Rivière

A law firm site written by someone who read what law firms actually publish.

Most law firm templates are a design with the word "Attorney" typed into it: a navy gradient, a gavel, a handshake, and three paragraphs of lorem ipsum where the practice areas should be. Rivière is the opposite. Every page ships with the copy a real firm would write, and the structure a real firm needs.

What makes it different

- Written in real legal language. Eight practice areas (family law, employment law for employees and for employers, criminal law, commercial leases, contract law, property law, wills and estates), each with its own body copy: what the firm does, and how a case actually unfolds.

- Jurisdiction-neutral by design. Nothing hard-codes a country. Every local value is a marked [CUSTOMIZE] placeholder.

- Compliance-ready copy. No superlative, no comparison with other firms, no promise of outcome, anywhere in the template.

- A legal-insights CMS as the SEO engine. Every insight is linked to a practice area: it surfaces on the home page, on that area's page, and on a filterable index. Publish when the law changes, and the whole site updates itself. This is the content that ranks.

- Editorial, not corporate. A display serif over a warm monochrome palette with a single deep-burgundy accent.

Inside

Remix it, replace the bracketed values, and publish.
