Industry
Your prospective clients are navigating one of the most personal decisions they'll ever make. They're not searching for legal jargon. They're searching for someone they can trust with their family's future.
Services
The full set of services we build for estate planning law firms. Every engagement starts with a conversation about what your practice actually needs.
A retiring business owner, a Gen X adult child helping aging parents, and a couple with a special needs child all land on your site with different concerns. We build sites that speak to all of them while projecting the credibility that earns a consultation request, and we integrate with Clio, Smokeball, LawPay, and Calendly along the way.
"Estate planning attorney near me" sees around 49,500 searches a month. "Powers of attorney" pulls 110,000. We build the technical foundation and the educational content depth that lets your firm compete for both the hiring-intent searches and the research-stage traffic that builds trust before the call.
Estate and probate clicks average around $7.92, well below the $40-$120+ range for personal injury or family law. We build campaigns around hiring-intent terms, filter out informational queries with negative keywords, and pair every ad with a landing page built for consultation requests.
Your intake forms carry sensitive family financial details before any attorney-client relationship exists. We handle plugin updates, daily backups, security hardening, and uptime monitoring so your site never becomes a liability conversation.
Estate planning firms serve an older client base that disproportionately relies on screen readers, larger text settings, and keyboard navigation. Every site we build meets WCAG 2.1 AA from day one.

Overview
Estate planning is not a commodity search. People researching wills, trusts, and Medicaid planning are in the middle of hard conversations about aging, disability, death, and family dynamics. A generic law firm website with a stock photo of a gavel does nothing to earn that conversation, no matter how low the cost per click is.
State bar advertising rules add real complexity. No results guarantees, carefully worded testimonial disclaimers, no misleading specialization claims. Marketing for this vertical has to be compliant by default, not patched in after the fact.
Getting found is only half the problem. Getting a potential client to trust you enough to schedule a consultation is the other half, and that work happens on the page, not in the ad budget.

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 testimonial disclaimers or an intake flow rebuild need to be right on the first pass.
Every project runs through a structured process and closes with a 75+ point quality audit before launch. No estate planning firm site ships without it, including verified disclaimer placement, accessibility, and form function.
After launch, you get ongoing care plans and real support whenever you need us. The same team that built your estate planning site is still the team answering your tickets a year later.
We don't split attention across five platforms. Depth beats breadth, and we've seen nearly every scenario a WordPress site can throw at us, from Clio integrations to seminar registration builds to multi-attorney bio architecture.
Why us
We write copy that respects ABA Model Rules 7.1-7.4, avoids results-guarantee language, and includes the testimonial disclaimer scaffolding your jurisdiction likely requires. You shouldn't have to edit agency-written copy to stay ethical.
Estate planning clients research before they call. We build sites and content strategies that meet them at the "what is a living trust" stage and walk them toward scheduling a consultation, not just a homepage with a phone number.
Clio, Smokeball, PracticePanther, MyCase, Lawmatics, LawPay, Calendly, and Gravity Forms for conflict-check intake. We've done these integrations before and know where the friction points are.
Building websites since 2002 means we've worked through every platform shift, algorithm update, and accessibility standard change. We're not learning on your project.

Good to know
We work with law firms across multiple practice areas, and estate planning is one of the verticals we know well. Our team understands the compliance environment, including ABA Model Rules 7.1-7.4, state bar advertising requirements, and testimonial disclaimer rules, plus the specific tools estate planning firms run on. You won't spend time onboarding us on the basics.
We build compliance in from the start. That means no results-guarantee language, appropriate testimonial disclaimers on any client quotes, no misleading specialization claims, and review of ad copy against the rules before anything goes live. We're not attorneys and we don't provide legal advice on compliance, but we flag issues and work with you to resolve them before publishing.
Yes. We regularly integrate estate planning firm websites with Clio, Smokeball, PracticePanther, MyCase, Lawmatics, LawPay, Calendly, Gravity Forms (including conflict-check intake forms), and Mailchimp. If you use a platform not on that list, we'll evaluate it during scoping.
For estate planning firms, meaningful organic ranking improvements typically show up within 4-6 months on targeted terms, with stronger momentum building through months 9-12. Competitive terms like "estate planning attorney near me" in major markets take longer. We set realistic expectations upfront and show you progress on intermediate metrics while domain authority builds.
It starts with a 30-minute strategy call where we spend time understanding your practice areas, your current website, your competitive market, and what you've tried before. From there we scope the right combination of services. Most estate planning firms we work with combine a website redesign with an ongoing SEO retainer, sometimes adding PPC once the site is in place.
Yes. We've built websites and run marketing programs for solo estate planning attorneys, boutique estate and elder law firms, and multi-attorney practices. The size of your firm affects scoping and budget, but not the quality of work or the seniority of your point of contact.
Very important. Estate planning is a local decision for the vast majority of clients. Terms like "estate planning attorney near me," "trust lawyer near me," and "probate attorney [city]" drive significant search volume. Your Google Business Profile, local citations, and location-specific content all contribute to appearing in the map pack and the top organic results in your market.
Most agencies that serve law firms are general digital agencies with a law firm client or two. We're WordPress specialists with deep experience in professional service firms, including the compliance environment estate planning attorneys navigate. We manage 800+ WordPress sites, so the operational side of running a reliable, secure, fast website is something we've systemized over more than two decades.
