Q. What is Custom WebExpress™?
A. Custom WebExpress (CWE) is a unique website product and a new method for lawyers to build and maintain a website. Each Custom WebExpress site is pre-designed and fully functional. Instead of retaining a web design company to build a website from scratch, which is often more costly and time consuming, a law firm is able to select a CWE design from an online catalog of currently available legal website designs and instantly “launch” their new website by subscribing to Custom WebExpress.

Q. Are Custom WebExpress websites shared “templates?”
A. No. Once a Custom WebExpress design is selected, it is automatically removed from the gallery of custom designs and will not be available for use by any other law firm. However, NextClient also offers template websites that are based on a limited number of shared designs. Click here for more information on Template WebExpress™

NextClient developed a proprietary method of utilizing a database driven web hosting and editing system, coupled with a powerful dynamic graphic generator to offer a website product that is on-demand, as well as truly custom. The NextClient web designers can take any standardized graphical front-end web design, submit it into the CWE system and turn it into a fully functional website ready for a law firm to deploy.

Q. Which pages will my Custom WebExpress site have, and can I change them?
A. Your Custom WebExpress law firm website will automatically generate the following standard pages: “Home,” “Firm Overview,” “Attorney Profile,” “Newsletter,” “Contact Us,” “Directions,” and “Links.” The editing features allow you can easily rename the pages, limited only by the main menu space provided, which varies from design to design.

A. Yes. You can add subpages up to 2 levels down from the main menu items. For example, under the main menu heading of “Attorney Profile” subpages may be created with the biography of each attorney within the firm. Under each attorney’s biography, additional subpages may be created listing the attorney’s areas of specialization, publications or published cases, speaking engagements, or accomplishments.
