// Law Firm Website Design & Compliance
Law firm websites that win clients — and pass compliance.
We design custom, mobile-fast, accessible websites for law firms, immigration consultants and legal practices — with the privacy policy, legal disclaimer and marketing standards your firm’s regulator expects. Across British Columbia and Canada.
Bottom line up front
A law firm website has two jobs: win the client, and stay inside the rules. We build custom, fast, accessible sites that convert searches into consultations — with a privacy policy, a proper legal disclaimer, and marketing wording that respects your Law Society and federal advertising obligations.
A website that works as hard as your firm
Most law firm websites are DIY templates — a Wix or GoDaddy page that looks dated, loads slowly on a phone, and quietly sends serious clients to the firm next door. We build the opposite: a custom-coded, fast, mobile-first website engineered to turn a search into a booked consultation. Clean service pages for each practice area, real credentials and results front and centre, and a calm, professional experience that reads as trustworthy the moment it loads — because when someone is choosing who handles their injury claim, divorce, or immigration file, the website is the first impression.
Compliant with the rules that govern your firm
Your website is regulated marketing. The Law Society of BC's marketing rules (Code Chapter 4) say it can't be false, inaccurate, or misleading — which puts "best," "#1," "specialist," and "guaranteed results" wording at risk — and anyone not entitled to practise in BC has to be clearly marked. Immigration consultants now have to show their CICC member number on all advertising, including the website, and can't promise guaranteed outcomes. We write and build your site to sit cleanly inside those lines, so your marketing wins clients without inviting a complaint.
Covered on privacy & advertising law
The moment your contact form collects a name and email, federal and provincial privacy law (PIPEDA and BC's PIPA) expect a real privacy policy, meaningful consent, and a way to reach a privacy contact — most small firm sites have none. If you send a newsletter, Canada's anti-spam law (CASL) requires consent, sender identification, and an unsubscribe link. And every claim on the page has to be truthful under the federal Competition Act. We build all of it in: a privacy policy, a proper "this isn't legal advice / no lawyer–client relationship" disclaimer, terms, and honest, defensible copy.
Accessible — and ahead of BC's 2027 rules
An inaccessible site quietly shuts out the exact people many firms serve — injured, elderly, and disabled clients — and it ranks lower on Google. BC's accessibility standards for private business are being drafted now and are expected to land around 2027, and the Human Rights Code already frames a duty not to deny service by disability. We build to the recognized WCAG standard now, so you serve every client, rank better, and are ready before the rules become mandatory instead of scrambling later.

Law firm website FAQs
Three layers. First, your regulator's marketing rules — the Law Society of BC's Code Chapter 4 (no false, misleading, or unverifiable claims; no implied "specialist" or "guaranteed" wording), and for immigration consultants, the CICC rule requiring your member number on all advertising. Second, website law that applies to any business — a PIPEDA/BC PIPA privacy policy and consent once you collect visitor info, CASL for marketing emails, and truthful claims under the Competition Act. Third, a proper "this is not legal advice" disclaimer so your site doesn't accidentally imply a lawyer–client relationship. We build all three in.
WeFirstWeb builds and maintains websites — we are not a law firm and this page is not legal advice. We align your site with publicly stated Law Society of BC, privacy (PIPEDA/BC PIPA), anti-spam (CASL) and Competition Act requirements, and we recommend your own review of any wording specific to your practice.
