A new homepage for a Swiss law firm

The trigger for the redesign was a browser warning about missing SSL encryption. That technical flaw became a welcome impulse to update not just the foundation, but the design and user guidance too.

The previous website was structured and clear, yet it had aged. Together with Davatz Legal, a new website took shape that does justice to the firm's personality — approachable, professional, on point. It conveys the firm's values and expertise and helps prospective clients orient themselves quickly.

Analysis and concept: The foundation for success

It all starts with “why”. In an intensive workshop, the core of the brand was uncovered together with the Davatz Legal team. Using methods like the Golden Circle, a strategic guardrail was defined that guided every subsequent decision. The goal: translating the firm's approachable attitude into a clear digital message.

Individual design: seriousness meets approachability

Standard themes are not adapted — an individual web design is developed for each client. Based on the defined strategy, several interactive live prototypes were developed. The Davatz Legal team experienced the future site firsthand and provided well-founded feedback. Requests such as a fixed header or a specific team page layout were implemented directly and efficiently, making the design process highly agile.

Efficient website development with a focus on added value

As a Swiss Squarespace Gold Partner, Noevu works on a platform that delivers security, stability and simplicity. Complex technical maintenance stays off the table — the focus stays on strategic implementation, design and usability. The result is a website for lawyers with a focus on inheritance law that is not only professional, but fundamentally robust and secure.

Extended and revised content that convinces

The services, from marriage and inheritance law to corporate law, are presented clearly and in plain language. The structure allows visitors to find relevant information quickly. This creates a solid foundation to increase the law firm's visibility and underline its expertise with SEO-optimized content.

Website launch and continuous optimization

The go-live was a complete success and was enthusiastically received by the Davatz Legal team. The site launched with a clean SEO structure and is continually improved through the service package. The included support hours ensure the site remains up-to-date and continuously optimized — with cost certainty and an experienced partner always at hand.

The result: A new website for lawyers that creates trust

The result is a modern, fast website that functions perfectly on all devices and authentically conveys the core values of Davatz Legal. The transformation from an error-prone site to a trustworthy digital flagship is obvious. The new online presence forms the ideal basis for future measures such as the creation of SEO-optimized content and sustainably strengthens the firm's position as a specialist lawyer in SAV inheritance law and an expert in inheritance and family law as well as corporate law in Zurich.

What has held up

With some distance, the early decisions prove their worth. The secure HTTPS foundation holds, and the strategy-first path through the Golden Circle produced a clear digital message that fits the firm. Davatz Legal comes across as serious and approachable at once — exactly as intended from the start. The project is a clean example of how Noevu works: strategy first, design second.
