Larken Newark Office

A Modern Website Makeover for an Established Solicitors’ Practice

We originally designed Larken & Co Solicitors’ website 20 years ago and completed a refresh a decade after that. As the firm has continued to grow, the site needed another update to modernise its appearance, improve usability, and highlight their most popular services.

Challenge

Larken & Co provides a wide range of legal services, from commercial and employment law to family, property, and wills. Presenting all of this information clearly without overwhelming users was a key priority. The updated site also needed to feel modern and approachable while reflecting the authority of an established solicitors’ practice.

Navigation had to work smoothly for both business and private clients, with contact details and regulatory information easy to find. Alongside the design refresh, the underlying system needed upgrading to provide modern levels of security, performance, and long-term maintainability.

The automatic business card styling for team profiles adds a polished, professional touch, and cookie-free analytics offer valuable insight into user engagement.

Overall, the refresh strengthens Larken & Co’s online presence while blending their heritage with a contemporary look.
