Need a website developed or maintained for your law firm?

A professional-looking website builds trust with potential clients, enhances your online visibility, and serves as a key tool for marketing and lead generation.

The timeline depends on the size and complexity of your website. For most small to mid-sized law firms, a new website usually takes between 8 to 12 weeks from start to finish. This includes discovery (understanding your firm’s goals), design, development, testing, and final launch. If you need something faster, we can often create a phased approach—launching a streamlined version first and adding more features later.

Our development timeline varies depending on the complexity of the site. Once we begin work on your project, we will provide you with a more accurate estimate of how long it will take to create your website, keeping you informed at every stage.

Costs vary depending on the scope of your project. A simple law firm website with attorney bios, practice areas, and contact forms might be on the lower end, while a site with advanced features like client portals or online scheduling will be more. In addition to the upfront design and development fee, there are ongoing costs such as domain registration, hosting, and maintenance. We’ll give you a clear breakdown upfront so there are no surprises.

Absolutely. A law firm’s reputation depends heavily on first impressions, so we focus on creating a professional, trustworthy, and modern design that reflects your firm’s brand. We’ll use your logo, colors, and any existing branding, while making sure the design works well on all devices—from desktops to smartphones. If needed, we can also refresh your branding so it feels up to date without losing your firm’s established identity.

Yes, all the websites we build are fully responsive, meaning they will work seamlessly on both desktop and mobile devices, ensuring potential clients can access your legal services wherever they are.

Most law firm websites include attorney profiles, practice area pages, case results, and a contact form. Beyond that, we can add features such as a blog for legal updates, client testimonials, appointment scheduling, chat integration, or even a secure client portal for document sharing. We’ll work with you to decide which features will add the most value for your clients and your firm.

Attorney profiles are one of the most important sections of a law firm website. With the CMS we use, you’ll be able to easily add a new lawyer’s photo, bio, credentials, and contact information in minutes.

We’ll spend time understanding your firm’s values and tone. A family law firm may need a compassionate, approachable design, while a corporate firm may want a more authoritative look. The design, images, and writing will all align with your brand personality.

DIY builders like Wix or Squarespace are fine for personal projects, but they often lack the customization, SEO strength, and professional polish needed for law firms. With us, you get a site tailored to your firm, built for growth, and designed to attract clients—not just look nice.
