Solution

Our team at Ten10 embarked on a collaborative journey with Houlihan Solicitors. Through a series of brainstorming sessions and iterative feedback loops, we:

User-Focused Design

Crafted a responsive website layout that prioritises user experience, ensuring clients can easily access the information they need.

Brand Integration

Seamlessly integrated Houlihan Solicitors’ branding into the design, reinforcing their established market presence.

SEO-Optimised Content

Balanced technical jargon with layman’s terms, ensuring the website is both search engine-friendly and accessible to visitors of all backgrounds.

Interactive Features

Implemented features like live chat and contact forms, facilitating instant communication between clients and the firm.

Casetalk App

A key requirement was also to integrate the innovative “Case Talk App” into the website. This app, a game-changer in legal client communication, offers clients instant access to their legal files, 24/7 direct support via chat, regular case updates, and the ability to sign documents digitally. Incorporating this app was essential to emphasise a commitment to modern, client-focused service.

The task was clear: design a site that was not only aesthetically pleasing and user-friendly but also robust in its functionality, emphasising ease of use and the groundbreaking features of the “Case Talk App”.

Technologies Used

At Ten10.ie, we employ state-of-the-art technologies to ensure our clients receive a robust and efficient digital platform. For this project, we utilised the following technical stack:

The site is hosted on a lightspeed server, renowned for its rapid response times and optimal performance. Coupled with SSD drives, this ensures lightning-fast data retrieval and an overall smooth user experience.

This image is displaying a performance report for the website http://houlihansolicitors.ie/, generated on October 9, 2023, using Chrome (Desktop) 103.0.5060.134, Lighthouse 9.6.4, showing the GTmetrix Grade, Web Vitals, Performance, Structure, Largest Contentful Paint, Total Blocking Time, and Cumulative Layout Shift as 100%, 99%, 648ms, 0ms, respectively.

To further enhance the site’s speed and responsiveness, we implemented advanced browser and object caching techniques. Specifically, we integrated Memcached, a high-performance distributed memory object caching system. This reduces database load by caching data and objects in RAM, ensuring instantaneous page load times.

This image is showing the page load time and PageSpeed score before and after a change was made, as well as the improvement in both metrics.

The website was developed using WordPress, the world’s most popular content management system, known for its flexibility and user-friendly interface. This choice allowed us to provide a customisable and easily manageable backend for the team.

By harnessing these technologies, we created a WordPress website solution that offers a seamless, efficient, and secure experience for its users, befitting its professional stature.
