Website Design for criminal law firms

Website design plans and builds a site around how your customers choose and contact you, from the page structure to the details that build trust. For criminal law firms, that means getting offence type pages, urgent contact and court process information right, because people charged with an offence and their families want to call for urgent help or book a consultation without hunting for information.

What your customers are trying to do

People charged with an offence and their families want to call for urgent help or book a consultation.

A criminal law firm website usually has to handle urgent contact for people in custody or charged, consultation booking and confidential matter intake.

Urgent contact for people in custody or charged: some matters cannot wait until business hours. State when urgent calls are answered and give one clear number.

Consultation booking: non-urgent matters can be booked ahead of a court date. Ask for the next court date so urgency is clear.

Confidential matter intake: charge and court details help prepare the consultation. Keep the form short and confidential, with charge and court details only.
