NEW WEBSITES
I can design and develop your lawyer website using WordPress and Elementor – a drag-and-drop web builder that will allow YOU to edit your own pages. If you have a design, theme, or just like another website, I can easily “clone” the same look and feel too.
Does your law frm really need a website?
the simple answer is YES
In 2023, 70-80% of people check the internet when they are looking for an attorney even if the saw a ad or got a referral. The YELLOW PAGES ARE NOT ENOUG – nor is Social Media or TV or Radio or Billboards.
If you don’t have a website yet you will be losing business. Having a simple social media page like Facebook or Twitter is not enough either. You need your own website too.
Here are 5 more reasons to have your own website for your business.
1. Your own website makes you look professional and increases trust.
Most people don’t trust a business without a good website. A clean, modern page that is regularly updated and pops up in search engines is an instant credibility boost. Potential customers will trust you more and have all the information they need in one place. In a digital age, we expect businesses to have a web presence.
Even the smallest local business or organization needs a website–from a simple one page site for a mom and pop shop to a full website for a chain store.
Anyone can easily create a Facebook page or an Instagram account with fake data, your name/handle, and the profiles may look identical to yours. So, a professional business website legitimizes your company in ways no other social media channels would.
And if you don’t have a business and you’re considering creating a place for your portfolio, to show off your work, or something that represents yourself to send to recruiters when looking for a job – there’s not a more professional way to stand out from the crowd than having a personal website.
2. A business website will bring you more customers and increase conversions.
Well-optimized websites can pop up on the first page of Google search attracting new customers that weren’t looking specifically for you but were just researching a topic.
There’s a much bigger chance of someone ‘stumbling upon’ your website than a social media profile. Also, comparing you and any competing business or offer is easier when all the parties involved have a pro website.
If you invest in Google Ads or Facebook Ads, you can direct the traffic straightway to your website. On the page, your leads will have all the details to make an informed purchase, and a call-to-action to motivate them. Pages with built-in popup forms and web push notifications encourage website visitors to stay in touch and come back.
Adding contact forms and chats to a website.
Adding contact forms and a live chat to a website.
A website is available 24/7, every day of the year, from anywhere around the globe – that makes your business stay on customer’s minds even after business hours. Websites broaden your reach, and promote you without a break.
3. Creating your own website is much easier and less expensive than you expect.
A typical 5-page website costs from $500 to $1,000 depending on the features that you need. It ccould n consist of these pages:
- Home page with a large banner image of your business or product
- About us page with photos and biographies of your staff
- Product or service pages with images and descriptions
- Testimonial page with comments from happy customers
- Contact page with a contact form and Google map
Additionally, you could sell products with WooCommerce.
4. A website gives you full control over our message.
There are two sides to this reason. The first is your freedom of expression on a website. You can’t customize your social media presence to the same extent. All your assets have to be the same format as everybody else’s. If you really want to stand out, a website is the answer.
The absolute design freedom gives you an opportunity to present your brand in a unique way and showcase its voice and personality.
The control over your image on a webpage isn’t only about the graphics and layout. You decide what to put out there, so if you have any cool online reviews, customer testimonials, videos, etc., they can all share the space on your site.
If you have a gallery or a portfolio, this is also a chance to display it in a creative way. You can redesign and change anything on a website any time you want.
5. Websites are the center of all marketing efforts.
A website can be the first place where potential customers interact with you and learn about your business.
It can also be where they land on last, to make a purchase, because they were redirected from an email, a Facebook ad or an Instagram post.
Maybe they want to receive your emails, and that’s why they visit your site – to sign up.
Someone driving by your facilities clicks the pin on Google Maps, which directs them to your website with pricing or menu.
They might have typed your URL into their browser from a physical business card. Or, after watching your YouTube video they ‘clicked the link in the description below’ to get a coupon code for your new online course.
All your marketing efforts, no matter if your business is operating online or offline, should sprout from and lead to your own, stunning and informative webpage.
Campaigns are also easier to manage when everything is interconnected and the common denominator is a website. So, having a website is a priority and the first step to success.
Your new website won’t just look great, it will boost your online presence, drive more sales, and enable your business to go further than ever before.
Get it Right the First Time.
Websites are a powerful form of interactive marketing. Because of that, every choice from layout to functionality can make or break how your visitors interact with it—ultimately determining if they’ll use your services or head back to Google to continue their search.
Your website and marketing will be looked at as a whole, along with your business, niche, competition, and goals for success.
The Web Design Process.
1. Research and Planning.
THE FOUNDATION OF EVERY SUCCESSFUL WEBSITE
Together, we’ll take a look at what makes your business unique, your market demographic, competitors, and begin planning how your new website will be used to reach your goals.
Some of the questions we’ll answer in this phase are…
- How can your website rank higher than your competitors?
- How to best help visitors navigate your website?
- What content will your website need?
- Does your website need to comply with Privacy Laws?
- 2. Design & Development.
FAR MORE THAN SURFACE LEVEL
A website that looks good is nice to have, but a website that generates leads and looks good is much much more valuable. In this phase your website will begin to take shape, its content will begin to fill out its pages and we’ll focus on…
- Optimizing your website for both humans and search engines
- Ensuring the design & layout is intuitive and easy to use
- Making sure your website displays correctly regardless of screen size
- Strategically place calls-to-action to maximize your conversion rate
3. Post Launch & Ongoing Success.
WHAT HAPPENS AFTER YOUR WEBSITE HAS LAUNCHED?
When it comes time to launch your website you’ll have the knowledge and tools to get the most out of it. Rather than hope and guesswork you’ll have access to training materials, ongoing guidance, and new ways interact with your ideal customers.
Once your site is online it will be…
- A powerful marketing hub for your business
- An effective tool for tracking your marketing efforts and calculating your ROI
- An easy way for you to effectively communicate your value proposition to your customers
- An indispensable sales tool that drives new sales 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year

SEO That Goes Beyond the Basics
Your website will have Search Engine Optimization (SEO) implemented that uses best practices, and never any outdated techniques that don’t work anymore or worse; get your site penalized.
Easily Track Your Success
By understanding how visitors move through your website, what content is most viewed, and the goals of your visitors, we’re able to fine tune your messaging, layout, and content to continuously improve your website.
Get Ahead of Your Competition
Your competitor’s websites will be audited to determine their positioning, content strength, and learn where you can capitalize on their omissions or shortcomings.
Help Create an Accessible Internet
The Americans with Disabilities Act may apply to your business’ website and it will be designed to comply with these laws. By building websites that are accessible to everyone we help to build an open internet for everyone—and protect your business from potential lawsuits in the process.
Protect Yourself From Potential Lawsuits
Chances are, your new website is legally required to have Privacy Policy and Terms of Service pages. I will help you navigate these privacy laws and, if you don’t have a lawyer to draft these documents, I have partners who specialize in just that!
More Flexable than DIY Solutions
While do-it-yourself website builders like Wix, Squarespace, and Weebly enable you to quickly publish a website, they have limited tools and businesses often quickly outgrow them. Your website will be built to enable to you scale it as your business grows.

No Unnecessary Jargon
Jargon can be confusing, especially when it comes to web design. This makes choosing the right designer more difficult as it’s often used to impress rather than inform. I try to steer clear of tech jargon—unless you want the nitty-gritty.

When I take on a client one of the factors taken into consideration is whether you’ll make a return on your investment. This balance keeps both my clients and myself happy.
