Aqua Legal & Conveyancing is a multi-award-winning [law firm](https://redcrowdigital.com.au/services/professional-services/) with offices in Maitland and Singleton, helping Hunter Valley clients with conveyancing, estate planning, property and family law. Now led by Director and Principal Solicitor Lucy Kelly, the firm asked Red Crow Digital to design and build its new website.

Challenge

## A site the firm had outgrown

Aqua Legal's WordPress site had grown hard to manage and no longer reflected the firm. They needed a site that felt local and approachable, was easy for the team to keep up to date, and made it simple for clients to find the right service and get in touch. It also held years of practice-area pages and articles that clients and search engines relied on, so the move had to happen without losing content or rankings.

Solution

## Local, approachable, easy to update

- Three design directions to choose from, with the chosen one developed into a full set of page designs before build
- Practice-area, team, blog and contact pages, and a flexible block library - FAQs, testimonials, an awards timeline, process steps - so the team can build new pages themselves
- Copy moved across word for word, with URLs kept wherever possible and every old link redirected
- Local SEO for both offices, with structured data, maps and location details
- Enquiry, phone and email tracking in Google Analytics, so the firm can see where new clients come from
