Attorney bios that lag staffing reality
Two associates joined last quarter and aren't on the site. A senior partner left three months ago and is still listed. Prospects research the firm and find a roster that doesn't exist.
For law firms
A website that keeps up with your practice.
Attorneys join. Practice areas evolve. Case results accumulate. Bar advertising rules don't change, but the way you describe your work does. Otto operates your firm's public website so the front door of your practice always reflects today's reality — accurately and within compliance.
· The reality
Law firm websites have a practice description problem.
Most law firm websites don't need a redesign. They need someone — or something — that consistently keeps attorney bios, practice areas, and firm news accurate, current, and within bar advertising rules. Prospects and referral sources notice when they're not.
Practice areas that haven't been updated since the firm pivoted
The firm started doing immigration work two years ago. The website still leads with the original family-law focus. Search engines and referral sources never get the signal.
Case results stuck in 2022
The wins from the last 18 months never made it onto the site. Prospects looking for evidence of recent capability find a "Recent Results" page from before the pandemic.
Bar compliance copy drift
An associate writes a client testimonial that crosses the line. A practice page mentions a result without the required disclaimer. Otto knows your jurisdiction's bar rules and flags problematic copy before it publishes.
Local SEO for legal searches
When prospects search 'family lawyer' plus your city, your firm shows up six results down. Otto handles the local SEO basics — Google Business profile, schema markup, location pages — that determine whether you show up at all.
News, awards, and recognition that never get added
The firm got named to a Super Lawyers list. The senior partner spoke at a CLE. A case win made the local news. None of it makes it onto the website. Otto keeps the news section current.

· In practice
How Vega & Associates rebuilt their website's accuracy without rebuilding their website.
RV
Roberto Vega
Managing Partner, Vega & Associates
Vega & Associates is a 12-attorney boutique firm in Old San Juan focused on commercial litigation and immigration law. Before Otto, the website was perpetually out of date. Two attorneys had joined the firm in 2024 and weren't on the site. A practice area expansion into immigration was buried three clicks deep. Recent case results stopped getting added in 2022. Roberto knew the firm's website was hurting referrals but never had the bandwidth to keep it current.
Now Roberto and the firm administrator email Otto whenever something changes — a new associate's start date, a notable case result, a CLE speaking engagement, an award. Otto handles the rest: the bio updates, the news section additions, the local listings, the schema markup. Otto also flags bar-compliance issues before they publish — a detail that gives Roberto peace of mind in a profession where copy mistakes have real consequences.
“Our website used to be six months behind reality. Otto closed that gap in two weeks and keeps it closed. The bar-compliance flagging is the part I didn't know I needed until I had it.”

· Trust & safety
Built to protect your clients and your bar standing.
Law firms operate under stricter rules than most industries. Otto is built to respect those rules — confidentiality, bar advertising compliance, and approval-gated changes are foundational, not afterthoughts.
Confidentiality protected
Otto never accesses client files, matter information, or any non-public firm data. The website is the only surface Otto operates on. Your case management system, billing, document storage — all entirely off-limits and outside Otto's reach.
Bar advertising compliance
Otto knows the bar advertising rules in your jurisdiction. Specialty claims require verified credentials. Case results carry required disclaimers. Comparative claims and guarantees get flagged before publish. Compliance is a guardrail, not an afterthought.
Attorney content requires explicit approval
Anything related to attorney biographies, certifications, areas of practice, or case results requires explicit sign-off from a designated firm contact. Otto drafts and prepares; humans approve. This isn't configurable — it's a hard rule.
