About

Web Presence

The two award badges ("Best Law Firms 2024" and "Best Attorneys Over 75 Years") placed prominently in the top-left are doing exactly what credibility signals should do — they're the first thing a prospective client sees before reading a single word of copy, and for a firm competing in a trust-sensitive industry that's smart, earned positioning. The navigation architecture is robust for a law firm: offering attorneys browsable by name, practice area, and industry vertical, plus a dedicated "About the Law" educational section, shows real consideration for how different clients navigate the hiring process, and having both phone numbers, LinkedIn, email, and social all surface-level accessible in the sitemap footer reflects an older but thorough approach to contact discoverability. On the improvement side, the homepage is essentially just a full-screen photo of Big Spring Park with a logo and four nav links floating over it — there is no value proposition, no practice area summary, no human face, and no reason for a first-time visitor to feel anything other than confused about what the firm actually does or who it serves.
