Someone looking for a lawyer is frightened, and they scan your site for one answer: do these people handle cases like mine? A firm's site earns the call by naming the situation in the client's own words, naming the attorney who will take it, and saying plainly what the first conversation involves. We build that for a fixed price, live within 24 hours of the moment you confirm the scope, and you pay only after you have seen it working.
A firm with three or four practice areas is a multi-page site: $175 to $350. One practice area on a single page runs $100 to $250. You get the exact number in fifteen minutes, and you pay nothing until the finished site is live.
People search for "who keeps the house" and "they served me papers," not for "domestic relations." Each practice area gets its own page that names the situation the way the client says it out loud, then explains what usually happens first.
Name, photo, bar admissions, and the kinds of matters that person actually handles. A stock photo of a handshake and a shelf of law books tells a worried client nothing about whether you have seen a case like theirs.
Most people put off calling because they assume the meter is already running. Say how long the first conversation takes, whether there is a charge, who they will speak to, and what documents to bring.
Hourly, flat fee, or contingency — state which one applies to which kind of matter, and when a retainer comes into it. You do not have to publish rates to take the fear of an unknown bill off the table.
Local searches are "divorce lawyer" plus a city, so the site lists the counties, towns, and courts you actually appear in. Your firm name, address, hours, and phone are marked up so map and search results point at the right office.
Some people cannot speak freely at home or at work, so the site offers a short written enquiry as well as a phone number that taps to call. The form carries the line that sending a message does not create an attorney-client relationship, and we keep the copy free of outcome promises and superlatives for your bar's advertising rules.
Something we built
Hartwell & Reed, Boston — four practice areas, an intake page that says which documents to bring, and the fee approach explained before anyone engages. $300, delivered in a day.
Open itLess than most people expect. Nothing has to be ready or polished — we write the words if you do not have them.
What you do and what you want a visitor to do on the site. That is enough for a fixed price. Everything else we ask as we go.
A logo, photos of your own work, a price list, your hours. If you have none of it, say so — the site is built either way.
You confirm the price and what is being built. Only then does the 24-hour clock start — not when you first said hello.
Everything on a single page: what you do, prices, the form or the phone number. Right for most small trades.
A page per service, per location, or per town you cover. Right when one page would bury half of what you offer.
Cart and card payments. Right when you sell things rather than book appointments.
You have a site, it looks dated or fails on phones. We keep what works and rebuild the rest.
Two sentences from you, a fixed price in fifteen minutes, a finished site the next day. You pay after you have seen it working — and if we miss the deadline, the agreement is cancelled and you owe nothing.
