A law firm's site whose clients disappeared; the teardown showed exactly where the enquiries were leaking

What it is

A law firm site on MODX, one of the cluster of Ukrainian projects in the group. In August 2026 it got a full forensic teardown around the owner's question: where did the clients go after 5 August. We found a live server instead of an empty shell, unpicked the lead routing through mail forwards, justified a disavow and repaired what could be repaired. Waves of speed, analytics and indexing followed.
