The pattern

What the best law firm websites have in common.

Good lawyer website design is less about decoration than about making the next step obvious. These are the things every example above is built around.

A phone number in the first screen

Many people look for a lawyer on their phone. A number they can tap to call, near the top of the page, is the shortest route to an enquiry.

One page for each type of matter

A page each for divorce, a house purchase or a visa lets visitors confirm you handle their problem, and gives Google something specific to show for that search.

Plain words, in the client’s language

Visitors are often worried or in a hurry. Short sentences about what happens next do more than a list of credentials, and a Spanish (or other) version helps where your clients speak it.

What happens after they get in touch

A short section on the first call, the first meeting and how fees are explained answers the question people are too nervous to ask.

Firm details that match everywhere

The firm’s name, address, phone number and hours should be the same on the site, the Google Business Profile and every directory.

Regulatory information where it’s expected

In England and Wales, the SRA requires its digital badge on a firm’s site, and price and service information for some services. US firms follow their state’s attorney advertising rules.

Fast and readable on a phone

Large text, buttons big enough to tap and pages that load quickly on a mobile connection. Every example here is built for a 375-pixel screen first.

Forms that ask only what’s needed

Name, phone, email, the type of matter and a short message, with a line saying that sending it does not make someone a client.

A way to reach the firm out of hours

Many enquiries arrive in the evening. A form that reaches the right inbox, or an assistant that takes details for a call back and never gives legal advice, means those enquiries aren’t lost.

Questions

Questions about the examples.

Are these real law firms?

No. Every firm, person, address, phone number and email address on this page is fictional. SmartFirm HQ designed the examples to show what a small firm’s site can look like. The phone numbers come from ranges set aside for fiction, and the email addresses use example.com.

Can my firm’s website look like one of these?

Yes, as a starting point. Every site is built around your own services, logo and colours, and you approve the design before it goes live. Send us your firm’s name and city and we’ll build a free preview of your homepage.

How long does a site like this take?

Your site is live within 7 days of your two approvals: one for the design and one for the finished site, with every form, call button and connection tested at launch.

Why don’t the examples show reviews?

Reviews on a website should come from real clients, so the fictional firms have none. On a real site we can link to your Google reviews, within your regulator’s rules on publicity.

How much does a website like this cost?

One clear price, given on a 15-minute call. Add-ons such as SEO or missed-call text-back are scoped separately.
