About Quimbee

Quimbee is an all-in-one platform that provides the materials and guidance law students and legal professionals need to succeed. More than 817,000+ law students have used Quimbee to ace law school. Top students also trust Quimbee Bar Review to help them pass the bar exam and attorneys are able to easily satisfy their CLE requirements.

The Challenge

In 2017, Quimbee was relying on word-of-mouth marketing and organic traffic to get law students to their website. Previous engagements with agencies and consultants yielded no real results, leading Quimbee to come to us with the goal of driving law students to sign up for subscriptions.

Our Approach

Quimbee has been a Level Up client since 2017. Since working together, we have seen Quimbee go from helping 200,000 law students ace law school to over 800,000 in 2025.

Additionally, we’ve helped Quimbee launch and scale their Bar Review product in 2018, and Continuing Legal Education (CLE) in 2020.
