How much does a law firm website cost in Nassau? Local agencies, freelancers and Kolonell compared (2026)

The verdict in three sentences

A Nassau law firm website usually costs 10 000 to 40 000+ USD with a Bahamian or Florida agency in 2026, and 3 000 to 10 000 USD with a freelancer, depending on how many practice areas and bios are in scope. Kolonell quotes a fixed 2 900, 4 900 or 8 900 USD, copywriting in native English included, with a project manager on Eastern time calls and 3 months of support after launch. Before choosing, put every quote on the same three-year grid: build, copy, support, maintenance and the cost of leaving.

What do Nassau agencies and freelancers charge in 2026?

The Bahamian legal market is built on financial services, private wealth, trusts and foundations, real estate and development, maritime and shipping, and litigation. Firms on Bay Street or in Cable Beach tend to choose between a few local studios and agencies in Miami or Fort Lauderdale, which serve the islands at Florida rates. The ranges below are a 2026 ballpark, deliberately wide, based on public rate cards of agencies serving the Bahamas, minimum project sizes visible on Clutch.co agency profiles and freelance platform rates (Upwork, Malt, Clutch listings). They vary by scope and are not official figures.

Kolonell is paid by bank transfer or Wise, 50 % to start, 50 % at delivery, and the domain is registered in the firm's name with every access handed over. Client portals or an online intake back office are custom applications, quoted on request. See the full inclusions on our international website offer.

What should a Nassau firm website show to win instructions?

Clients of a Bahamian firm are often abroad: a family office in New York, a yacht owner in Monaco, an investor buying a second home on Paradise Island, a Latin American family setting up a foundation. They judge the firm remotely, so the site does the first meeting.

• Practice pages that match how clients search: trusts and foundations, private wealth, corporate and financial services regulation, real estate and conveyancing, maritime and ship registration, immigration and residency, litigation. One page each, with who it is for and how the first call works.
• Attorney bios with year of call to the Bahamas Bar, other admissions, focus areas and languages. Spanish is useful for Latin American clients; French matters for clients from Europe and Canada.
• Proof of process, not results: how a matter is opened, documents required, typical steps. This stays within the boundaries that professional conduct rules on lawyer advertising set, which the firm must check for its own wording.
• Privacy and discretion: a privacy notice aligned with the Bahamas' data protection legislation, a contact form that asks for the minimum and states that it does not create an attorney client relationship.
• Accessibility and speed: built towards WCAG 2.1 AA, the common reference, and light pages for clients reading on a phone between flights.

This is not legal advice. For proof of delivery, Kolonell built TR Signing Group (trsigninggroup.com), a notary and apostille service in New Jersey, with a bilingual EN/FR site, per-file verified quote requests, a booking calendar, live chat and a back office, and Orven Properties (orvenproperties.com), an off-plan real estate advisory in Dubai, with a trilingual FR/EN/AR site, project pages and investor guides.

How do the options compare over three years?

To compare fairly, the table applies one planning assumption to every provider: 150 USD per month for hosting and maintenance from month 4. Kolonell maintenance after the 3 included months is quoted, so this is a budget line, not a price.

Read each quote with four questions: is the page list named, is copy included, what is the hourly rate after launch, and is there a dated delivery? If the answer to one of them is "to be discussed", the total will move. The team is based in Senegal (GMT), four to five hours ahead of Nassau depending on the season, so calls fit a Nassau morning, and you receive a written update every week.

Mini case study

Illustrative example, not a real client: a hypothetical three-attorney trusts and real estate firm in Nassau receives a local agency quote of 14 000 USD, plus a 250 USD monthly retainer. Over 36 months: 14 000 + (36 x 250) = 23 000 USD. With Kolonell Growth: 4 900 USD, 3 months of support included, then the planning assumption of 150 USD per month for 33 months, so 4 900 + 4 950 = 9 850 USD. The difference is 13 150 USD over three years, with a site live in 3 to 4 weeks.
