Websites and marketingfor family law firms.
People contact a family lawyer at one of the worst moments of their lives. I design the site, build it, then run the search, email and ads that keep the enquiries coming.

How family law firms win customers online, and what I would put in place to win more of them.
How customers choose
People contact a family lawyer at one of the hardest moments of their lives: divorce, separation, child arrangements. They want someone competent, but they also want warmth, discretion and clarity about costs. A cold, corporate website makes an already difficult step harder.
What the website has to do
The site should use warm, plain language on pages for divorce, finances, children, mediation and other services. Confidential enquiry forms, clear explanations of fees and the first meeting, and profiles that show the people behind the firm all help. Information about what to do first can be genuinely useful to someone in crisis.
What keeps it busy
Fast, discreet follow-up is essential, and so is respecting that some people are not ready to proceed straight away. Helpful content about family law processes ranks well and builds trust, and reviews that mention compassion and clarity reassure new clients.
Where it usually leaks
The places family law firms most often lose a customer who was ready to buy.
- The site reads as cold and corporate when clients need reassurance.
- The site describes the firm instead of answering the question the client arrived with.
- Enquiries land in a shared inbox and wait days for a reply.
- Practice areas share one page, so none of them ranks.
Where I’d start
A page per practice area that answers the client’s real question, a short qualifying enquiry form, and a same-day automated acknowledgement.
- Warm, plain-English service pages
- Confidential enquiry form
- Fixed fee explanations
- Fast, discreet follow-up
What your customers search
Tap one to run that exact search on Google and see who shows up where you are. If it is not you, each of these deserves a page that answers it directly.
Questionsworth asking.
- How much does a website for family law firms cost?
- It depends on the project, so there is no rate card. The number comes from how many pages and services the site covers, whether it needs booking, payments or integrations, and whether you want the marketing run after launch. After a 30-minute call you get a written scope and a quote, usually within two working days, and I will tell you honestly what your budget can do well.
- Do you work with family law firms anywhere in the world?
- Yes. I work with anyone, anywhere, fully remotely. Calls are booked at a time that suits us both, and everything else runs in writing, so the distance rarely matters. I have delivered for clients in the United States, the United Kingdom, Australia and France.
- How do professional firms show up in AI search answers?
- By publishing clear answers to the questions clients actually ask, on pages that can be read without JavaScript, with the author named and the firm properly marked up. Assistants quote sources they can identify and check.
- Can the enquiry form screen out work we do not take?
- Yes. A few short questions at the start can route each enquiry to the right person, or politely point it elsewhere, before anyone spends time on a call.
