Websites for professionals: lawyers, accountants, doctors
A website for a lawyer, an accountant or a doctor costs USD 400 with me and launches in 7 days. Its job is narrow and important: when someone gets your name from a referral, they will search you before they call. What they find in those 30 seconds decides whether the referral survives. The site exists to pass that check and make contact effortless.
What a practice website must answer in 30 seconds
Four questions, in this order: what exactly do you do, who do you do it for, why should I trust you, and how do I reach you. That maps to a clear service description (not “legal services” but “immigration law for tech workers”), credentials that are verifiable, and a contact path that works on a phone.
Notice what is not on the list: a blog you will never update, stock photos of handshakes, and a mission statement. A professional site with 4 solid pages beats a 15-page site full of filler, both for visitors and for Google.
Trust is built with specifics
Generic claims (“years of experience”, “client-focused”) are invisible because everyone makes them. Specifics are what register: the bar or license number, the university, the areas you actually take cases in, the languages you speak, real photos of you and your office. For doctors, the insurance plans you accept and the address with parking information do more work than any slogan.
If clients say good things about you, put two or three short quotes with names (with permission). One real testimonial outweighs ten anonymous ones.
Contact: remove every step you can
Professionals lose leads in the gap between “I found them” and “I contacted them”. A tappable phone number, a WhatsApp button, and a short form (name, contact, one line about the matter) cover the three ways people prefer to reach out. Answering “do you take cases like mine” before they ask, with a simple services page, filters out the calls you do not want.
If your practice books appointments, a scheduling flow saves your secretary hours of phone tag. That is the USD 900 tier, and I described what those flows need in booking and scheduling systems.
What it costs and what to avoid
The USD 400 site covers design, build, mobile version, contact forms and launch, with 2 revision rounds included. Domain and hosting go in your name, which matters for a regulated professional: your web presence should never depend on a vendor. Avoid the two classic traps: agencies charging USD 3,000 to 10,000 for the same 4 pages, and DIY builders that eat your weekends and still look DIY. I compared that second path in DIY with AI vs hiring.
Frequently asked questions
I get all my clients by referral. Do I still need a website?
That is exactly when you need one. Referred people search you before calling, and finding nothing (or an abandoned Facebook page) weakens the referral. The site’s job is to confirm the trust someone else already created.
What about patient or client confidentiality on the contact form?
The form collects the minimum: name, contact method, one line about the matter. No case details, no medical information. I set it up so submissions arrive only to your email, on infrastructure in your name.
Can I appear in Google when someone searches my specialty in my city?
Yes, and it starts with writing pages that say your specialty and your city in plain text. A well-structured USD 400 site covers the basics; if you want to compete for busy searches, I offer an SEO audit from USD 150 and monthly SEO at USD 100 to 200.
How long until it is live?
7 days from the moment I have your texts, photos and credentials. You get the fixed price and the date in writing within 48 hours of contacting me.
