What does a website cost for lawyers?
The cost follows how many matters you will name, and whether the form asks for a consult instead of a free legal answer.
- Hosting
- $249/mo
- Live in
- Less than a week
- Built by
- 100% US-based team
- Terms
- 12 months, then month to month
Google Business Profile setup and daily backups included.
Law firm website quotes often price a long menu of practice areas the firm does not want. Each area you do want needs a page that says who it is for and how a consult starts. It must not answer the legal question, predict a result, or call someone the best lawyer in a city. That restraint is part of the writing, and it belongs in the price.
A focused firm site is $0 down and $249/mo hosting. 12-month ownership terms: 12 months of hosting at $249/mo, then month to month. Leave earlier and the remaining hosting or a buyout of the build is due. The limits are spelled out on websites for lawyers.
What changes the price of a website for lawyers
How many matters make the menu
Four practice areas you actually take are a reasonable small site. Twenty areas copied from a bar association list are a larger writing project and a misleading one. Cutting the list is the honest way to control the price.
The consult form
A short form that asks what kind of matter it is, without inviting a full story for free advice, takes care to write. A form that says 'describe your case in detail' creates work for the firm and risk. The safer form is not more expensive. It is more deliberate.
The people
Bios should use the credentials you confirm. Adding attorneys later is a content change. Inventing a result beside a name is something the quote should forbid.
Languages, courts, or industries, only if true
If you work with a specific kind of client, say a landlord or a family in a custody dispute, that sentence helps. If a template adds industries you do not serve, you pay to remove them.
What is deliberately absent
No outcome statistics, no client quotes, no 'best of' badges you cannot source. Leaving those off is a decision. Putting them on is a different, riskier product we will not sell.
What the price should cover
- Pages for the practice areas you accept
- A consult request that does not pretend to be advice
- Attorney bios from confirmed facts
- A clear note on matters you decline, if you want one
- Hours or a response expectation you can keep
- Hosting, SSL, and daily backups
- Google Business Profile setup with categories that match the firm
- Small wording updates when a practice area changes

Questions to ask before you hire anyone
- Which practice areas are in this price, by name?
- Will the copy give legal advice or predict an outcome?
It must not.
- What does the consult form ask, and what does it refuse to ask?
- Are client testimonials or result numbers part of the design?
They should not be, unless you have a sourced fact you want and we agree it is safe. We do not invent them.
- Is a portal included?
If yes, it is a different project. Ask for it to be priced separately.
- Is Google Business Profile setup included?
- What do the first 12 months cost?

Questions we get asked
How much does a website cost for a law firm?
A small site covering the matters you take is $0 down and $249/mo hosting with us. A long practice library or a client portal is a larger quote on packages.
Will the site answer legal questions?
No. It describes the work and how to request a consult. It does not advise the reader or promise a result.
Can you add a practice area later?
A short new page can be more than two small monthly edits. We will tell you if it needs a separate scope instead of pretending it is a typo fix.
Is an upfront firm-website fee cheaper?
Compare it in the $0 down vs. upfront calculator using the fee in the proposal, not a guessed range.
