Law firm website: 7 elements that actually convert

Conversion 2026-02-08 8 min

1) A clear promise in 5 seconds

A visitor must immediately understand who you are, what you do, and what to do next. One sentence. One button. On mobile, that’s the difference between reading and bouncing.

  • Outcome‑oriented headline
  • Sub‑headline with location and client type
  • Single CTA: “Get a free mockup” or “Request a first call”

2) Proof before pitch

Reduce doubt first: proof, clarity, consistency. Premium design helps—but proof closes.

  • 3 measurable signals
  • 2 testimonials (with consent)
  • A sober portfolio

3) An Offers page that sells without pressure

Benefits → deliverables → process → FAQ → CTA.

  • Who it’s for (and who it’s not)
  • Timelines and communication
  • Fees: clear framework

4) Minimal navigation

Fewer links = more focus. The blog captures Google, but every page must guide toward booking a conversation.

  • 6–7 menu links max
  • Sticky CTA
  • Footer with Contact / Offers / FAQ

5) Readability

Line length, spacing, contrast, rhythm. Hard reading = lower confidence.

6) An intake form that qualifies

A great form qualifies. You save time and the client feels taken care of.

  • Need + urgency
  • Jurisdiction
  • Budget range (optional)

7) Quiet, strong local SEO

Location pages, GBP, reviews, NAP consistency.
