Ordinarily we'd recommend against using a large graphic on the home page. But this one is 45 K - big, but not too big. And the effect of the image slowly loading is a good one - and is certainly unique among law firm Web design. We would prefer subsections to be linked, however. Even though sections like "Litigation" and "Copyright" appear on the home page, they all link to the Table of Contents. This is neither intuitive nor user-friendly. Most of the frames pages need titles. Instead, the URL appears in the title bar. Navigation could be more consistent, but the content here is solid. This is a medium-sized intellectual property firm that has a lot of resources at its disposal, and once you've read through the site, you'll be convinced. With a little touch-up, the site would do a better job of showcasing that talent.
