What clients check

What clients look for on a law firm website

Worried clients scan a law firm website fast, often on a phone. Six answers decide whether they call or book online.

Do you handle my case?

Pages that name the case types you take and the ones you refer out.

Who is my lawyer?

Each lawyer's admissions, law school and experience, next to a real photo.

What happens next?

A plain explanation of the process, from first consultation to resolution.

How do I reach you?

A short intake form, tap-to-call and office hours on every page.

How do your fees work?

Fee structure in plain words, like contingency, flat fee or hourly rates.

Why trust this firm?

Reviews, memberships and verifiable results shown the way bar rules allow.

First impression

Clients read your website like a first meeting.

A calm, modern site signals a calm, clear lawyer. Good law firm website design earns that first consultation.

What's included

Inside every law firm website design

Six features come with every design and development project, whatever the size of your firm.

01

Case type pages

A page per practice area with process, timeline and fees, written for clients, not lawyers.

02

Lawyer bios that earn trust

Credentials and memberships with person schema, so clients and search engines know who you are.

03

Intake with a disclaimer

Short forms note that sending one does not create an attorney-client relationship.

04

Intake routed to your CRM

Calls and forms reach Smarfle or your case management tool, so staff follow up on marketing leads fast.

05

Bar rule details

Required labels and disclaimers for your state, like New York's Attorney Advertising notice.

06

A CMS your staff can manage

Bio, news and result updates become a two-minute job for your staff, with no developer.

Why it differs

What makes law firm website design different

Most clients see a firm's website before its office. It carries rules, risk and trust most small business sites never face.

Advertising rules

Claims about results or testimonials always have to fit your state's bar rules before going live.

Confidential intake

Forms collect only what the firm needs to call back, and nothing that should wait for a consultation.

Branding with gravity

Our creative team designs around your firm's logos and colors, so the site looks modern yet established.

Clients in two languages

About a third of Orange County residents are Hispanic. Spanish pages often fit Florida firms.

Your options

DIY builder, template or custom design

Three routes to law firm website design. Each one costs something, in money or in time.

DIY website builder

Cheap to start, but layout work pulls a lawyer's focus away from cases for weeks.

Legal website template

Quick to get online, yet many other firms in your city share the same layout.

Custom agency design

Costs more up front. The modern design, branding and intake fit your firm alone.

Examples

Law firm website design examples that work

Good law firm website design does two jobs at once. It persuades worried clients, and it stays inside your state's advertising rules.

  1. 01

    Each page covers one legal issue and one next step.
    Real lawyers
    Photos and bios of the people who will handle the case.
    Plain language

  3. 03

    Template or custom?

    Legal templates make many firms look alike. A custom, modern site shows what makes your firm different, and it always belongs to you.

After launch

Website support and maintenance for firms

Law firm website design doesn't end at launch. Here is who handles what afterward.

01

Edits your staff make

Bios, news and case results go live from the CMS in minutes, with no ticket to us.

02

Changes we make

New case pages and intake changes come to us. We answer most requests the same or next day.

03

Updates and security

Software updates and security fixes run on a schedule under an optional care plan.

04

Marketing when ready

SEO, Google Ads and review requests can run through our marketing team once the site is live.

Before you hire

Questions to ask a law firm web design agency

Compare the scope first, then the agency. These questions help partners make clear decisions about a design and development project.

  1. 01

    Who owns the site?

    Your firm should own the domain, code, content and hosting account. Ask for that in writing before any work starts.

  2. 02

    Does the agency know legal marketing?

    Ask for work in professional services and how it handles bar rules. An agency new to legal marketing can miss required labels.

  3. 03

    What strategy shapes the sitemap?

    Ask how the pages map to the cases you want. A clear strategy beats a pretty home page that ranks for nothing.

  4. 04

    How does intake reach us?

    Ask where form leads go and who sees them first. Intake that lands in a shared inbox can sit for hours.

  5. 05

    What support comes after launch?

    Updates, maintenance and security patches need a plan. Ask who does the job and how fast changes happen.

  6. 06

    How will we measure success?

    Agree on the numbers before launch, such as consultations, calls and the pages that bring them. Then focus on those.

Real answers

Law firm website questions

Cost

How much does a law firm website cost?

Law firm website design with us starts at $9,000, one-time. The number of practice areas, lawyers and languages sets the final price.
Rules

What disclaimers does a law firm website need?

Rules vary by state. In New York, the home page carries the words Attorney Advertising. Florida requires notes with testimonials and verifiable results.
Templates

Is a free law firm website template good enough?

It can work for a new solo lawyer on a tight budget. Templates rarely fit bar rules or intake well, so growing firms move to custom design.
Intake

Can a law firm website connect to our intake software?

Yes. Forms and calls flow into Smarfle or your case management tool, tagged by practice area and source page.
Updates

Can our staff update the website after launch?

Yes. Your staff can manage bios, results and news in the CMS. We train them at launch, and optional care plans cover the rest.
Marketing

Do you handle law firm marketing after launch?

Yes. We run SEO, Google Ads and review requests for law firms. You can start with the website and add marketing when ready.
Timeline

How long does a law firm website take to build?

Around four weeks once we have bios, photos and practice details. Your lawyers' review time can add a few days.Read the full answer →
