Law firm website maintenance

Your firm needs a reliable website, maintained with care.

Updates, backups, security, forms and small fixes: the firm's website needs to stay professional, credible and available. We check that enquiries arrive and that the published details about lawyers and offices remain accurate.

The signs

Maintenance avoids forgetfulness that end up in an incident.

  1. 01

    The site exists, but no one really assumes updates, backups and small requests.

  2. 02

    A new colleague has been waiting weeks for her profile, or an office address is no longer correct.

  3. 03

    A former provider still has an administrator account, and no one knows which one.

  4. 04

    The site is not broken, but every update makes it afraid to break the contact form.

Sensitive points

Law firm website maintenance goes beyond updates.

Priority is given to following forms, backups, access details and information from the firm.

  • Contact form

    Control of the course, errors and anti-spam protections after updates. Reception tests are organised with the firm to check the actual arrival of messages.

  • Access

    Administrator accounts, former service provider, unnecessary rights, passwords. We tidy up, we remove what's no longer in use, and you know who has access to what.

  • Backups

    Where they are, how often, and proof that we really know how to restore them.

  • Firm information

    Monthly support includes your requests and routine changes. Larger work, such as an online shop or client portal, is scoped separately before any work begins.

  • Mobile display

    Contact pages, expert pages, local pages and forms verified on the phone, to ensure that this information remains legible and usable.

  • Incident procedure

    An incident predating our support is scoped separately. During support, we investigate the cause and act within the contract's scope; substantial recovery work is approved with you before starting. Response time is not resolution time.

When to act fast

Assess a law firm website incident without panic.

If the firm's site behaves strangely, the goal is not to change everything in an emergency. Risk must be identified without aggravating the situation. These five signals justify writing to us the same day:

  • the form no longer transmits the applications;
  • the site redirects to an unknown address;
  • Google or hosting provider displays an alert;
  • an important page of the firm is inaccessible;
  • you no longer know who has access to administration.

In these cases, keep the messages received, record the latest known change and will not restore a backup at random. Page WordPress emergency support explains the first steps to take.

Maintenance, audit or redesign

If the site is healthy but poorly monitored, maintenance is sufficient. If there is a lack of clarity, credibility or visibility, audit or law firm website redesign will be more useful than a subscription. The aim is to choose the right level of work, rather than add unnecessary services.

How we get started

Retrieving the firm's website and then organize its follow-up.

  1. 01

    Initial assessment

    You send us the address of the site. We look at the versions, the plugins, the hosting, the backups and the form, and then we tell you what we found.

  2. 02

    Secured access

    Hosting, domain name, WordPress administration: we gather the access details and remove those that no longer need to be. The firm maintains access to its website and content.

  3. 03

    Upgrading

    We specify the necessary fixes before taking over. Substantial upgrades are scoped separately. We back up before working, then check important pages and forms. Where practical, risky changes are prepared on a copy.

  4. 04

    Monthly monitoring

    Then comes the regular routine: updates, backups, monitoring and your requested changes handled as they arise. There is no minimum contract term.

In practice

They trusted us with their websites.

Frequently asked questions

What people often ask us.

What should be monitored on a law firm's WordPress website?

The form comes first, followed by backups, access, practice area pages, mobile display, contact details and security alerts. When these fail, they can cost an enquiry or a client's trust.

Can maintenance replace a redesign?

No. Maintenance keeps a healthy base under control. If the site no longer reflects the firm, no longer generates requests or relies on a weak structure, an audit can help choose between targeted corrections and redesign. We'll tell you as soon as we're clear.

What if the firm's form no longer works?

We need to check receipt, notifications, anti-spam, recipient address, plugins and latest changes. Write us or call us: a silent form is lost requests without anyone seeing it.

The site was made by another agency. Can you take it back?

Yes, after checking the site and access. We start by understanding how it's built, we get the access details, and we take it back without changing its appearance.

Is there a minimum contract term?

No. Maintenance is monthly, with no minimum term. If the firm stops, we hand over its access details and a complete backup of the website.
