A Modern Website Built for High-Caliber Tax Counsel

Walter Shuffain Advisors needed a digital presence as polished, credible, and accessible as the guidance its team provides. The first-in-class firm provides tax, audit, and advisory services with clear answers and guidance. They have a proven track record and trusted client base, with a focus on thoughtful growth while remaining true to their core values. With this great track record, they needed a website that reflected their depth of experience.

The firm turned to e9digital to modernize its website, build on its established brand, and communicate its white-glove positioning to businesses and individuals throughout the Boston area. Walter Shuffain knew it could trust our team based on our work with accounting firm LMC.

Turning an Established Brand Into a Stronger Digital Experience

A new website did not require a new identity. Like renovating a landmark building, the goal was to preserve what made the brand recognizable while improving how people moved through the space. After all, 73% of decision-makers say thought leadership is a more trustworthy way to assess an organization’s capabilities than its marketing materials and product sheets. Because of this, we focused on highlighting the firm’s experience throughout the design.1

Our website designers created a website that:

  • Followed Walter Shuffain’s style guide closely, using its established fonts, colors, and visual identity.
  • Established a clear hierarchy, with prominent calls to action, client login access, and a payment link.
  • Supported their message with clear value propositions, differentiators, and experience statistics.
  • Organized services and industries into intuitive sections, pairing detailed interior pages with icon cards.
  • Built trust through thought leadership, email sign-up opportunities, and ADA-conscious color contrast.

The team was also able to balance team photography with carefully selected stock imagery. Our team at e9digital provided guidance on where original photos would make the greatest impact and offered to develop a shot list for the firm.

The result is a website that gives visitors a clear route from first impression to next step. 

Build a Website Worthy of Your Reputation

“I think the website looks great.” — David O’Neil, Chief Growth Officer | Walter Shuffain
