How much does a law firm website cost in Australia?
$4,000–$25,000 covers nearly all solo and small-firm projects. Solo: $4–7k. Small firms competing on Google: $8–14k. Multi-area / multi-location: $15k+ with an ongoing retainer. See the honest cost guide.
How long until I see more enquiries from the new site?
Conversion lifts on existing traffic land at launch. Map-pack visibility 3–6 months with strong Google Business Profile + review velocity. Competitive organic for "[area] lawyer [city]" 9–18 months with the page system, content and links.
Do you understand the Solicitors' Conduct Rules?
Yes - every page is built against the Australian Solicitors' Conduct Rules and state-specific Law Society advertising guidance (NSW, VIC/LIV, QLD/QLS, SA/LSSA, WA). It's the single biggest reason generalist-built sites later get rewritten.
Do I own the site, content and domain?
Yes, on day one - site code, copy, domain, hosting account, analytics. Exportable on request, no lock-in clauses, ever.
Will the site rank for "[practice area] lawyer [city]"?
Eventually with sustained effort - these are among the most contested local-commercial terms in Australia. The realistic path is map-pack first (3–6 months), then competitive organic (9–18 months), via the practice-area × city page system + reviews + niche links. We'll tell you honestly in the audit if your market and budget can realistically reach top-3 in 12 months.
