A law firm website that reflects the people behind it
Roxburgh Milkins, a highly regarded Bristol law firm recognised by Chambers and Legal 500, came to us with a website they had outgrown. It was basic, difficult to update and no longer reflected the business they had become.
As the firm continued to grow, they wanted their website to give prospective clients confidence in their expertise while keeping the personal feel of a small, approachable team. The brief was to bring that balance into their branding and website design.
Their existing site was built on ExpressionEngine, and managing the content had become a frustration. Alongside a fresh visual identity, they needed a website that was easier for clients to explore and easier for their own team to look after.
The homepage was our starting point, bringing together a new layout, bold photography and a clearer introduction to the firm.
A phased website redesign and rebrand
We partnered with Warren at Ralph Media, who led the website design and new branding. He introduced bold imagery and a fresh corporate logo, giving Roxburgh Milkins a consistent look that felt professional and welcoming.
The old website had quite a few pages, which always makes the job a little bigger. We suggested tackling the law firm website redesign in two phases:
- Phase 1: Redesign the homepage, header, navigation and footer. A cleaner top bar immediately gave the site a fresher feel, while clearer menus made it easier to find the pages underneath. The original sub-navigation was so easy to miss that even we overlooked it!
- Phase 2: Apply the new page templates and branding across the rest of the website, restructuring the content as part of the wider redesign.
We also reviewed the sitemap and existing pages, identifying old, repetitive and unnecessary content. That helped us give each page a clearer purpose and make the firm’s services easier to explore.
After a few rounds of revisions, the design was ready. Putting the team on the homepage was an important part of it. Roxburgh Milkins have a close-knit, personal way of working, and showing the people behind the business helped bring that through from the first visit.
Law firm website design with a personal feel
Roxburgh Milkins now have a clear, informative website that reflects both their legal expertise and the way they work with clients.
Locally recognisable photography gives the site a connection to Bristol, while the refreshed branding creates the confident, established feel the firm wanted. Team profiles and approachable messaging help prospective clients get a sense of who they will be working with.
For a firm that values long-term relationships, those details matter. The new website gives them space to explain their services, share their expertise and show how they support businesses at different stages.
The result is a professional law firm website that still feels like Roxburgh Milkins.
Website performance and SEO support
Our work with Roxburgh Milkins continues beyond the launch. We help the team keep their website working effectively, with ongoing attention to performance, usability and search visibility.
Reviewing site performance and how visitors use the website helps us identify opportunities to improve navigation, content and engagement. As the firm grows, we can also help them introduce new features or expand the website around their needs.
We trained the team to manage their content in Umbraco, giving them the confidence to make everyday changes themselves. Their Umbraco website gives them control over their content, with mohunky on hand to help them get more from it over time.
Ongoing growth and website development
Two years after the original launch, Roxburgh Milkins came back to us with a new direction. The team wanted a streamlined, one page website, bringing the information potential clients needed together in one place.
Using their existing Umbraco framework, we refreshed the block designs and moved the pared-back content into the new layout. This gave them a fresh website design without the cost and upheaval of a full rebuild, building on the work they had already invested in.
It’s a good example of how a website can evolve as preferences and priorities change, with the original foundations continuing to do their job.

mohunky have been so helpful in managing the transition from our old website (on a very old system) over to Umbraco. I hadn’t heard of Umbraco before, but they were able to explain the benefits and reasons for choosing it, along with giving us ongoing tips and tricks on how to use it day-to-day.
They spent time understanding what we needed from the start and now always clarify any decisions in a quick email that lays out our options really clearly – and with cost implications if needed. mohunky are very efficient and responsive, always picking up on our questions and helping as quickly as they can.
For me, that means a trusted partner to not only deliver the new website as we needed it, but that will help us maintain and improve it as required. It’s great to know that level of support is just a call away and we can manage our online presence (and budgets) without any stress.
