Law Firm Web Design That Converts
Custom law firm web design and development for attorneys, built to earn a stranger’s trust in the first thirty seconds and turn that trust into a call.
What a law firm site has to get right
Practice-area pages that answer the question
Someone searching for a DUI lawyer wants a DUI page, not a list of everything you do. A real page per practice area answers their question and ranks for it.
Credentials and results up front
Bar admissions, case results, reviews and attorney bios where people can see them, so a stranger can tell yours is a real practice worth calling.
Intake that is obvious
Click-to-call on every phone screen and a short consultation form, because people look for a lawyer at stressful moments, often late at night.
Accessible, secure and fast
SSL, mobile layouts and accessibility considered from the start. ADA website complaints are filed against law firms too.
People compare three or four firms before calling one. The first thirty seconds on your site decide which name they pick.
Law firm website design examples
Three sample homepages we designed to show how we approach law firm websites. A personal injury firm, a family law practice and a business firm need very different first impressions, so each one starts from how its clients choose a lawyer.
Sample design · Personal injury firm
Hartwell & Vance
Built for the phone. A free case review form and a call button in the hero, practice areas one tap away, and Spanish-language support called out up front.
Sample design · Family law firm
Marlow Family Law
Built for people in a hard moment. Calm design, plain-English answers and a three-step “what to expect” path before anyone has to pick up the phone.
Sample design · Business and estate planning firm
Caldwell & Ruiz
Built for established clients. Practice groups, articles that show expertise, and a client portal and invoice payment in the header.
These are sample designs for fictional law firms, made to show our work. They are not client websites.
What we build for law firms
Every site covers these essentials, with SEO built in from the first page.
Custom, conversion-focused design
Five to ten pages designed around your practice areas, reviews and results, not a stock legal template.
Practice-area and location pages
A real page for every practice area and location you serve, which is what wins competitive legal searches.
SEO from the ground up
Clean site structure, fast load times and structured data, so Google understands what you do and where.
Consultation and intake forms
Short forms and click-to-call on every page, routed to whoever answers for the firm.
Secure hosting and updates
SSL, cloud hosting, backups and updates handled for you, so the site stays fast and online.
Monthly content updates
One content update a month included, for new case results, bios or practice areas, or we train your staff to do it.
Intake, payments and the tools your firm uses
A law firm website is part of your intake process, not a brochure. We work with all of the tools below, and when an off-the-shelf tool does not fit, we build what you need.
Intake and case management
Consultation forms and booking that ask the right questions for each practice area and send new matters straight to your intake team or case management software.
- Clio
- MyCase
- PracticePanther
- Smokeball
- Filevine
- CASEpeer
- Litify
- CosmoLex
- Rocket Matter
- Actionstep
- Lawmatics
- Clio Grow
- Lead Docket
- Law Ruler
- Calendly
Or automations and custom software built around your process.
Calls, chat and follow-up
Click-to-call on every page, call tracking so you know which pages bring in cases, and a chat assistant that answers after hours.
- CallRail
- Intaker
- Smith.ai
- Ruby
- Ngage
- ApexChat
Or an AI chat assistant trained on your practice areas.
Payments, e-signatures and client portals
Let clients pay invoices and retainers online, sign documents and check on their matter without calling the office.
- LawPay
- Clio Payments
- Stripe
- DocuSign
- Adobe Acrobat Sign
Or a secure client portal built for your firm.
What should a law firm website include?
People compare a few firms before they call one. These are the pages and features we plan into every law firm site so yours answers their questions first. For more ideas, see our guide to getting more leads from a lawyer website.
Practice-area pages
One clear page for each type of case you take, written for the questions clients actually ask.
Attorney bios
Real photos, credentials, bar admissions and a sense of who each lawyer is.
Free consultation or case review form
Short, mobile-friendly and specific to the practice area.
Click-to-call and text
A phone number that is always one tap away on a phone.
Reviews and case results
Shown with the disclaimers your state bar requires.
Location and contact details
Office address, map and hours that match your Google Business Profile.
Client resources and FAQs
Plain-English guides that answer early questions and build trust.
Online payments and client portal
Invoices, retainers and documents handled online.
Accessibility and speed
Readable on any device, quick to load, with accessibility considered from the start.
Language options
Spanish or other language pages when your clients need them.
Practice areas we build for
We design for criminal defense, family law, personal injury, immigration, estate planning and corporate practices. The differences matter: a personal injury firm competing on paid search needs fast landing pages and click-to-call, while an estate planning practice benefits more from guides that build trust over time.
Legal is one of the most competitive categories in search, so the groundwork isn’t optional. Read the law firm tools worth knowing about and how lawyer website optimization brings in more leads.
Website builder, legal marketing package or custom law firm website?
Each option works for some firms. Here is an honest comparison to help you decide.
| DIY builder (Squarespace, Wix) | Legal marketing package | Custom site from Pure Code | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Who builds it | You or someone on staff | The vendor, from its templates | Our team, with your input |
| Design | Templates shared with many other sites | Legal templates shared with other firms | Designed around your firm and practice areas |
| Intake and integrations | Basic forms | Their own forms and tools | Connected to the software you choose, or custom built |
| Ownership | Tied to the builder | Check the contract: some packages keep the site if you leave | You own the site, domain and content |
| Ongoing help | Mostly self-service | Depends on the package | We maintain it and make updates for you |
| A good fit for | A new solo practice on a tight start-up budget | Firms that want a bundled marketing plan | Firms that want a site built around how their clients hire |
If your current site is on a package or a builder, we can move your pages, bios and practice-area content to a site you own.

Do you provide hosting, updates and support?
Yes. Secure cloud hosting, maintenance, content updates and site health checks, so your website stays secure and current.
Can you redesign my existing law firm website?
Yes. We modernize the design, improve speed and structure, and keep or redirect your existing page addresses so you don’t lose search traffic.
Can you connect our website to our case management software?
Yes. We work with Clio, MyCase, PracticePanther, Smokeball, Filevine, CASEpeer, Litify, CosmoLex, Rocket Matter, Actionstep, Lawmatics, Lead Docket, Law Ruler and others, so new consultation requests land where your team already works. If a tool does not have what you need, we can build it.
Can you add live chat or an after-hours intake assistant?
Yes. We can add a live chat service or an AI chat assistant trained on your practice areas that collects contact details and case basics when the office is closed.
Do you write practice-area pages and attorney bios?
Yes. We can write or edit practice-area pages, attorney bios and FAQs, working from interviews with your attorneys so the content sounds like your firm.
Do you build websites for solo attorneys and small firms?
Yes. Many of the firms we talk to are solo practices or small teams. We size the site to the firm, and it can grow as you add attorneys or practice areas.
Should my firm use a website builder or a legal marketing package?
A builder can work for a brand-new solo practice. Packages bundle a site with marketing, but read the contract to see who owns the site. Firms that want custom intake, integrations and full ownership usually do better with a custom site.
