Your firm's website is often the first impression a prospective client gets. It needs to be fast, available, and hosted on infrastructure that treats client confidentiality seriously, with email that actually reaches the inbox of opposing counsel, the court clerk, and the new client on the other end. That is what Ultra hosts for solo attorneys and small law firms.
We have been hosting professional websites since 2002 from a data center we own and operate. Every plan includes free SSL across the whole site, CloudLinux CageFS isolation that fully separates your firm from every other account on the server, professional email at your firm's domain with proper SPF/DKIM/DMARC for deliverability, and automated daily backups. The shared plan at $3.95/mo fits most solo and small firms; the Managed VPS plan at $49.95/mo adds a dedicated IP and stronger isolation for firms that want it.
Note on practice management: Ultra hosts your firm's marketing website and email. Confidential matter management, billing, and client portals typically live in a dedicated practice management platform like Clio, MyCase, PracticePanther, Smokeball, or Rocket Matter. Your website lives on Ultra and routes clients to those platforms via links, scheduling widgets, or intake redirects. Contact us if you want to talk through your specific setup.
Hosting that fits the size of your firm, with the same underlying infrastructure that supports our HIPAA-tier customers.
Right-sized for solo attorneys & small practices
The reliability, confidentiality, and email features that actually move the needle for solo attorneys and small firms.
Free Let's Encrypt SSL is included on every plan and renews automatically. Your bio pages, contact form, and any client-facing portal links all load over HTTPS, so connection data is encrypted end-to-end between the visitor's browser and the server. Required these days for visitor trust and modern browser compatibility.
Every shared hosting account runs inside CloudLinux CageFS, a per-account container that fully isolates your firm's files, databases, processes, and email from every other account on the server. Neighboring sites cannot read your content even if they are compromised.
Professional email at you@yourfirm.com with full SPF, DKIM, and DMARC support. Our team helps configure DNS records correctly so your messages land in client inboxes and opposing-counsel inboxes, not spam folders. Dedicated outbound IPs available on VPS plans for firms that send higher volume.
Your firm's website lives on physical servers we own and operate in our own data center, not rented rack space in a third-party facility. Our staff are the only personnel with physical access to the hardware. For firms that care about where their data actually sits, this is meaningful.
Automated daily backups with 7-30 days of retention depending on plan tier. Self-service restores via cPanel for files and databases, or our support team can do a full account restore from a ticket within a couple of hours. Your website can roll back from a bad plugin update or accidental deletion without drama.
Our support team works from our own data center, answering tickets, live chat, and phone calls around the clock. The same technicians who maintain the platform are the ones replying to your ticket. Most law firms find this is the biggest day-to-day difference compared to large national hosts where L1 support is offshored.
SSD storage, LiteSpeed and Nginx caching layers, optimized PHP, free Cloudflare CDN integration, and 99.9% uptime backed by a real guarantee. A slow or down website during business hours costs a firm new-matter opportunities; our infrastructure is built to keep that from happening.

Your firm's website is doing four jobs: showing prospective clients who you are, providing a way for them to contact you, sending and receiving email at your firm's domain, and (sometimes) routing existing clients to your practice management system's portal. Ultra handles all four directly. Your matter management, billing, and confidential client data live inside your practice management platform of choice; we host the public website that points at it.
For most solo and small firms, this is the right separation. The hosting bill stays small, email is reliable, the website is fast, and the confidential workflow stays inside a platform built for that purpose. Have a specific question about your setup? Our team can talk through it with you.

Yes. The shared hosting plan at $3.95/mo covers a marketing site, contact forms, and professional email for nearly all solo attorneys and small firms. Practices that handle particularly sensitive workflows or need stronger isolation can step up to Managed VPS at $49.95/mo for a dedicated IP and stronger CloudLinux CageFS isolation. The underlying infrastructure is the same that hosts our HIPAA-tier customers; the law firm angle is about confidentiality, reliable email, and uptime rather than HIPAA-specific compliance.
Email deliverability is one of the biggest pain points for law firms. Ultra provides professional email at your firm's domain (you@yourfirm.com) with full SPF, DKIM, and DMARC support, dedicated outbound IPs available on VPS plans, and active sender reputation monitoring. Our team helps configure DNS records properly so your messages land in inboxes, not spam folders. This matters especially for client correspondence, scheduling, and time-sensitive court communications.
Every shared hosting account runs inside CloudLinux CageFS, a chroot-style container that fully isolates your files, databases, processes, and email from every other account on the server. Neighboring sites cannot see or access your content even if they are compromised. For firms that want stronger separation, the Managed VPS plan gives you a dedicated IP address and your own virtualized environment.
Automated daily backups are included on every plan, with 7-30 days of retention depending on tier. Restores are self-service via cPanel for files and databases, or our support team can perform a full account restore from a ticket within a couple of hours. We recommend law firms also keep an off-host backup of any case-related documents or client records, since the website is rarely the system of record for matter management.
Yes. Ultra hosts your firm's public website and email; client portals, matter management, billing, and document storage typically live in a dedicated practice management platform like Clio, MyCase, PracticePanther, Smokeball, or Rocket Matter. The public website integrates via links, embedded scheduling widgets, or intake form redirects to those platforms. This clean separation keeps confidential client data inside the practice management system (which has its own access controls and BAA where applicable) while the marketing website lives on Ultra.
Free Let's Encrypt SSL is included on every plan and auto-renews. The full site loads over HTTPS, so contact forms and any client intake fields are encrypted in transit. For forms that collect particularly sensitive matter details, we recommend keeping the form fields minimal (name, contact, brief description) and following up through your practice management system rather than continuing detailed discussion over plain email.
Yes. Free website migration is included with any annual or longer plan. Our migration team handles cPanel-to-cPanel transfers, WordPress sites, database moves, and email account migration. Most firm websites move within 24-48 hours with no downtime, and we coordinate the DNS cutover so client emails keep flowing during the transition. Just open a ticket with your current host's credentials after signing up.
The shared plan at $3.95/mo is already priced for solo practitioners and small firms. We also include a 45-day money-back guarantee, free domain with annual orders, and a 10% price-match guarantee against comparable plans from other US-based hosts. If you are switching from a larger national host that has been quietly raising your renewal price, our straightforward pricing is usually a noticeable cost reduction.
