Does schema markup get a law firm into AI answers?

Not directly. Google says no special schema.org structured data is needed to appear in its AI features. Structured data still helps search engines understand a firm's pages, as long as it matches what the page visibly says.

Markup that makes sense for a firm

  • LegalService or Organization details that match your contact page
  • BreadcrumbList for the site's structure
  • FAQPage only on pages that show those questions and answers to readers

Where markup goes wrong

Markup that claims more than the page shows, such as reviews, ratings, or services not visible on the page, is a liability rather than a shortcut. Keep it accurate and keep it current.
