Each page introduces visitors to Eric’s world, guiding them through his journey, podcast, merch, and media offerings with smooth navigation and polished visuals. The design prioritizes clarity and connection through conversational content, clean layout, and consistent use of typography and color that reflect the Going Forward identity. From intuitive booking and contact flows to an immersive media kit and podcast hub, every design choice reinforces Eric’s story as a leader, marketer, and community advocate.

Sweeney Merrigan
At Clixsy, we set out to challenge the status quo of legal web design with Sweeney Merrigan’s new website. Our goal was to move beyond the templated, commoditized approach that has long defined the category. Instead of another iteration of a lawyer standing on courthouse steps, we created a brand experience that reframes how injury firms communicate value. By centering the design around client avatars—real representations of the people the firm serves and the lives restored through their work—we turned the idea of legal results into a human story of recovery and return to normal life. The finished site unifies Sweeney Merrigan’s digital presence with its television and outdoor campaigns, bringing consistency and emotion to every touchpoint. Every design and user experience choice was made to perform as beautifully as it looks, balancing aesthetic distinction with function and clarity. This project demonstrates that a law firm website can do more than inform. It can inspire, connect, and redefine what “great” means in the legal space.
