CMS is one of the leading international organizations of independent business law firms, with over 6,300 lawyers across 81 locations worldwide.
Together, we reimagined, designed, and supported the technical implementation of the global website. The new digital presence strengthens CMS’s positioning, offers users a consistent digital experience, and serves as a foundation for future digital services.
Stakeholder Management at Scale
CMS brings together 21 independent law firms under one common umbrella. To enable swift decision-making within this complex stakeholder environment, we developed an agile collaboration model with clear decision-making paths and communication structures. Through workshops and iterative prototypes, we were able to efficiently test and refine aligned concepts.
Development of a Flexible Design System
Together with CMS, we evolved the digital appearance to visually reflect their positioning as a forward-looking partner. The design system ensures a consistent brand presence across all digital channels while enabling flexible adaptations and further developments — laying the groundwork for future digital services.
Smart Content Management for Global and Local Teams in Over 45 Countries
The Insights Hub enables flexible content delivery—either globally consistent or tailored to regional needs. This ensures a cohesive brand presence worldwide, while allowing CMS firms to create locally relevant content.
A Thoughtful Structure for Clear User Guidance
The revamped information architecture helps users reach their goal quickly and efficiently. Intuitive navigation and clear structures ensure a seamless customer journey – from the first interaction to contact.
