The 2025 law firm homepage colour research shows a clear preference for light, cool-toned colours particularly blues, teals and purples. This indicates that users associate these hues with professionalism, trust and calm authority. The central brightness in the visual suggests that clean, lightly saturated colours are most appealing for legal websites.

Darker, bolder colours like deep reds and blacks appear less favored, while warm tones such as oranges and reds show limited appeal, likely due to their association with urgency or less formal industries. Earthy tones gain some traction, reflecting a sense of stability and tradition.

Overall, the findings suggest that modern, soft and cool colour palettes best support a trustworthy and professional law firm image online.
