In my opionion, this is the best site I've designed at Page 1 Solutions. The client gave me total freedom to create this website. That can be a blessing and a curse. If you get out of control you might miss the mark. But, if you keep the clients goals in mind and work with what they give you, both parties can come away happy.

Some of their competitors have very nice, modern sites. Knowing that and the fact that a lot of people will see this site because they are based out of Philadelphia inspired me to create a top-notch site!

They have a great logo. The professional photos that were taken were impeccable. And the video was very well done. It's every designers dream to have such good materials to work with.

I found an incredible image of the Philadelphia skyline at dusk and I knew that would be the background of the site. I sampled the entire color palette for the website from this picture. That really put the site together.

I love all the elements you get above the fold on the index.html page; logo, contact info, video, animated banner, secondary navigation, scrolling ticker and a mini contact form. Every bit of that area was utilized but it doesn't feel cluttered or too busy.

The interior pages have HUGE banners with 4 pictures that cycle through. The secondary menu, verdicts & settlements ticker, and mini form move over to the left column and the content moves up. The cta's in the right column on the home page move to the bottom of the content area on the inner pages.

I think this site will stand the test of time and remain modern looking for many years.
