Market read

Dayton's legal market shows sparse density with minimal AI visibility—ChatGPT named zero of Google's top-3 in personal injury searches. Top-3 firms hold 138 median reviews (internal benchmark, Apr 2026) against a pack-entry floor of 63, indicating substantial review accumulation as a competitive threshold. Average ratings cluster at 4.82, while profile completeness averages 63/100, suggesting incomplete optimization across leading practices. Top-3 median referring domains reach 401, with DFS rank averaging 227. Review velocity of 2.25 monthly (internal benchmark, Apr 2026) reflects modest engagement patterns. For p25 entrants targeting top-tier positioning, the data indicates two primary gaps: review velocity acceleration and domain authority building through strategic link acquisition remain the primary levers separating competitive tiers.
