For law firms
Most law-firm sites lead with 'compassionate, dedicated, experienced' and bury the case history three clicks deep. Personal-injury and immigration clients want to see numbers and outcomes before they decide to call.
Where these sites lose customers
Every other firm says they are dedicated and experienced. None of those words convince a client. A short list of recent settlements (with figures, where ethics permit), and a clear practice area focus, beats an essay every time.
Personal-injury and immigration clients call. They do not fill out forms first. The phone number belongs in the header, in the hero, and at the bottom of every section. A contact form is fine as a secondary path, not the primary one.
Personal injury, immigration, family, and real estate are different searches with different intent. One page that lists all your practice areas ranks for none of them. Each area gets its own page with its own hero, its own results, and its own FAQ.
Under the hood
The mechanics that decide whether a site earns calls or just sits there.
01Top of the map
‘Roofer near me’ wins your next customer. We build to rank in the local map pack.
78%of local-service searches happen on a phone.
02On the phone first
Most find you on a phone. The whole site has to feel right at arm’s length.
03Loads before they leave
Half of mobile visitors leave a slow site before it loads.

04Yours to keep
No retainers, no system you can’t log into. When we’re done, you have everything.
How we’d approach a rebuild
A firm rebuild puts the phone number in the header, builds out one page per practice area, and writes case results as plain text within the rules of your provincial law society. Adjectives get cut. Numbers and outcomes go up.
Note
The Halloran & Reid page in the concept showcase is a concept rebuild, not a paid client win. It exists to show how we think about the industry. Real client work lands on the work page as it ships.
