The use of color is evident throughout the site - and it is used consistently, which makes the entire site visit far more cohesive than many other sites. We like the search engine on the home page - if visitors aren't sure where they want to look, they can simply enter in the keywords and find it immediately. (However, when we used it, the following error appeared at the top of the search results page: "[ERROR: "set expire ..." must be inside an "httpheader ..." block] " Not good.) Attorney bio presentation is nice, and most of the information is exactly where you'd expect it. We encountered a few broken links, however (try clicking on "Denver" from the "Offices" page and see if you get the same "Document Moved" error we got), which is akin to your computer crashing. Error messages (especially most of the ones generated by web servers) provide little helpful information - which can only hinder a visitor's experience with the site. We're not sure why "Departments" and "Practice Groups" had to be separate categories, since the latter appears to be a subset of the former. While the presentation is quite crisp, we were frustrated by the numerous broken links (though, to their credit, at least when the document was moved they provided a link to the new location. But this begs the question: why not eliminate the middle step and simply make the NEW location load automatically?). A quick check of the site could improve the site experience considerably.
