Here are two specific web design trends that have piqued our interest….

- Dark mode option on mobile and desktop will be critical for UX, but also for preference in the search engines and browsers that offer a ‘dark mode’ option.
As clients are starting to prefer online exchanges with law firms, and comparing sites to competitors, accessibility will be just as important as noticeability.
