Services / Web Redesign
A better website. A considered transition.
Bring your law firm’s website up to date without losing sight of the pages, enquiries and integrations it already supports.

Start with what the existing site tells us.
An outdated appearance is one reason to redesign. Unclear services, difficult mobile navigation or a content system your team cannot maintain can be stronger reasons. We define the problem before specifying a replacement.
With access to your analytics and Search Console, the review can identify established landing pages and enquiry journeys. Without that access, a crawl and content inventory can still document what exists, but they cannot tell us which pages bring qualified instructions.
Keep, improve or consolidate.
Content decisions
An inventory of existing pages with a decision for each: retain, rewrite, combine or remove. Useful legal information is checked with your team, not discarded because it looks old.
Design improvements
Updated templates, readable typography, clearer navigation and contact journeys that work on smaller screens. Existing brand assets are retained or changed by agreement.
Migration plan
A route map for changed URLs, canonicals, internal links, metadata and assets. Redirects point to the closest useful replacement, with checks for chains and missing destinations.
Launch and recovery checks
A documented release plan, backups where supported, and checks for key pages, forms, tracking and indexing controls. Monitoring responsibilities are agreed before launch.
A practical example of a migration decision.
Suppose a firm has three pages describing the same divorce service and a separate financial-settlement guide. We would first compare their enquiries, queries and substance. The service pages might be consolidated, while the guide keeps its own purpose and links to the service.
Redirecting every old page to the homepage would remove that useful relationship. Keeping every duplicate simply to preserve a page count would leave the original confusion in place. The decision should follow the content and available search evidence.
Agree the responsibilities before launch.
We need a clear owner for domain access, hosting, forms, analytics and legal approval. If another supplier controls any of these, the handover needs to be part of the schedule.
Your proposal defines the pages being rewritten, the platform being retained or replaced, redirects, launch support and any ongoing maintenance. If the underlying site works well, a smaller design and content improvement may be enough.
Use the website migration SEO handover guide and downloadable checklist to agree responsibilities with your team before launch.

Your questions, answered.
Will a redesign affect our Google rankings?
It can. Changes to URLs, content, internal links or rendering can affect how search engines understand the site. We plan continuity checks and redirects where required, but cannot guarantee unchanged rankings.
Do we need to change our website platform?
Not automatically. We assess whether your current platform supports the agreed design, editing, performance and integration needs before recommending a move.
Can you keep our existing content?
Yes, when it remains relevant and accurate. We review it page by page, retain useful facts and URLs, and identify content that needs your firm’s approval before it is updated.
