Summary: Using Invideo for Legal Services Marketing (Based on Oct 2025 Data)
For legal services, marketing is 90% about building trust, authority, and confidence. Clients are often in a vulnerable position, and they need to see a lawyer as a credible, professional, and empathetic expert. Invideo's AI platform allows law firms to create these "trust-building" videos—like explainers and "meet the attorney" bios—at scale, without the high cost of an ad agency.
Why AI for Legal Marketing Matters in 2025
As a recent (September 9, 2025) marketing blog from Cyberclick notes, invideo's AI "turns scripts, URLs, or prompts into fully edited videos in minutes." For a law firm, this means you can take a complex legal topic (from a blog post or URL) and instantly turn it into a clear "explainer video." This demonstrates expertise and builds trust. The key is to create content that is helpful, not "salesy."
How invideo Simplifies Trust-Building Videos
- AI Avatar Explainers ("Ask the Attorney"): This is the most powerful use case. You can use invideo's realistic AI avatars (confirmed in query 608) to create a series of "Ask the Attorney" videos.
- Prompt: "Create a 60-second video with a professional female AI avatar in a law office or bookshelf background. The tone should be authoritative but empathetic. The script is: What are the first three steps to take after a car accident?..."
- Expertise Videos (from Blog): As the Sept 2025 blog confirms, you can use a "blog post URL" as your input. The AI will "auto-generate a script" and create a full video, turning your existing written content into a new, engaging marketing asset.
- Professional AI Voices: You can choose a voice that sounds "credible," "authoritative," and "trustworthy" from invideo's AI voice library to narrate your videos.
Step-by-Step Workflow (AI Avatar Explainer)
- Step 1: Prepare Inputs: Identify a common client question (e.g., "What is a will?", "How does a consultation work?"). Write a clear, simple, 60-second answer.
- Step 2: Write the Prompt:
- Prompt: "Create a 60-second explainer video. Use a professional male AI avatar in a modern law office background. The script is: [Paste your 60-second answer script here]. The tone must be calm, clear, and authoritative. Add a lower-third text with John Doe, Esq. - Personal Injury Law."
- Step 3: Generate and Refine: The AI generates the video. You can then refine it: "Change the background to a solid blue color" or "Add a final scene with our firm's logo and phone number."

| Revisions | Requires an expensive reshoot | Fast and text-based |
Expert Tips for Better Results
- Use an AI Avatar: Having a "face" for the firm, even an AI one, builds more trust than a simple voiceover. Choose an avatar that looks professional and trustworthy.
- Focus on Helping, Not Selling: An Oct 31, 2025 blog notes, "Show Real People and Real Moments" (or in this case, real problems). Your videos should answer questions and provide value.
- Add a Disclaimer: For legal content, always add a text overlay at the end (using a text prompt) with your standard legal disclaimer (e.g., "This is not legal advice...").
