Law Firm Website Design Services

Your law firm website is the first meaningful contact that many people, including potential clients and opposing counsel, have with your firm. It’s essential for establishing your credibility, explaining your services, and showing what sets your firm apart from competitors. To create a website that truly reflects your practice, it’s important to work with a company that takes the time to understand your practice and your goals.

The Modern Firm has helped nearly 2000 law firm website design clients. Most of our clients choose us because of the relationship we start building right from our initial consultation. But it’s our integrated approach to law firm branding, website design, and online marketing that is the key to helping them establish an online presence that furthers their goals. While each of these components can work independently, when properly coordinated, they are even more powerful.

Effective Web Design, Painless Process

Our website design process creates law firm websites that look modern and professional, function seamlessly, and reflect your firm’s brand. Our goal is to make this as painless as possible for you. As an attorney, you are busy enough—you shouldn’t have to become a de facto designer or learn complicated terminology just to get a website. We keep things clear and practical, giving you the level of input you want to have without weighing you down with needless decisions.

Website Design Options for Your Law Firm’s Needs

No two law firms are alike, so it stands to reason that different practices may need different website design options. Some attorneys want to be involved in every decision about their site’s design. Others get overwhelmed by too many options, or simply prefer to express a broad vision and trust a professional to bring that vision to life. 

To accommodate varying preferences and needs, The Modern Firm offers three law firm website design processes:

Custom 

Our fully custom websites allow for the highest level of personalization. These projects involve a 90-minute branding intake Zoom meeting, in which we get to know you and your firm more in-depth, and a 90-minute Zoom to discuss your design preferences. Custom websites include a fully-customized home page with the option of customization for practice areas and attorney profile pages. Custom projects allow unlimited revisions of the mock-up of your website to ensure that elements are just the way you want them. These projects also offer a video design reveal “walkthrough” of your website.

Custom website designs have the longest time frame to complete, typically in the range of three to six months. These options are ideal for law firms that want to exercise their creativity, or that want to be more deeply involved in the design process. Law firms that have an established visual brand and want to incorporate more branding elements into their website also benefit from the custom design process.

Guided

Guided website projects offer a choice of three layouts with the opportunity for some customization, primarily on the home page, and with logos, colors, fonts, and the hero image and stock imagery. Like our custom law firm website design projects, guided website projects involve a branding intake, but do not require a design meeting. Due to the streamlined design process, revisions are limited to two rounds, helping the project maintain clarity and momentum. 

Guided websites also provide a video design walkthrough, and because of the nature of this process, projects can often be completed in as little as 2-3 months. The guided website process is a good choice for busy law firms that want to put their imprint on the site, but that need efficiency and prefer to avoid getting bogged down by too many decisions.

Simple 

As the name suggests, the simple website process involves the most standard elements, but still allows for customization of the logo, hero image, color, and text. Unlike the more highly-customized options, simple websites do not include any stock imagery on interior pages. Any written content must be provided by the law firm.

Because these projects require little designer involvement and do not need a branding call, they can be launched very quickly—often in as little as two to four weeks. This makes them ideal for law firms that want a simple law firm website design to establish an online presence, or to use as a placeholder while their custom site is being developed.

Whether your website is primarily for validation or a component of a complex marketing strategy, we offer tailored solutions—as much or as little as you need—that meet you where you are and help you get to where you want to be.

Additional Options for Custom and Guided Website Projects

In addition to website design, The Modern Firm offers a range of optional services that can enhance your law firm brand and support your overall marketing efforts. These add-ons are available to further tailor custom or guided websites to your law firm’s unique needs.

Logos

A well-designed logo enhances the professionalism of your law firm’s brand. Your logo can be used across both physical and digital touchpoints to provide consistency and cohesion. It’s a visual anchor that helps viewers recognize and remember your firm, and lays the groundwork for essential elements of your website design and marketing materials.

Brand Collateral 

Your law firm website plays a critical role in establishing and conveying your firm’s brand, but other marketing materials, both print and digital, reinforce that branding. The Modern Firm can help to create marketing materials including signage; brochures; business cards; email signatures; Zoom backgrounds; social media imagery, and more.

Content

Your website conveys information about you not only with imagery, but in words. The quality of that content matters. When content is well-written, meaningful, and unique, it is valued by both search engines and readers. The Modern Firm’s professional writers all have law degrees and practice experience; they care about getting the law right, and expressing ideas in your firm’s brand voice.

Optimization

The Modern Firm’s Kickstart Optimization process is a one-time service to optimize your firm's key practice areas and jump-start marketing efforts before website launch. Our Marketing Director is involved from the outset of the process to help lay the foundation for your practice’s future success in marketing. This service is recommended for any law firm that hopes to generate leads through their website, and is especially relevant to maintain search rankings for firms that are leaving another marketing agency or have existing high rankings they want to preserve.

Your Law Firm Website Powered by WordPress

When you work with The Modern Firm, you will own the online presence you have invested so much in cultivating. All of our websites are built using the award-winning WordPress software. This robust, cost-effective, standards-based platform is the most popular content management system in the world. Unlike other platforms, all editing functionality is baked into the website without additional licensing costs.

Because we create websites only for law firms, we’ve taken WordPress to the next level by completely customizing the editing interface to focus on the features law firms need. We include interactive training with every website project, so that once your site launches, you’ll know how to maintain it. And even though we offer ongoing support and hosting as a service to our clients, you’re not locked into working with us. If you decide to move to a different vendor in the future, it will be easy to do so.
