Crane & Staples - Generating a significant increase in online business

2014 - 2019

Screensot of the Crane and Staples website

As an award-winning local business, Crane & Staples have established themselves as one of the leading law firms in Hertfordshire.

Crane & Staples already had a well established and recognisable brand, so it was important that the design of the new website seamlessly incorporated and strengthened the clients current branding.

We redesigned and rebuilt their website from the ground up, focusing on clear user journey’s and designing for the visitors emotional state of mind.

When the client visited us, we asked them why they chose us, and they responded that our website was the best out of all the law firms they looked at!

Designing for emotion

Crane & Staples provide a variety of services that are often required in times of trouble or grief. The user journey’s were carefully crafted around the visitors potential emotional state and their direct needs.

It was massively important for us to think of every potential reason people would come to the website, and ensure that they could find exactly what they were looking for as quickly and as painlessly as possible.
