The verdict in three sentences
A Stockholm agency typically quotes a law firm website in a 2026 ballpark of 7 000 to 32 000+ EUR, with Swedish and English versions, lawyer profiles and a modest content hub. Freelancers in Sweden usually charge 2 500 to 9 000 EUR, but copywriting, security and continuity are often left to the firm. Kolonell's fixed grid of 2 700, 4 500 and 8 200 EUR covers the same core needs with native English copy, 3 months of support and delivery in 3 to 4 weeks, which makes it a strong benchmark before you sign a local quote.
How much do Stockholm providers charge for a law firm site?
The ranges below are 2026 ballpark figures from public rate cards of Swedish digital agencies (published in SEK and converted to EUR), Clutch.co agency profiles listing minimum project sizes, and freelance rates seen on Upwork and Malt. They are wide on purpose: the number of practice areas, the depth of lawyer profiles and the integrations requested move the price more than the city does.
| Provider type | Price range for a firm site | Typical timeline | Copywriting | Support after launch |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Large Stockholm agency | 15 000 to 32 000+ EUR | 10 to 14 weeks | Often a separate line | Monthly retainer |
| Small Stockholm studio | 7 000 to 15 000 EUR | 6 to 10 weeks | Partly included | Retainer or hourly |
| Swedish freelancer | 2 500 to 9 000 EUR | 4 to 10 weeks | Rarely included | Ad hoc |
| Website builder done in house | Subscription plus partner time | Variable | By the firm | None |
| Kolonell | 2 700 / 4 500 / 8 200 EUR | 3 to 4 weeks (Premium: usually 4 to 6) | Native English or French included | 3 months included |

What is the real 3-year cost?
A site is not a one-off purchase: hosting, updates and small changes keep coming. The table uses wide 2026 ranges for local providers and the fixed Kolonell grid. Kolonell maintenance after the included 3 months is quoted, so it appears as such.
| Cost line over 3 years | Stockholm agency | Swedish freelancer | Kolonell Growth |
|---|---|---|---|
| Build | 7 000 to 32 000+ EUR | 2 500 to 9 000 EUR | 4 500 EUR |
| Copywriting | 1 000 to 5 000 EUR if extra | Often by the firm | Included |
| Support, first 3 months | Usually in retainer | Hourly | Included |
| Maintenance, months 4 to 36 | Retainer, varies widely | Hourly, varies | Quoted on request |
| Second language | Often extra | Depends | Bilingual FR/EN from Premium |
| Exit costs | Check the contract | Check | None: code, domain and access are yours |
What a Stockholm law firm site has to get right
- Swedish and English from day one: Stockholm's business clients, start-ups and foreign investors read English; private clients and public bodies expect Swedish. Kolonell writes native English or French, and Swedish copy is supplied by the firm or scoped in the quote.
- Practice areas built around buyer questions: tech and IP, employment, M&A, public procurement, disputes, family and estates. Each page explains typical matters, the team and how to start.
- Lawyer profiles with substance: bar membership, languages, sectors, publications.
- Data protection and accessibility: GDPR applies to every form and tracking tool, supervised in Sweden by the Swedish Authority for Privacy Protection (IMY). The European Accessibility Act applies from 28 June 2025 to certain services; WCAG 2.1 AA is a sensible target anyway. Professional conduct rules on lawyer advertising exist and must be checked by the firm. This is not legal advice.
- Intake that respects privilege: a short form, a clear notice not to send confidential details before a conflict check, and secure handling of attachments.
For a reference on secure intake, Kolonell built for TR Signing Group (trsigninggroup.com), a notary and apostille service in New Jersey, a bilingual EN/FR site with quote requests, per-file verification, booking calendar, live chat and back office.
Red flags in a Stockholm quote
- A price "from" with no list of pages and practice areas.
- Copywriting described as "client supplies content".
- The domain or hosting account registered by the agency.
- No written figure for maintenance after launch.
- A proprietary platform that only the agency can edit.

Mini case study
Illustrative example, not a real client. Johan is a partner in a six-lawyer tech and IP boutique in Stockholm. A small local studio quotes 15 000 EUR for a custom-designed site. He compares it with Kolonell Premium at 8 200 EUR. Working hypothesis: 180 EUR per month of maintenance with either provider (Kolonell maintenance after the 3 included months is quoted).
- Local studio over 3 years: 15 000 + 36 x 180 = 21 480 EUR.
- Kolonell Premium over 3 years: 8 200 + 33 x 180 = 14 140 EUR.
- Difference: 7 340 EUR, about 34 % less. The gap is smaller than with a large agency, which is a fair result: small Stockholm studios are competitive, and the decision then rests on timeline and copywriting.
FAQ
Is a Stockholm studio always more expensive?
Not always: small studios can quote around 7 000 EUR, close to Kolonell Premium at 8 200 EUR. The difference then comes from included copywriting, 3 months of support and the 3 to 4 week timeline.
Can the site be in Swedish?
Yes, the structure supports Swedish; the copy is supplied by your team or scoped in the quote. Kolonell writes native English or French, included in every tier.
What happens after the 3 months of support?
You keep full access and can work with anyone. Kolonell maintenance after that is quoted on request.
How are meetings handled?
On Google Meet at a time that suits you, with a written weekly update. The team is based in Senegal (GMT), one or two hours behind Stockholm.
Can we add a client portal?
Yes, a client portal or secure document exchange is a custom application, quoted on request, and can follow a 4 500 EUR Growth site.
