Andre Gaston is an attorney in Illinois focusing on criminal and employment law as well as civil rights and motor vehicle accidents. Mr. Gaston contacted me in 2014 because he was in need of someone who could update an existing website and make some changes and additions. It’s always a challenge to work with a website that’s been pre-designed. The site was WordPress with a custom theme. The site incorporated Simple Page SideBars to add search and additional images. The site also used ContactForm7 and an embedded Google Map.
I continued to handle regular maintenance, backups and small changes to the site as needed.
In 2019 Mr. Gaston again contacted me to pursue a full website redesign. His firm was rebranding from “Law Office of Andre P. Gaston, P.C.” to “Gaston, L.L.P.”. We decided to stay with WordPress and build the new site using the Bridge theme from Qode. We added animated sliders and hover-effects on buttons to a sleek gold-and-black color scheme. I managed a graphic designer to help us change the logo and other brand assets. I also managed the switch-over to the new domain name. The new site is significantly more responsive and mobile-friendly.
