXPERIENCE AND GUIDANCE WHEN YOU NEED IT MOST" — generic, no practice area signal; PI section dominates above the fold (confirmed: homepage fetch)
Blog inactive since November 2025 Last post November 25, 2025 — 4+ months without content; blog covers car accidents and military divorce but no criminal defense posts (confirmed: blog fetch)
Schema categorizes as PI only Organization/LocalBusiness schema with "ProfessionalService" type does not enumerate criminal defense as a service (confirmed: homepage fetch)

Revenue Impact

Jacksonville is the largest city by area in the continental US with ~949,000 residents. Criminal defense keyword cluster generates 4,000–6,000 monthly searches. McGrath Gibson has the infrastructure to compete but the PI-only brand blocks all criminal defense visibility. Dale Carson Law and First Coast Criminal Defense capture the traffic.

Actionable Protocol

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

A

Create standalone criminal defense landing page with its own schema

A dedicated /jacksonville-criminal-defense-attorney/ page with its own title tag and LegalService schema specifying criminal defense gives Google a clean category signal disconnected from the PI-dominated homepage.

B

Update schema to enumerate all three practice areas equally

Homepage schema uses ProfessionalService with no service-specific items for criminal defense or family law. Adding hasOfferCatalog items for each practice area tells Google this is a multi-practice firm.

C

Publish Jacksonville criminal defense blog posts

Blog covers car accidents and military divorce — no criminal defense content. Publishing posts on DUI defense Duval County, drug crimes Jacksonville, felony expungement builds the topical authority signal for the criminal defense category.
