Should each practice area have its own page?

Yes, if you want to rank for those searches. A dedicated page for "family law" or "personal injury" gives Google something specific to show when someone searches for that topic in Jacksonville. A single page listing everything doesn't carry the same weight.

I practice in multiple counties. Can the site reflect that?

Definitely. We can build out content targeting Cherokee County, Smith County, Anderson County — wherever you take cases. Each area can have its own page or section, which also helps with local search visibility.

What if I want to add client testimonials?

Testimonials are one of the most effective things a law firm website can have. We'll build a section for them, and you can add new ones as you get permission from clients. Just be mindful of your state bar's rules on testimonials — Texas has specific guidelines, and we'll set things up to stay within them.

Can prospective clients book a consultation directly through the site?

We can set up a consultation request form that collects their info and sends it to you. Whether you want to call it a "free consultation" or just an inquiry is up to you. Some attorneys prefer to screen requests before committing to a meeting, and the form works well for that.

I'm a solo practitioner. Will the site look professional enough?

Solo firms actually have an advantage online — you can present yourself as approachable and accessible in a way that bigger firms can't. A well-built site with a strong bio, clear practice areas, and a direct contact form can feel more trustworthy than a twelve-attorney firm with a corporate-looking site that feels impersonal.

A New Website Won't Win Your Cases — But It'll Bring Them In

A website won't make you a better lawyer. It won't file your motions or prep your witnesses. What it will do is make sure the people in Jacksonville who need a lawyer can find you, trust you enough to call, and actually get through to your office without friction. That's the job of a website. Nothing more, nothing less.

What a Law Firm Website Needs to Do in a Town Like Jacksonville

Jacksonville isn't a huge legal market. Cherokee County has a courthouse, a handful of firms, and a lot of people who'd rather ask a friend for a recommendation than search online. And that's fine — referrals are great. But even referred clients are going to look you up before they call.

So what do they find? If it's a website that hasn't been touched since it was built, with a stock photo of a gavel and a paragraph about your "commitment to justice," that's doing you harm. Not dramatic harm. Quiet harm. The kind where someone looks at your site, feels unsure, and calls the other attorney whose site felt more trustworthy.

Your practice areas need to be clear and specific. Not just "criminal defense" — but DWI, assault charges, drug possession, juvenile cases, whatever you actually handle. Someone searching "DWI lawyer Jacksonville TX" should land on a page that talks about DWI defense specifically. Not a list of twelve practice areas with one sentence each.

Attorney bios matter more for lawyers than almost any other profession. Your credentials, your experience, where you went to school, which courts you practice in — people want to know who they're hiring. A good bio doesn't read like a resume. It reads like an introduction.

And then there's the contact form. For a law firm, this is really a consultation request. Make it simple: name, what kind of case, how to reach them, anything else they want to share. Keep it short. Someone filling this out is probably stressed and doesn't want a twenty-field form.

What This Costs and What You Get — Straight Up

A clean law firm website with practice area pages, attorney bios, a consultation form, and proper SEO structure starts at $1,500. That's about ten pages, built from scratch, done in about a week. If you want something simpler — a few pages covering the basics — that starts at $300 and takes a few days.

We don't use templates or website builders. Your site gets written as actual code, which means it loads fast, works on phones, and isn't dragging around a bunch of unnecessary junk that slows everything down. You own it outright.

SEO for lawyers is competitive, even in smaller markets. The good news is that in Jacksonville, you're not competing against five hundred firms — you're competing against a few, and if your site is built right, you've got a real shot at showing up when someone searches for legal help in Cherokee County. We build the technical foundation for that from day one.

Hosting and maintenance starts at $50 a month. Updates, security, backups, uptime. If you want ongoing SEO work — building content, improving rankings over time, targeting specific practice areas — that starts at $750 a month and is a separate service.

Real Talk About Law Firm Websites

Look, we get it. You went to law school, not marketing school. The idea of spending time thinking about your website probably ranks somewhere between "fun" and "root canal." But here's the thing — you don't have to think about it. That's what we're for.

You tell us your practice areas, send us your bio info, let us know how you want consultations to come in, and we handle the rest. The design, the code, the SEO setup, making sure it works on every device. We'll ask you to review it before it goes live. Beyond that, your involvement is minimal.

The clients who find you through your website are often the ones who need you most. They're not connected enough to get a referral. They're searching at midnight because they just got arrested, or they're going through a divorce, or they got hurt at work and don't know what to do next. Your website is the thing standing between that person and your phone number. It should be good at its job.

If you're still using a site that was built years ago — or worse, if you don't have one at all and you're relying entirely on a Yelp page or a Google Business Profile — you're leaving cases on the table. Not because your website can do what you do. But because your website is the reason they call you instead of the other attorney down the road.
