Practice areas, people and fees — stated plainly.
The three things somebody looking for a lawyer actually wants: what you do, who will do it, and roughly what it costs. Built in about thirty seconds.
See it live: Graystone Law
Graystone Law is drawn in the Editorial style with a classic typeface — restrained, spaced and deliberately quiet. Practice areas are a fixed list rather than a catalogue to maintain, the people are named with what they actually work on, and the fee basis is on the page instead of behind a phone call.
Built for legal
Every one of these is a module on the demo above — not a roadmap item.
Practice areas
What you take on and what you do not, in the words a client would use.
The people
Who they are and what they actually work on — not a paragraph of qualifications.
How fees work
Hourly, fixed or on account, said out loud rather than left to the first meeting.
A first enquiry
A form that asks what the matter is, so the call back is useful.
Clients stop ringing to ask what is happening
A typical practice spends a real part of every week telling clients that their matter is progressing. The client has no way to know otherwise: filings happen out of sight, the fee note arrives without context, and the only signal that work is being done is a phone call somebody has to make. On BrandRafter the client signs in and sees their matter at the stage you named it, with the filed documents where they can read them and the fee note ready to settle. Nothing on the screen says “order”, because a matter is not one — the labels are yours, and the same engine underneath runs a machine shop’s dispatches. An illustrative scenario, and privilege is not a marketing claim: a portal user sees their own matter and nothing else, checked on every request.
Matters, fees and client communication
A practice runs on documents and deadlines. This is the part around them.
Client portal
Clients sign in on your own site to see where their matter stands and settle a fee note, instead of ringing the office.
Engagement letters
Send the scope and the fee, have it accepted in the portal, and open the matter on the terms that were agreed.
Matter stages
Each matter moves through the stages your practice actually uses, with the client updated as it does.
Fee notes
Raise GST fee notes, take payment online through your own account, and track what is outstanding per client.
