Murgitroyd Launches New-Look Website

Global intellectual property attorney firm Murgitroyd has today launched a new-look website.

It’s part of an extensive brand refresh carried out by the firm, which celebrated its 40th anniversary last year.

The new site’s modern design and simple navigation reflect the ease with which clients — and potential clients — can access the services they need.

“We’ve been leaders in our field for decades now,” said CEO Edward Murgitroyd. “It was time to create a site that reflected our position.

“As a firm, it’s our mission to make protecting and leveraging value from IP as trouble-free as possible. That’s why our new website makes finding the service, attorney or advice you’re looking for incredibly simple.”

Using the colours of the company’s brand refresh to identify different sections, the modern, vertical structure is easily navigable and clearly lays out the sectors, services and support Murgitroyd provides.

It’s also a true reflection of the company’s international standing, having been created by US-based digital marketing agency O3 and UK creative agency Mantra Content.

While the process has had its challenges, it has also, according to Edward Murgitroyd, been extremely rewarding.

“It’s been a real demonstration that there are no barriers to international working these days,” he said. “We’ve had countless virtual meetings and the project has gone without a hitch.

“It’s also been a useful exercise in re-evaluating the services we provide, in taking stock of our own offering and presenting it to our clients and potential clients in a clearer, more accessible way.

“That’s how we like to work. I’m pleased that developing this site was a sound example of our international ethos and structured, co-ordinated business approach.”
