The home page uses the narrative style effectively, but we'd omit the "welcome to our new site" language. Our favorite professional football players are those who do not celebrate after they score a touchdown. They let their actions on the field speak for themselves. Similarly, your site should speak for itself. No need to announce its newness. The navigation bar at the top of the page could benefit from the addition of mouse-over graphics, because without visual feedback, it was not obvious that this was a navigation bar. Text links on the left side of the page duplicate the top navigation bar. As they should, practice area pages link to the firm's attorneys who practice in that area. On some (but not all) of the subpages, a Yahoo-like navigation bar appears. This is very helpful, and we'd recommend extending it to the entire site. For example, you quickly learn from any attorney's profile page that that page exists as part of the "Firm Profile" section. It is a pleasure to see a site with logical - and logically presented - file/directory structure. A free e-mail newsletter is available, but the newsletter is not reproduced on the website. Some articles were online, but they were not dated. And the FAQs section was under construction. Search engine output could be improved by adding summary information for each found file. Despite the dearth of substantive content, this site does a lot right. With even more content and some fine-tuning, it could be even better.
