Social networking site(s) & my individual project client

My friends law firm is what I'm doing for my individual project specializing in family law.  All of the major networking sites would benefit her.  I'd recommend for her to use all the major ones including Facebook, Twitter, and LinkedIn.  One of the main benefits in doing this from a lawyer perspective in harvesting clients is getting to know people on a more personal level.  This will foster better relationships with various people if you have forums likes these where you see personal things like what your kids are doing.  By creating these more personable relationships through the above social media forums, she'll increase her chances of being contacted when a family issue occurs needing legal support/advice.  It would require weekly maintenance for sure, staying in contact sending out updates etc on a more personal level yet this is how you get those clients - by creating that trusting, honest and genuine vibe that you really care about them.  Social media is huge in support this in the legal field.
