Inspired by Carolyn Elefant’s webinar this afternoon on the use of ChatGPT in the marketing of your legal practice through writing an Ebook, I started playing with ChatGPT a little bit more on the legal blogging front. Specifically, I asked ChatGPT about the ethics of lawyers hiring ghostwriters to write blog posts and then holding out the content the public as something the lawyer wrote.

The single biggest impediment to blog success for lawyers is failing to focus on a niche. The tighter the niche the better. Niche blogs become must reads for an audience, enable a lawyer to build a reputation (often where no other lawyer is playing) and enable relationships to flourish, often for work outside the niche.
