Web Design
Law firm website design for Australian practices: practice area pages, safe enquiry forms and fast mobile pages that lead to booked consultations.
Part of Marketing for LawyersWebsites for law firms
Rock Solid Marketing provides law firm website design for practices across Australia: new websites with practice area pages, lawyer profiles and enquiry forms, built from our Mildura office.
Your website is often the first conversation a client has with the firm. Someone reads your separation page at 11pm, decides whether you sound like people they could talk to, then looks for a way to get in touch. If the form asks them to explain their whole matter, or the phone number is hard to find, they close the tab.
Website packages start from $5,000 + GST, or 6 monthly payments of $833 + GST, and every project starts with a free 30-minute discovery call. Your site can also sit inside a wider law firm marketing plan.

Common problems
Each practice area gets its own page, with a short form asking for a name, contact details, the practice area and a good time to call. Matter details wait until your conflict check is done.
Forms go straight to the right lawyer or your intake inbox, and an automatic reply tells the client when to expect a call. Criminal and family pages can show an after-hours number if you take those calls.
Every page is checked against rule 36 of the Australian Solicitors’ Conduct Rules, which covers advertising. That means no misleading claims, no outcome promises and “specialist” only for accredited lawyers. Your lawyers sign off each page.
What every firm site gets
A firm’s website has three jobs: explain each practice area plainly, show the lawyers clients will meet, and make getting in touch easy.
Family law, wills and estates, conveyancing, criminal and personal injury each get a page explaining the first steps and who handles them. Law firm websites work harder when clients can find their own situation in one click.
Each lawyer gets a profile with a real photo, their practice areas and any accreditation the firm confirms. Clients often choose the person before the firm, so profiles sit one click from every practice page.
Forms ask only for contact details, the practice area and a time to call, so nobody discloses a matter before your conflict check. Each enquiry goes to the right lawyer or your intake inbox.
We size images, keep the code light and test Google’s Core Web Vitals before launch. A tap-to-call button stays in reach on every page, because urgent matters often start with a phone call.
Every site runs on SSL, forms send over an encrypted connection, and your privacy policy explains how enquiry details are handled under the Privacy Act 1988. Standard and Advanced add security plug-ins.
Page titles, meta descriptions, a sitemap and LegalService structured data are set up at launch. If you want ongoing work on your rankings after that, our SEO plans for law firms keep going month by month.

We design the site around your brand and content, with rounds of feedback along the way. Essentials includes three rounds.

Keep the site secure and up to date with Australian hosting from $400 + GST a year and a care plan from $275 + GST a month (minimum 6 months).
How a build runs
Website development for law firms starts with how clients reach you today: which practice areas bring the most enquiries, who answers them and what happens after hours. Then we map the pages and agree who writes what. The packages assume the firm supplies its own content, and copywriting can be added.
Designs come to you for desktop and phone first. The Essentials package includes 3 rounds of feedback, and a lawyer approves each practice page before it goes live. If new practice pages on your current site will do the job, we’ll tell you before we quote.
Clients see it only after your lawyers have signed it off.
Package activities
Copywriting for practice area pages is extra, at $175 + GST an hour. Care plans after launch start from $275 + GST a month, minimum 6 months.

All FAQsA law firm website with Rock Solid Marketing starts from $5,000 + GST for Essentials, which suits up to 5 pages. Most firms with several practice areas and lawyer profiles fit Standard, at $6,500 + GST for 10 to 25 pages. Firms wanting email marketing and a CRM database for intake fit Advanced, at $12,000 + GST. You get a fixed quote after the discovery call.
A good law firm website helps a worried person find their kind of matter, trust the lawyer and get in touch quickly. That means a plain-English page per practice area and real photos and profiles of your lawyers. Add a clear note on how fees work and a short enquiry form. It also loads fast on a phone and promises no outcomes.
The best website for a law firm is built around its own practice areas, not a generic template with a scales-of-justice photo. It should also be easy for your staff to update, which is why Standard and Advanced include a WordPress user manual. Building custom websites for legal firms in Australia also means checking every page against the conduct rules.
Not always, but it helps if someone will keep it going. A few useful articles a year on questions clients ask, such as what happens at a first family law appointment, help readers and give Google more to show. A blog with two posts from 2019 looks worse than no blog. If nobody has time, put that effort into practice pages instead.
Start with the questions your receptionist answers every week, and answer each one on the right practice page. Add who the client will meet, what to bring and how fees work. Good web design for law firm clients is mostly clear writing, so cut jargon and Latin where plain words work. Then check every page for misleading claims or promised results.
Law firms capture leads with a short enquiry form and a tap-to-call button on every practice page, backed by a quick reply. The form should ask for contact details, the practice area and a time to call, not the matter itself. Each enquiry goes to the right lawyer or intake inbox, and an automatic reply says when the client will hear back.
Shrink your images, drop plug-ins you don’t use and host the site on a fast server. Then make each page load only the scripts it needs. On firm sites, big header photos, sliders and embedded videos are common causes of slow pages. We run every page through Google’s PageSpeed Insights before launch, then fix whatever drags on a phone.
You get follow-up support after launch: 2 weeks on Essentials, 4 weeks on Standard and 8 weeks on Advanced. Hosting is included for the first 12 months. After that, care plans from $275 + GST a month (minimum 6 months) cover updates, backups, security checks and small content changes. When comparing law firm website developers, always ask what happens after launch.
