Solicitor websites that win instructions.
A prospective client judges your firm in about eight seconds, on a phone, usually while something has gone badly wrong in their life. The site has to look like a firm worth instructing, publish what the SRA requires, and take the enquiry without leaving client detail sitting in a shared inbox.
What a solicitor's website actually needs
A page for every practice area
Conveyancing, probate, family, employment and personal injury are separate markets with separate buyers and separate price expectations. One Services page listing all of them ranks for none of them.
SRA Transparency Rules, built in properly
Price and service information published as real pages for the regulated areas, not a PDF buried three clicks down, with the SRA digital badge installed and verifying. Presented well it sells; presented as a tick box it just sits there.
Fee earner profile pages
Individual solicitor bios rank for name searches and carry more weight than any agency-written firm copy. They are also the page a referrer forwards before making an introduction.
Secure, conflict-checked enquiries
Encrypted forms and a routing rule so the conflict check happens before anyone replies, rather than after a fee earner has already given an opinion.
Straight into your case management
Enquiries pushed into Clio, LEAP or Actionstep instead of retyped. Retyping is where matters go missing and where data protection slips happen.
Copy that will not attract a regulator
No guarantees of outcome and no success-rate claims you cannot evidence. Persuasive without handing anyone a reason to complain.
What most solicitor websites get wrong
Transparency treated as a compliance chore
The required price and service information is the single most-read thing on a law firm site, because it is what the client actually came for. Hiding it in a PDF wastes the one piece of content with guaranteed demand.
Eleven practice areas on one page
A conveyancing client and an employment tribunal client have nothing in common except your letterhead. Shared pages mean you compete for neither search.
Enquiry forms that email plain text to a shared inbox
Client confidential information, unencrypted, readable by whoever has the inbox open. It is also the fastest way to miss a conflict.
Stock photography of handshakes and gavels
Gavels are not used in English courts. Clients notice, and so do the firms you want referrals from.
What good looks like.
Perfect for you if…
Good to know.
What does a solicitor website cost?
£5,000 to £12,000 for a firm with six to twelve practice area pages, fee earner profiles and secure enquiry handling. Multi-office firms with a knowledge library and case management integration run £15,000 upward.
Will it meet the SRA Transparency Rules?
We build the price and service information into proper pages for the regulated areas and install the SRA digital badge so it verifies. You supply the figures and the service descriptions, because under the rules they have to be yours.
Can enquiries go straight into our case management system?
Yes. Clio, LEAP and Actionstep all support it. We route the enquiry so the conflict check happens before a fee earner replies.
Can we publish client testimonials?
Yes, with consent and without implying a guaranteed outcome. In sensitive areas such as family and crime we normally recommend matter-type testimonials rather than named individuals.
How long does it take?
Eight to twelve weeks. Partner review of the practice area copy is almost always the longest step, so we front-load it and write in the order your fee earners can realistically approve.
We build for these too.
