Services · Website development · Law firm websites
Codeeo offers law firm website development New York attorneys rely on when the competition is a few blocks away and a client compares five firms on a phone between subway stops. We build sites for Midtown litigation firms, Lower Manhattan boutiques, Downtown Brooklyn practices and immigration, housing and personal injury firms across the five boroughs. The home page labeling, past results wording and record keeping that New York's advertising rules require are built into the CMS, not left for someone to remember.
We work with New York firms remotely, running discovery, prototype reviews and editor training by video call. You get a site your own staff can publish to safely, with a defensible archive of what it said and intake that sends each enquiry to the right attorney.

What we build
New York regulates lawyer advertising in more detail than most states. Under Rule 7.1 of the New York Rules of Professional Conduct, a firm website that counts as advertising carries the words Attorney Advertising on its home page, past results need a specific disclaimer, and copies of the site must be preserved. New York also has its own rules on domain names and on claims of specialization. A template theme bought online knows none of this.
The market is just as demanding. A tenant in Washington Heights facing eviction, a startup founder in the Flatiron District and a family in Flushing sponsoring a relative all search differently, often in different languages. A custom law firm website development New York firms can depend on brings those audiences to the right page and keeps the firm compliant while it publishes. The features below are a starting point that discovery refines.
Every published version of each page is stored with a date and the approving attorney, so the firm can show what the site said at any point. The archive is exportable, which helps when the firm needs to produce copies to meet New York retention requirements.
Record keeping happens automatically instead of by screenshot.
The Attorney Advertising label sits on the home page in legible type, and every case result entry requires the prior results disclaimer before it can be published. Specialization claims use fields that carry the disclosure language your firm approves.
Editors cannot publish a result without the required wording.
Spanish, Chinese, Russian, Korean, Bengali or Haitian Creole pages where your attorneys or staff actually serve clients in those languages. Each translated page gets correct hreflang tags and, where needed, the right font support for non Latin scripts.
Clients find a firm that can talk to them, not just a translated menu.
Practical guides for matters heard at 60 Centre Street, in Brooklyn and Queens civil and housing parts, or in federal court in the Southern and Eastern Districts, with notes on NYSCEF e-filing where it helps clients understand the timeline. Guides link to the attorneys who appear in each court.
Visibility on the courthouse and borough searches clients make.
Forms that ask for the adverse party and matter type first, tell visitors not to send confidential details before a relationship exists, and route to the right practice group or your intake software with source data attached.
Conflict checks start sooner and staff spend less time sorting.
The New York SHIELD Act expects reasonable safeguards for private information of New York residents. On the website side that means encrypted forms, minimal fields, limited retention of unconverted enquiries, role based editor access, two factor login and a documented breach response contact.
The website side of your security program is documented and in place.
Profiles with admissions in New York and other states, the departments and courts where the lawyer practices, languages, publications and bar association committees. Referring counsel and in house lawyers check these before they send a matter, so we make them fast and scannable.
Referrals convert because the right person is easy to find.
A simple drafting screen, review queue for partners and marketing, scheduled publishing and author pages, so client alerts on New York decisions and legislative changes go out the day they matter rather than a week later.
Timely insight that earns links and search traffic.
Lean templates, compressed images, a content delivery network and a firewall, built to pass Core Web Vitals on a phone in a packed subway car. Accessibility is tested to WCAG 2.2 AA throughout.
Clients read the page instead of giving up while it loads.
A request form that lets a prospective client choose a video consultation or a visit to your Midtown, Brooklyn or Queens office, pick a practice area and suggest times. Your intake team confirms the slot, so attorneys never get booked into a conflict before screening is done.
Consultations are requested online without bypassing conflict checks.
Who this is for
The website a Park Avenue litigation firm needs shares little with what a Jackson Heights immigration practice needs, yet both are judged within seconds by clients with plenty of alternatives. Discovery starts with your client mix, the languages your team speaks, where referrals come from and which enquiries are a poor fit. From those answers we decide how much weight goes on profiles, practice content, translated pages and intake. We also ask how fast your team answers web enquiries today, because in New York a slow callback hands the client to the next firm on the results page.
Your clients are general counsel, investors and executives who compare firms carefully. We build practice and industry hubs, detailed profiles, alerts filtered by practice, and announcement pages that describe matters without disclosing confidences. CRM connections show business development which content readers engaged with before they called. Alumni and lateral hire pages can sit in the same structure without cluttering client navigation.
Credibility and depth do the selling.
Clients arrive with urgent questions about status, custody or a relative's case, often in their first language. We create translated practice pages, plain explanations of each process, office hours and the languages spoken, plus intake forms that arrive tagged by language so the right staff member responds. We also keep the pages honest about what the firm handles, so a family visa enquiry does not land with a team that only does business immigration.
Language and clarity decide the call.
Housing matters move fast. A tenant with a court date needs to understand what happens next and how to reach a lawyer today. We build short, accessible guides, a prominent call option and forms that capture the index number and court date so staff can triage immediately. Nonprofit legal services organizations often need grant reporting on enquiry volume, so the analytics are set up to count by matter type and borough.
Speed and accessibility matter more than polish.
Construction site accidents, scaffold falls and vehicle collisions are heavily searched and heavily advertised. We build injury type pages, a short mobile case review form, tracked phone numbers and results pages that cannot go live without the prior results disclaimer. Spanish pages carry the same structure and disclaimers as the English versions.
Compliant proof and fast contact win the client.
Working together
Most firms commission a defined rebuild and then keep a monthly plan for new pages, profile changes, alerts support, technical upkeep and search work. Larger firms with portals, extranets or reporting projects alongside the website sometimes take a dedicated developer or small team. Everything runs remotely with written scope, a shared tracker and recorded approvals, so the marketing director and the general counsel can both see what has been signed off. When a trial or closing pulls attorneys away, review dates move by written agreement rather than silently slipping.
A defined build with a deadline
We agree what the product has to do, write it down with a price and a date, and build exactly that. Changes are priced before they are made, not discovered on the invoice.
A product that keeps evolving
Named engineers who work your hours, join your standups and stay on the codebase. You direct the backlog; we own the quality of what ships.
Something live that needs looking after
A monthly block of hours for improvements, fixes and the small requests that otherwise wait months. Unused hours carry for a quarter.
Technology
We typically recommend WordPress with a controlled plugin set for firms with a small marketing team, a headless CMS on Next.js for firms that publish heavily across several languages, or Laravel when the site exchanges data with internal systems. Each option is explained with its maintenance and security responsibilities before you choose. All repositories and licenses are opened in the firm's name.

Specific labeling, disclaimer and retention rules for lawyer advertising.
New York's Rule 7.1 requires the Attorney Advertising label on the home page of a website that is advertising, a disclaimer with past results, and preservation of website copies. Rule 7.5 adds conditions on domain names, and specialization claims carry their own disclosure rules. We build these into templates and the archive, while your firm decides the final wording and keeps responsibility for compliance.
