How do business clients choose a law firm?

Rarely by searching "commercial solicitor" and clicking the first result. More often:

A referral from an accountant, a bank or another client.
A look at the partner's profile and LinkedIn.
A check of whether the firm knows their sector.
A read of something the firm has written on their problem.

Your website has to pass that check in about two minutes.

What does a commercial firm's website need?

Feature Why

Partner and fee earner profiles

Experience, sectors, notable (publishable) matters, directory recognition

Sector pages

Tech, property, healthcare, hospitality: whatever your real strengths are

Service pages

Corporate, commercial contracts, disputes, employment for employers, commercial property

Insights

Short, useful articles on real business questions, with a named author

SRA price pages where needed

Debt recovery up to £100,000, licensing applications and employer tribunal defence are listed

Referrer page

For accountants and other introducers

What do commercial law websites usually get wrong?

Every firm says the same thing. "Commercial, pragmatic, partner-led." So does everyone else.
Profiles are thin. A photo and a paragraph that could describe any lawyer.
Insights are news, not help. A post about the firm's charity run is not a reason to instruct you.
No sector story. If you are strong in hospitality, the website should make that obvious.

What pages should a commercial law firm website have?

Page Purpose

Home

Your niche in one sentence, then sectors and people

Commercial contracts

Disputes

Commercial litigation, shareholder disputes, debt recovery

Employment for employers

Insights

Useful articles with named authors

Fees

SRA price information for listed business services

How do insights win commercial work?

Business owners often research a problem before they call a lawyer: "Can I stop a departing director poaching staff?" or "What happens if a shareholder wants out?" A short, clear article that answers that question, written by a named partner, does three jobs at once. It shows expertise, it gives Google and AI tools something specific to quote, and it gives referrers something useful to forward.

What do law firms say about our work?

A Professional Website Designed to Convert
“Our new website presents our practice areas beautifully, introduces our solicitors and makes it straightforward for potential clients to arrange a consultation. Every detail feels carefully considered, from the navigation and mobile experience to the enquiry forms.”
Michael, Commercial Law Partner, London

A Website That Reflects Our Firm
“Our previous website didn't reflect the professionalism or expertise of our firm. The team created a modern, sophisticated website that showcases our legal services clearly and gives prospective clients confidence from the moment they visit.”
James, Managing Partner, London

Frequently asked questions

Do commercial law firms need published prices?

For a few business services, yes. Under the SRA Transparency Rules, debt recovery up to £100,000, licensing applications for business premises and defending employment tribunal unfair or wrongful dismissal claims are listed. Most corporate and commercial work is not.

What matters most on a commercial firm's website?

Partner profiles and sector pages. Business clients buy a person with relevant experience, so the people and the sectors you know should be easy to find.

Should we show directory rankings?

If you are ranked in directories such as Legal 500 or Chambers and Partners, yes, accurately and with the year. They are strong trust signals for business buyers.

How do commercial firms get found online?

Mostly through sector-specific searches, insights that answer real business questions, LinkedIn and referrals. Generic terms like 'commercial solicitor London' are very competitive.

Do you build client extranets or deal rooms?

No. We link to the portal or deal room your firm already uses.
