Website design for law firms
Your website has one job. A person in a hard week lands on it, decides in a few minutes whether your firm feels competent and human, and either contacts you or contacts someone else. Everything we design serves that decision. The looks, the speed, the words, the structure underneath that search engines and AI systems read. “Pretty” is not the only goal. Being chosen is.
What a build includes
The initial build is a complete site, not a shell. Your homepage plus eight additional pages linked from it, which is enough for your practice areas, your attorneys, your story, and a proper contact page. Every page is consistently branded by our design lead, written for the way clients and search engines actually read, and optimized from day one. Mobile behavior, speed, structured data, titles and descriptions, the technical layer most builders skip and most firms never know they are missing.
When it launches, it is finished. Not finished except the parts that become change orders. Finished. And if you want to see what one looks like, you are reading one right now. This site is the same nine-page structure we build for firms, practicing everything it preaches.
Your website stays yours
Here is a quiet industry problem. Some vendors register the firm's domain in the vendor's own name, hold the hosting account, and bundle it all into one invoice, and the firm only discovers what that means when the relationship ends. We have watched sites get held hostage. So we run it the opposite way, on purpose.
Your domain, your hosting, your accounts, in your firm's name, billed directly to you. We handle the setup and you add your payment details to accounts you own. We do not mark those costs up, we do not act as the middleman, and we do not hold anything. If we ever part ways, your website, your domain, and your content stay exactly where they always were. With you.
What it costs
Builds start at $5,500 as a one-time project price. More practice areas and more pages move the number, and you will know your number before we start, not during. For how that compares across the market, we published the whole picture in what law firm marketing actually costs in 2026.
Our fee covers the work. The operational costs of owning a website, your domain registration and your hosting subscription, run separately in those accounts you own, and for most attorney sites they total a few hundred dollars a year. If we ever think a particular tool, cost, or strategy is worth budgeting more for, we huddle up with you first and implement after you agree. You will never learn about a spend from an invoice.
After the launch
A launched site is a launching pad, not a finish line. Sites that stop adding content slowly fade from search results and AI answers, while sites that keep publishing compound month after month. That is not a sales line, it is how the systems work.
The build is still a standalone project, no monthly anything required, because it is your site. But most firms pair it with our SEO and AI search program, where all ongoing design and technical work is included without counting and the site grows real new content every month. The build stands on its own. The growth comes from what you feed it.
Frequently asked questions
What does the build price include?
A complete nine-page site. The homepage plus eight pages linked from it, designed, written, branded, and optimized, including the structured data and technical SEO layer. When it launches, it is done.
Who owns the website, the domain, and the hosting?
Your firm does, from day one. Domain and hosting live in accounts registered to you and billed directly to you, with no markup from us. If we part ways, everything stays with you.
What ongoing costs should we expect?
Domain registration and hosting, paid directly by your firm, typically totaling a few hundred dollars a year for most attorney sites. If we ever believe something is worth budgeting more for, we bring it to you before implementing, not after.
Do we have to sign up for monthly services to get a website?
No. The build is a standalone project. Many firms pair it with our monthly search and content program because ongoing site work is included there without counting, but the website is complete and yours either way.
How does the website connect to search and AI visibility?
The site is the foundation both stand on. We build the structure, speed, and machine-readable layer in from the start, so if you later want to compete seriously in search and AI answers, the site is already built for it instead of needing a retrofit.
