Vancouver – The Law Society has rolled out its new website, which has been completely overhauled to achieve a number of objectives.

The new site, located at www.lawsociety.bc.ca, is intended to provide better access to information for all key stakeholders, particularly the public, lawyers and media. In addition to a more contemporary look and feel, the site has been reorganized to be more user-friendly, provide greater transparency to Law Society work, and to take advantage of current best practices in web design.

“We’ve always had an extensive amount of information on our website,” explains Robyn Crisanti, Manager, Communications and Public Relations, “but it hasn’t always been easy to find. Instead we have organized content based on our users and their needs, not our internal processes or departments, which we hope will make finding things more intuitive.”
