Website Audit for Law Firms in Vancouver

Vancouver legal search is one of the most expensive paid markets in Canada — so for most firms here, organic visibility and trust are what actually win the case enquiry. The free instant scan reads your live site the way Google and AI do, then hands you a score out of 100 and your top issues in seconds. No signup, nothing upfront.

Why this page exists

A scan built around how Vancouver clients actually pick a lawyer.

Whether you handle ICBC and personal injury out of a Burrard Street tower, run a family-law practice in Kitsilano, or do immigration and corporate work for the city's cross-border economy, your prospective clients almost never call the first ad they see. In an affluent, design-literate, west-coast market, they research. They read a Google rich result, skim an AI answer, open three firm sites in tabs, judge each one in seconds, and quietly close the two that feel thin or slow. The firm that gets the consultation is rarely the one that paid the most per click — it's the one whose site was structured so search and AI could understand it and so a careful buyer could trust it. The free instant scan is the fastest way to see where your site stands on exactly that, before you spend another dollar on Vancouver's punishing legal CPCs.

The quiet leaks

Where law firm sites in Vancouver quietly leak.

These aren't generic gripes — they're the specific patterns that drain qualified case enquiries from Vancouver legal sites in particular.

01 / Schema

No Attorney or LegalService markup

Without Attorney/LegalService schema, Google and AI can't tell which practice areas you cover or which lawyers stand behind them. In a city where searchers compare three firms before calling, an unmarked page reads as a flat block of text — and gets passed over for the firm whose data is spelled out.

02 / Architecture

Practice-area pages buried 4 clicks deep

ICBC, family, immigration and corporate pages often sit three or four clicks down, with link authority split across near-duplicate URLs. None of them ranks because the site can't decide which page is the real one — so your strongest practice area loses to a smaller firm with one clean, well-linked page.

03 / E-E-A-T

Thin, anonymous bios on YMYL pages

Legal advice is "your money or your life" content, so Google holds it to a high E-E-A-T bar. Stock headshots, one-line bios and no bar admissions or named author quietly cap how high any page can climb — and a Vancouver client deciding who to trust with a settlement feels the same gap.

04 / Security

Non-HTTPS or insecure intake forms

A contact or case-evaluation form served over plain HTTP, or posting to an insecure endpoint, triggers browser warnings and erodes trust at the exact moment a prospect is about to share sensitive matter details. Qualified enquiries die on that form instead of reaching your intake desk.

The free scan

What the free instant scan shows you.

In seconds, on your live site, with no signup and no card — the free scan gives you two things:

  • A score out of 100 — an at-a-glance read of how your firm's site stacks up for humans, search and AI right now.
  • Your top issues — the handful of problems hurting you most, in plain English, so you know whether there's something worth fixing before you read another word.

That's it — fast, honest, free. It's not the full 149-check report (that's the deep audit below); it's the instant gut-check that tells you whether your Vancouver firm's site is leaking, and roughly where. Run the free instant scan →

More free

Try the 12 free tools, too.

Beyond the scan, there's a small suite of free, no-signup tools you can point at your firm's site for a quick single-issue read — a fast website checkup, a Core Web Vitals check (how fast and stable your pages feel on mobile), and an AI-crawler check that tells you whether assistants can even read and quote you. Handy for sanity-checking one practice-area page at a time. Browse the 12 free tools →

When you want the full picture

The $297 deep audit — 149 checks across 15 categories.

When the free scan confirms there's something worth fixing, the deep audit is the human-reviewed report behind it. 149 checks across 15 categories — every finding ranked by what it's actually costing your firm in lost enquiries, each with the exact fix and the reason it matters. Built for legal sites: Attorney/LegalService schema gaps page by page, the practice-area architecture and internal-link map, the E-E-A-T read on your lawyer bios, intake-form security, and Core Web Vitals on mobile where most Vancouver clients first land.

After the audit

Fix it once — then keep it watched.

Legal sites drift: a new associate joins, a practice area is added, a plugin update quietly breaks a schema block or an intake form. For firms that want to stay ahead of it, there's an optional monitoring membership — recurring re-scans that catch regressions early and always-on uptime monitoring, so a broken intake form or a downed page gets flagged before it costs you a case. Soft, no pressure — ask about it once your report lands.

The human behind it

Tools find the problem. Rebuilding the structure is where I come in.

The scan and the tools will tell you what's broken. But when a Vancouver firm needs someone to actually rebuild the information architecture, wire the Attorney/LegalService schema correctly, flatten buried practice-area pages and harden the intake flow — that's a Technical Web Architect's job, and that's me, Jerome Bilaos. I'm based in the Philippines and serve Vancouver firms remotely; the timezone is a feature, not a bug — Vancouver morning is my evening, so work often lands while your Pacific-Time office sleeps. No local office address, no fabricated NAP — just real contact and real work.

FAQ

Vancouver law firms — questions, answered.

Is the scan really free for my Vancouver law firm's website?

Yes. The instant scan returns a score out of 100 and your top issues in seconds — no signup, nothing to pay. The deep audit ($297) is optional, only if you want the full 149-check report.

Why do Vancouver firms need Attorney and LegalService schema specifically?

Vancouver is one of the most expensive legal-search markets in Canada, so paid clicks are brutal and organic + trust decide who gets the call. Attorney and LegalService schema tells Google and AI which practice areas and which lawyers you cover, so you surface in rich results and AI answers instead of being a flat, undifferentiated page.

You're based in the Philippines — can you audit a BC firm remotely?

Yes, the whole engagement is remote. The PH timezone is a fit: Vancouver morning is Manila evening, so your overnight is my working window and findings are often waiting when your office opens on Pacific Time.

Will an audit help if my practice-area pages are buried deep in the site?

That's a core finding. When ICBC, family or immigration pages sit four clicks down and link authority is split across near-duplicate URLs, no single page ranks. The audit maps the depth and shows how to flatten and consolidate it.

What about thin lawyer bios and our intake form?

Legal is YMYL, so anonymous or thin bios fail E-E-A-T and quietly cap how high any page can rank. A non-HTTPS or insecure intake form also loses qualified case enquiries. The scan flags both; the deep audit prescribes the exact fix.

What's the difference between the free scan and the $297 deep audit?

The free scan is an instant score plus your top issues. The $297 deep audit is the human-reviewed report — 149 checks across 15 categories, every issue ranked by what it's costing you, with the exact fix and the reason it matters.
