Websites for law firms in Hobart

Government, the university, hospitals, tourism and the port provide much of the work, and many small businesses serve residents and visitors alike. People search by suburb or by shore, such as the northern suburbs, the eastern shore or the Huon, and add Hobart when a suburb is little known.

In a place the size of Hobart, everyone knows someone who has used a lawyer, so the site should show named solicitors, the kinds of matters you handle and a plain statement on confidentiality. Students around Hobart face tenancy problems, part-time work disputes and traffic matters, so a page that says what you advise on and what a first meeting costs is welcome. Many Hobart clients only have time to deal with a legal matter after work, so evening appointments, an enquiry form that works at night and a clear note on response times matter.

Name the places you really work, the way people type them: Bellerive, Lindisfarne and New Town, not just Hobart.

Everything a site for law firms needs

In Tasmania, the Legal Profession Board oversees conduct, and in a small profession your wording is read by people who know you.

Avoid language that implies a guaranteed outcome or compares your firm with others, since either can be read as misleading.
