Creating a website is critical for every lawyer today. It is as important as (or, I would argue, more important than) printing business cards.

I thought it would be interesting to review some of our member profiles and pick a few websites that were both simple to build and professional-looking.

Here is a list of LEXpertise members that I liked:
