So this one has been a while coming. Today I shipped Rooling – a new commercial WordPress theme designed specifically for lawyers, law firms, attorneys, Lionel Hutz wannabes – you get the idea. I’ve spent the past few months building a pretty decent framework for my own custom WordPress themes. Nothing groundbreaking really, just pulling together lots of little code snippets from around the WordPress ecosystem. I’ve got it to a point that I’m very happy with the mechanics of how I put together themes and ensuring the code quality is on a par with the most well known theme shops out there. I intend following up with some further posts in the coming days about how Rooling was built so for now, on with the skinny on the theme itself!
About Rooling
I created the Rooling WordPress theme because there are just not enough WordPress themes designed specifically for law firms and businesses with a focus on legal services. Rooling is designed from the ground up to be perfect for any website that operates in the legal industry. Whether it’s a massive law firm or a small private firm, Rooling’s sharp and professional design will make your business stand out from the crowd. While optimized for corporate/legal firms, Rooling is a great theme for any corporate business website.
