Your Firm's Website is Losing You Cases Every Week
If you're a solicitor watching referrals dry up while your site loads like it's 2014, you're bleeding £40k+ annually to firms with faster checkouts.
We design and build high-performance websites for solicitors, barristers, and chambers across the UK. Fast, compliant, and built to convert enquiries.
Solicitor website design is the specialist practice of building websites for law firms, solicitors, and barristers' chambers that meet SRA transparency rules, convert visitors into client enquiries, and rank in local search results. It means actually understanding legal service areas, compliance obligations, and the trust signals prospective clients look for when they're choosing who to represent them. That last part matters more than most agencies realise.
Your Current Site May Be a Liability
Common gaps we find in nearly every audit.
What Your Website Could Look Like
Custom-designed for your industry. No templates. No stock photos.
How We Build This Right
Every safeguard, built in from Day 1.
SRA Transparency Rules
We build price and service information pages that meet SRA requirements from day one. No retrofitting, no guesswork -- compliance is baked into the information architecture before we write a line of code.
GDPR & Cookie Compliance
Privacy policies, cookie consent, and data handling are all built to ICO standards. Contact forms capture only what's actually needed, with proper consent flows throughout.
Accessibility (WCAG 2.2 AA)
Every site meets WCAG 2.2 AA standards -- correct heading structure, keyboard navigation, screen reader support. Legal services need to be accessible to everyone, full stop.
Local SEO Architecture
Schema markup for legal services, Google Business Profile integration, location-specific landing pages. We structure your site so Google understands your practice areas and where you operate -- which is what actually drives local rankings.
Core Web Vitals Performance
Sub-1.5-second load times on every page. Static generation means your site serves instantly from edge nodes across the UK. No WordPress bloat, no slow hosting, no excuses.
Conversion Analytics
Privacy-respecting analytics that track enquiry form submissions, phone calls, and page engagement. You see exactly which practice areas are driving leads -- not just traffic numbers that don't tell you anything useful.
What We Build
Purpose-built features for your industry.
Practice Area Pages
SEO-optimised service pages for each legal practice area, with structured data, clear CTAs, and internal linking that builds topical authority over time.
Team Profile System
Individual solicitor and barrister profiles managed through a headless CMS -- add or update team members yourself, no developer required.
Enquiry Funnels
Multi-step contact forms that qualify leads by practice area, urgency, and location before they reach your intake team. Fewer time-wasters, better leads.
Chambers Directory Integration
Structured profiles for barristers with practice areas, notable cases, and clerk contact details -- purpose-built for chambers, not adapted from a generic template.
Client Testimonials & Case Studies
Moderated review display with schema markup that surfaces star ratings directly in Google search results. That's the kind of visibility that builds trust before a client's even clicked your link.
Blog & Legal Insights
A headless CMS-powered blog with category filtering, author attribution, and automatic internal linking to relevant practice areas. Thought leadership that actually connects to the pages that convert.
Built on a Modern, Secure Stack
Our Development Process
From discovery to launch. Quality at every step.
Discovery & Audit
Week 1Here's how the process works. We start by auditing your current site against SRA requirements, Core Web Vitals, and competitor rankings. You get a detailed report with specific, actionable findings -- not vague recommendations.
Information Architecture
Week 2Then we map every practice area, team member, and location into a site structure built for both user journeys and search engines. Architecture first, design second.
Design & Prototyping
Weeks 3–4High-fidelity designs in Figma come next. You'll see the homepage, a practice area page, and a team profile before we write a single line of code. Nothing gets built blind.
Build & Content Migration
Weeks 5–7Then it's Next.js development with Sanity CMS. We migrate your existing content, optimise imagery, and implement all compliance features during the build -- not as an afterthought.
Launch & Support
Week 8Finally, deployment to Vercel's edge network, DNS cutover, 301 redirects from your old site, and 30 days of post-launch support. All included, no extras.
