How to make a website for a lawyer

People who already have a lawyer's name, from a relative or another advocate, often search for it to check the chamber address, the courts the advocate appears in and how to reach the office. A plain, factual website gives that information. Advocates in India face strict limits on advertising, so the site states facts and does not ask for work.

What people look for on a lawyer website

The advocate's full name and enrolment number with the State Bar Council
Qualifications, such as LL.B. or LL.M., and the year of enrolment
Areas of practice, stated plainly, such as civil, family, property or criminal matters
The courts and tribunals the advocate regularly appears in
Chamber and office address, with landmark and floor
Office hours and the days the office is closed
Phone and WhatsApp for the office, for people who already intend to get in touch

The pages your website needs

Home: The advocate's name, enrolment number, areas of practice in one line, courts, office hours and contact buttons
About the advocate: Qualifications, year of enrolment, languages spoken and the courts appeared in, written as plain facts
Areas of practice: A short neutral description of each area, such as property title matters or family matters, without any claim about outcomes
Chamber and office: Chamber number in the court complex, office address, landmark, hours, phone, WhatsApp and a Google Maps button

Sample words for your home page

Use these as a starting point and write them in your own words: AppCub can rewrite them for you in the chat.

How to make it with AppCub, step by step

Decide the pages. Most lawyer websites need these pages: Home, About the advocate, Areas of practice, Chamber and office.
Describe it to AppCub. Paste the request below, with your own name, address, prices and timings.
Check the plan. AppCub lists the pages and what goes on each. Ask for changes until it is right; seeing the plan is free.
Add your details and photos. Replace every sample with your real details, attach your own photos, and check each page on the phone and computer preview.
Publish and share. Choose your address (your-name.sites.appcub.ai), put the website live and share the link on WhatsApp.

Copy this request, change the details to match your lawyer, and paste it into AppCub:

Tips for a lawyer website

Check the Bar Council of India's and your State Bar Council's rules on advertising before you publish, and keep every line to facts.
Leave out testimonials, client stories, 'success rates', case wins and phrases such as 'expert' or 'top lawyer'.
Don't name clients or describe their cases, even without names, if a person could be identified.
Write areas of practice as a neutral list, not as offers of service or fees.
Write the office hours exactly as they are, including court-day mornings when the office is closed.
Use a plain photo of the advocate or the office if you want one; skip images of gavels, scales and courtrooms.

Good to know

The website only shows facts and contact buttons; it can't take case documents, book consultations or collect fees, and it shouldn't try to bring in work. For keeping your own case diary, hearing dates and fees, an advocate's app is the better fit.
The pages are written in English. You can talk to AppCub in English, Hindi or Hinglish.
A website has no forms, bookings, payments or logins: visitors reach you on WhatsApp, by phone or on Google Maps.
Every page carries a small “Made with AppCub” badge and a “Report this site” link.

Questions

Are lawyers in India allowed to have a website?

Advocates may share basic facts such as name, enrolment, qualifications, areas of practice and contact details, but must not solicit work or advertise. Check the Bar Council's current rules before publishing.

What should an advocate's website include?

Name, enrolment number, qualifications, areas of practice, courts appeared in, chamber and office address, hours and contact details. Nothing more is needed.

Can I add client testimonials or case results to my website?

No. Testimonials, case results and success claims count as advertising and are not allowed for advocates. Keep the site factual.

Can I show my consultation fee on the website?

Many advocates leave fees off the website, since it can read as an offer for work. Check your Bar Council's rules if you are unsure.

Can people send me their case papers through the website?

No, there is no upload or contact form. People who want to reach the office use the phone or WhatsApp button, and you decide what to ask for.

Will the website show up on Google?

The pages are made so Google can read them, with your office address and hours in the format search engines use. Where they appear is Google's decision.
