Accessibility Statement
What we aim for, what we have tested, what we know is imperfect and how to tell us when something does not work. Last updated 3 August 2026.
Our commitment
We aim to meet the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines version 2.1 at level AA on this website. We treat accessibility as part of building a site rather than as a remediation exercise afterwards, and we hold the sites we build for clients to the same standard.
This statement describes the current position honestly, including where we fall short. A statement that claims perfection is not useful to anybody.
What we have done
- Text and background colors checked to meet contrast requirements, including in both light and dark presentation.
- Every interactive element reachable and operable with a keyboard alone, with a visible focus indicator.
- Headings used in a meaningful order so a screen reader user can navigate by structure.
- Images given text alternatives, and decorative images marked so they are skipped.
- Forms with labels that are programmatically associated, and errors described in text rather than by color alone.
- Motion and animation reduced automatically when the operating system requests reduced motion.
- Page structure that reflows at 400 per cent zoom without loss of content.
How we test
We test with automated tooling on every build, and manually with keyboard-only navigation and with a screen reader on the pages that carry the main journeys. Automated testing alone catches only a portion of real problems, which is why the manual pass exists.
Known limitations
We are aware of the following and are working on them.
- Some third-party embedded content, such as maps, does not fully meet the standard and is outside our direct control. Where that is the case we provide the same information in text.
- Older uploaded documents may not be fully tagged for screen readers. If you need one in an accessible format, ask us and we will provide it.
- Some data tables in reports are complex and may be difficult to interpret with a screen reader. We will supply the underlying data in another format on request.
Tell us when something does not work
If you cannot use part of this site, we want to know, and we will treat it as a defect rather than a suggestion. Contact us through the form on this site, or ask for an alternative contact route if the form itself is the problem.
We aim to acknowledge accessibility reports within two working days and to tell you what we intend to do and by when.
Accessibility on client sites
For law firm clients, accessibility is part of the build rather than an add-on, and it matters commercially as well as ethically. It matters most acutely in practice areas whose clients are defined by disability — a disability practice whose own contact form cannot be completed with a screen reader is losing the clients it exists to serve.
