Same information. A deliberate layout for each screen.

Illustrative layout. Try both views.

The first five seconds.

A beautiful site still has to answer these questions. Design begins with the reading task.

The first read.The matter.The firm.The next step.Answer the visitor’s first questions.

What do you handle?

Name the practice clearly. Give the visitor enough context to know whether they have reached the right firm for their problem.

Why this firm?

Show the attorneys, experience and evidence accurately. Make the important information easy to read rather than hiding it behind effects.

How do I reach you?

Keep calling and sending an inquiry distinct. Use useful button labels and a form that asks only for what the team needs to begin.

A useful page for each matter.

The design and the page map belong together. A series of attractive screens is not a complete website.

The main practice pages explain what the firm handles and how someone can take the next step. Supporting answers help with the narrower questions and lead back to the right practice.

The attorney pages, local information and contact path should fit that structure. Each important page gets a clear role. The navigation helps visitors choose without asking them to understand the site’s organisation.

Start with a map of the existing pages. Keep useful material, improve weak explanations and resolve overlaps before deciding what needs to be created.

How the search plan shapes the pages

Keep what earned its place.

A rebuild should carry the useful work forward. The migration plan is part of the design.

Useful old URLKeep it.Still usefulStill reachable.Changed addressMap the move.New destinationVerify the redirect.Every old address gets a decision.

Map the current site

Log the existing URLs, content and useful search history. Give every old address a destination in the plan.

Improve with care

Review the copy and hierarchy. Preserve valuable answers while making them easier to read and act on.

Verify the move

Check redirects, internal links, forms and phone use before the replacement goes live. Read the delivered pages, not just the build log.

The phone version gets its own attention.

The small-screen page is designed and checked as a real reading experience.

Read

Useful line lengths, readable type and a clear heading order. Important information should survive a small screen.

Choose

Navigation, menus and buttons should work with a finger and a keyboard. A visitor should always know what happens next.

Contact

Use clear labels and useful feedback. Test the submission, delivery and the person receiving it before calling the form ready.

Continue

Give the inquiry an owner and an agreed reply process. The website’s work does not end at a success message.

Before the rebuild.

Will our existing URLs stay?

The existing addresses are mapped before the build. Keep useful URLs wherever possible; agree and verify redirects where a change is necessary.

Who owns the website?

Your firm owns its website and accounts. Access and handover belong in the agreed scope.

How do you know the contact form works?

Test the form fields, validation, submission, notification delivery and the receiving team’s next step. A success message alone does not prove that an inquiry arrived.
