Industry
Solo attorneys and small law firms face a different set of pressures than large practices. You are competing against firms with dedicated marketing staff, large ad budgets, and years of accumulated domain authority. At the same time, your prospective clients are making fast, high-stakes decisions, often from their phones, often under stress. Your website and marketing need to meet them exactly where they are.
Services
The full set of services we build for attorneys businesses. Every engagement starts with a conversation about what your business actually needs.
Prospective clients decide in seconds whether to trust a firm. We build attorney sites that load fast, show real attorney photos, keep intake forms short, and route new matters straight into Clio or MyCase.
Legal SEO isn't just content. Google treats law firm sites as YMYL, so authority and depth matter. We build practice-area pages that actually rank, and we structure your content for both Google and AI search.
Personal injury clicks can hit $150+. We build attorney PPC campaigns matched to your practice area economics, with landing pages built for consultation bookings, not just clicks. Management fees stay separate from ad spend.
Your intake forms carry confidential communications. We handle plugin updates, daily backups, security hardening, and uptime monitoring so your site never becomes a bar ethics conversation.
Attorney sites are among the most-targeted for ADA lawsuits. Every site we build meets WCAG 2.1 AA from day one, and we can audit and remediate existing sites too.

Overview
Legal is the most competitive category in paid search. Average CPC in the legal vertical runs around $8.58, and personal injury terms in major markets regularly hit $50 to $150 per click. If your site isn't converting those visitors into intake submissions, you're paying premium prices for traffic that disappears.
The median law firm site converts at 2.2% to 4.8%. Top-performing firms with well-structured, intent-matched sites hit 7% or higher. That gap -- 2% vs. 7% on the same ad budget -- can mean dozens of extra client inquiries per month.
For solo attorneys and small firms, the margin for waste is thin. Every dollar of ad spend and every hour of content work has to earn its keep. That's why the site has to be right before anything else scales.

Who we serve
Why us
You talk to a senior practitioner from day one, not a junior account coordinator routing messages. Strategy, scope, and the hard calls come from someone who has actually done the work. That matters when you need bar-compliant copy reviewed on a deadline or an intake form rebuilt before a campaign launch.
Every project runs through a structured process and closes with a 75+ point quality audit before launch. No attorney site ships without it. That includes verifying compliance disclaimer placement, accessibility, form functionality, and mobile performance.
After launch, you get ongoing care plans and real support whenever you need us. The same team that built your attorney website is still the team answering your tickets a year later. You do not get handed off to a support tier that has never seen your project.
We do not split attention across five platforms. Depth beats breadth, and we have seen nearly every scenario a WordPress site can throw at us, from complex intake form builds to Clio integrations to multi-practice-area architecture.
Why us
We write copy that respects ABA Model Rules 7.1-7.4, avoids guaranteed-result language, and includes the disclaimer scaffolding your jurisdiction likely requires. You should not have to edit agency-written copy to stay ethical.
A beautiful website that buries the contact form is a missed opportunity. We design intake flows with conditional logic, short field counts, mobile-first forms, and Lawmatics or Clio connectivity so leads route correctly from the first submission.
We have worked in high-CPC environments where $100+ per click is the norm. We know how to structure campaigns and content so the math works at your case values, not just at aggregate averages.
Law firm sites need active maintenance. Plugins go stale, payment integrations need updates, and security requires ongoing attention. We treat your site as a live system, not a one-time project.

Good to know
Most of our attorney clients are solo practitioners or small partnerships. That's who this page is built for. You don't need a large-firm budget, and we're not going to pitch a $50,000 enterprise build when a $8,000 site will do the job.
We don't write copy that promises specific outcomes or implies guaranteed results. ABA Model Rule 7.1 prohibits false or misleading communications, specialist claims need certification, and testimonials often need disclaimer language.
We build the disclaimer scaffolding in from the start: confidentiality notices on contact forms, result disclaimers next to case outcomes, and accessible placement of required disclosures. We still recommend your own review before launch, since bar rules vary by state.
A focused project for a solo or small-firm attorney typically runs 6-10 weeks from kickoff to launch. That includes discovery, design, content development, intake form configuration, integration setup, QA, and accessibility review. Complex projects with large content libraries, custom intake logic, or multi-practice deep architecture take longer. We scope every project individually before committing to a timeline.
The most common integrations for attorney sites we build include Clio or MyCase for case management, Lawmatics for intake automation and CRM, LawPay for secure online payment, Gravity Forms with conditional logic for matter routing, and Ngage for live chat. We connect these to your WordPress site via APIs and Zapier workflows where needed, and we test every connection before launch.
SEO retainers for attorneys run $750-$5,000/month, depending on practice areas, geographic scope, and content production. Single-location practices with one or two focus areas sit at the lower end. Multi-practice or competitive urban markets sit at the upper end.
Not ready for a monthly retainer? We also offer a one-time SEO optimization at $1,500 covering technical fixes, on-page optimization, metadata, internal linking, and a prioritized roadmap.
It depends heavily on your practice area. Personal injury is the most expensive vertical in paid search, with clicks regularly costing $50-$150+ in competitive markets. Criminal defense, family law, and estate planning run meaningfully lower.
Branding campaigns can start around $500/month. Lead-gen in competitive areas requires more. We separate management fees from ad spend so you always know what's going where.
Yes. Every site we build meets WCAG 2.1 AA standards, and we can audit and remediate existing sites. Attorney websites are frequently targeted in ADA web accessibility litigation, which makes compliance both a practical and an ethical priority. We build accessibility in from the beginning rather than bolt it on after launch.
Yes. We write practice area pages, attorney bios, FAQ content, and supporting blog articles. Our writers understand the constraints of legal advertising: no guaranteed-result language, accurate descriptions of services, and appropriate qualification of any results-related content. We write content that is designed to rank and convert, not just to fill pages.
