Your website might look great. But if it’s not bringing in clients, something’s off.
Most law firm websites are built to impress other lawyers — not the people who actually need legal help. Let’s fix that.

❌ 1. It’s All About You

If your homepage starts with “Welcome to our law firm…” or lists your awards first, people tune out.

✅ Fix it: Start with their struggle.
Instead of: “We’ve been serving families since 1998.”
Try: “Feeling stuck in a stressful legal situation? We help you move forward with clarity and confidence.”

❌ 2. No Clear Next Step

Too many buttons (or none at all) = confusion.
Fix it: Pick one main goal and stick to it.
👉 “Book Your Clarity Call”

❌ 3. Too Much Legal Jargon

People don’t speak “lawyer.”
Fix it: Use plain, human language — like you’re talking to a friend.

❌ 4. It Doesn’t Build Trust

Saying “we’re trustworthy” isn’t enough.
Fix it: Use testimonials, photos, logos, and even a welcome video to build credibility fast.

❌ 5. Not Mobile-Friendly

If it’s slow or hard to use on a phone, people will bounce.
Fix it: Make sure it looks clean and works great on mobile.

Your Website Should Be a Conversation, Not a Resume

When your site talks to real people about their problems — and offers a clear next step — that’s when the magic happens.
