In this episode:

Host Bruce Richard interviews Tyler Summers, a Massachusetts family law attorney who has grown a strong social media following by producing engaging, informative, and often humorous content about divorce, prenups, and family law. Tyler offers practical advice for attorneys who are curious about using social media to expand their reach without compromising professionalism.

With openness, humor, and hard-earned experience, Tyler shares his thoughts on:

  • Finding balance between professionalism and relatability on platforms like Instagram and TikTok
  • The biggest misconceptions about social media marketing for lawyers — including the myth that followers instantly translate to clients
  • Handling viral content responsibly, including lessons learned from controversial posts
  • Producing high-quality, consistent content that reflects your brand and values
  • Time management and team support — how outsourcing editing and production helped him stay focused on client work
  • Doing due diligence before hiring a social media marketing company
  • The long game of growth — how patience and persistence lead to genuine engagement and opportunities

Tyler’s insights offer attorneys practical takeaways for developing an authentic online presence that supports, rather than distracts their legal careers.

Tyler Summers, Esq. — Founder of Summers Family Law, based in Needham with a satellite office in Boston’s Back Bay. Tyler focuses exclusively on family law, including divorce and prenuptial agreements, and has built a following of over 50,000 on Instagram by blending humor, insight, and education in his legal content.
