legal recruiting website

see entries

I am a person in my early 30s who is starting my own legal recruiting boutique- with a CA focus. I've worked as a lawyer for large law firms, and then got into the legal search business by working with a boutique legal search firm. I now want to start my own search firm, and maybe hire a few recruiters to work with me down the road.

My target audience will be associate attorneys (aged 25 to 40) and junior partners (aged 35 to 60), so I will need a logo that caters to a wide age range. My target clientele consists only lawyers (some stuffy, some more edgy), and law firms (same-- some stuffy, some edgy). The people looking at my site will be folks wanting to switch jobs, and wanting to work with someone professional, confidential, candid and trustworthy.

Style:
-clean, modern, subtle
-i like orange and dark blue (together)

Design:
-i prefer design over stock photos (though may use some small ones).

-aesthetically pretty, yet simple-- UNCLUTTERED

-easy to navigate

-nothing cheesy please! no flourescent colors or cartoons, nothing flashy

Content:
I am looking for several pages:

(1) The first is a home page/landing page. The home page needs to have the following navigation tabs at the top: (1) Home, (2) About Us; (3) Contact Us; and (4) Testimonials. I would also like a tagline in there that says "Let Us Guide Your Search" or something similar, playing on the word "Search." I will be uploading a logo shortly (likely to be orange and dark blue). I would also like there to be one testimonial (a reference from a candidate) listed on the webpage (pls use the Latin text-filler until I can get you the testimonial).

(2) The second design is a basic design /a more general back page that can be tailored (maybe with a different photo or simple design per page) for the following other pages:
(a) an "about us" page,
(b) a "contact us" page, and
(c) a "testimonials" page.
