Grindal Legal

Case study

Known for less, trusted with more.

Grindal Legal runs around thirty legal and support staff across Melbourne and the Sunshine Coast, and deliberately practises four areas rather than everything: property and conveyancing, wills and estates, trusts, and mortgage lending services. Sam Grindal is one of a small group of Victorian lawyers accredited by the Law Institute of Victoria as a property law specialist. The redesign had to put that focus at the front instead of burying it in a services list.

  • Location Melbourne and the Sunshine Coast

What we did

Depth in four areas, not a menu of forty.

The firm's own line is that they only practise what they are very good at. The site had to sound that certain.

01

Objective

Most law firm sites list every area of practice and hope something matches. Grindal Legal does the opposite and takes on four. That restraint is the firm's strongest selling point, and it is also the easiest thing for a website to flatten into a generic services page. The brief was to make the narrowness read as expertise.

02

Approach

Four practice areas, four clear routes, no filler in between. Sam Grindal's Law Institute of Victoria accreditation and Christine Crupi's succession law practice are framed as the reason to choose the firm rather than as biography. Separate settlements and discharges lines surface where the people who need them look for them. The blog carries real legal substance, from the section 36A Duties Act exemption to Queensland property law changes.

03

Outcome

Enquiries arrive better matched. People reach the firm already knowing which of the four areas they are in, and that the person handling it specialises in exactly that. The first conversation starts further along instead of establishing what the firm does and does not take on.

Does your site say what you are best at, or everything you do?

Professional firms tend to widen their website until it says nothing in particular. If your services page reads like a list rather than a position, a prospect cannot tell what you should be hired for. We will read yours and tell you what it is actually claiming.
