Charge pages
Pages for DUI, drug, assault, theft, domestic violence, and felony charges, each with plain next steps.
The Problem
Arrest Calls Come at Night, and Your Site Sends Them Away
Calls about an arrest often come from a family member, on a phone, outside office hours. The site has one job then: connect them to a lawyer fast.
The problem
It's 1 AM, and a mother is searching for help from her car outside the county jail.
- Your site loads slowly, and the phone number sits in the footer.
- The contact form wants a full case description and promises a reply within one business day.
- She taps back and calls the firm whose button sat at the top.
- By morning, that firm has the case, and you have an unread form.
How we solve it
We start with the moment of the call.
A tap-to-call button stays fixed on every phone screen, and at night it rings your on-call lawyer or answering service. Each charge you handle gets a page with plain next steps and local court details. The form asks only for a name, a number, and the charge. Your site answers at 1 AM instead of sending her to voicemail.
One tap from search to call
A call button stays fixed on every phone screen, day and night.
A page for every charge
DUI, drug, assault, theft, and felony pages that explain what happens after an arrest.
Routing that reaches a person
Late calls ring your on-call attorney or answering service, not a full voicemail box.

From Charge Map to a 24/7 Launch in Five Steps
You sign off on each charge page, the designs, and every call route before launch. We test each route at night, because that's when many of your clients call.

LET'S DISCUSSWhat Our Clients Say
What Clients Say After Launch
Feedback from teams we have designed and built websites for.
We had a pretty specific idea of what we wanted our website to become, but I wasn’t sure how easily we could explain all of it to a development team. There were quite a few moving parts, and we were working toward a deadline, so I expected a few things to get lost along the way. That never really happened. They understood what we were trying to achieve, kept us updated throughout the process, and got everything ready within the agreed timeline. The final site feels much easier to navigate, works beautifully on mobile, and is noticeably smoother for our customers. It was a huge relief seeing the original idea actually turn into the website we had in mind.
The mobile experience is probably my favourite part of the new site. We had spent a lot of time making sure the desktop version looked right, and the team kept pushing us to think about how everything would actually feel on a phone too. They were right. The navigation is clean, the interactions feel natural, and everything we’ve tested so far works exactly as it should. They also went through the links, forms, integrations, and other details more than once before launch, which I really appreciated. And even after going live, we could still reach out when something came up. The whole process felt friendly, organised, and surprisingly straightforward.
What I appreciate most is that the website is actually easy for us to manage now. We can update content ourselves instead of sending a developer a message every time we need to change something small. They also paid attention to the technical SEO side, which mattered to us because we didn’t want a new website to create problems for the traffic we already had. I’ve probably asked more questions than I should have since launch, but every question has been handled patiently and without any fuss. The team is easy to work with, they explain things clearly, and when we need something changed, they focus on getting it done rather than making the process complicated.

Work Culture
Why Defense Attorneys Trust Us With Late-Night Calls
Defense work runs on speed and discretion. These habits keep every call reachable and every inquiry private, from the first charge page to the late-night test.
We test calls at night
Before launch, we call every number on your site at night and on a weekend. A route that ends in a full voicemail box gets fixed before a family finds it.
Charge pages lawyers review
Every charge page is written for a frightened, non-lawyer reader, then your attorneys check it for accuracy. We don't publish legal claims your firm hasn't approved.
Local courts, local details
County pages cover the courthouses you actually appear in, with details your team confirms. A client from the next county sees that you know their court.
Inquiries stay confidential
Forms travel over HTTPS to a restricted inbox or your intake tool, not a shared mailbox. Ad and analytics tools learn that a form was sent, not what it says.
Honest about what you need
If a directory profile and a better phone setup would bring the calls you need, we tell you. You hear that before any proposal arrives.
You own everything we build
The site, the design files, the tracking numbers, and every account are held in the firm's name. Change vendors later, and clients still reach the same numbers.

Who it's for
Solo defense attorneys taking late calls
You answer your own phone at night, and you need a site that pushes callers to that number, not to a contact form.
DUI and traffic defense practices
Your practice needs DUI attorney website design that answers license and court questions fast, because clients search right after the arrest.
Firms covering several counties
You appear in courts across several counties, and clients want proof that you know their courthouse before they call.
Former prosecutors opening a defense firm
You're opening your own defense practice after years as a prosecutor and need a credible site, bio, and phone setup within weeks.
Agencies handling defense clients
Your agency runs criminal defense marketing for several firms and needs the site builds done under your brand, with call routing tested.
Not a fit for
You mainly handle injury claims, not criminal cases. Our personal injury website service is built for case evaluations and paid search.
Your practice centers on divorce and custody, including protective orders. Our family law website service handles that more private kind of intake.
You need someone to answer your phones, not a new website. An answering service is the right purchase, and we can connect your site to it later.
Your budget is under $1,250. A directory profile that shows your after-hours number is the better start for now.

FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
Straight answers on cost, after-hours calls, charge pages, results, and confidentiality.
Your defense firm site from DeveloperLook starts at $1,250 for up to 8 pages with click-to-call on every screen. It includes routing to your on-call line. The $3,050 plan adds 6 charge pages, county court pages, and call tracking, and multi-county sites with Spanish pages start at $5,900.
Most defense firm sites go live in 4 to 11 weeks. A starter site takes 4 to 6 weeks, and a site with charge and county pages takes 7 to 9. Multi-county sites with Spanish pages take up to 11, and we schedule time for your attorneys to review every charge page.
A defense site needs a 24/7 phone number on every screen, a page for each charge, and clear next steps after an arrest. Add county court details, bios with the credentials you supply, and a short, confidential form. Results pages help too, with the disclaimer your firm approves.
Defense websites capture those calls with a tap-to-call button on every phone screen and routing to whoever is on call. We connect your numbers to the on-call attorney or an answering service, add a callback form for people who can't talk, and test each route at night.
We build each criminal defense landing page around one charge and one place, such as a first DUI in one county. It explains what happens next, with click-to-call near the top, and your attorneys approve the legal content. Speed matters, because many states give drivers a short deadline to request a license hearing.
Arrest calls don't wait for office hours, and the person searching is often a relative on a phone. They want to talk to someone now, not fill in a form. A fixed call button and routing that reaches a person keep that call from going to the next firm.
Your firm chooses which results to show, and each one carries the context and disclaimer your firm approves. We leave out client names unless the client consented, and we avoid wording that implies every case ends the same way. State bars have rules on past results, so your firm confirms the final wording.
The site connects through phone routing, because jail calls reach your number, not the website. We make sure every number on the site, including tracking numbers, rings through to your line or answering service. Forms and chats go to the same queue, and we test each number with the service before launch.
Web inquiries travel over HTTPS to your intake tool or a restricted mailbox, not a shared inbox. The form asks for contact details and the charge, not the full story, and explains that sending it doesn't create an attorney-client relationship. Ad and analytics tools only learn that a form was sent.
Support runs 30 to 60 days after launch, depending on your plan, and we repeat the late-night call tests in that window. You own the site and every account from day one. Afterward, you can add a monthly care plan or book changes as needed.
