Client Spotlight: 18th Judicial District Attorney’s Office Tony Clayton, District Attorney

Some websites sell a product. Others serve a community. The 18th Judicial District Attorney’s Office needed the latter, and it needed to work for three parishes at once.

The Problem

The 18th Judicial District Attorney’s Office serves three Louisiana parishes: Iberville, West Baton Rouge, and Pointe Coupee. But their website was not reflecting that responsibility. Residents struggled to find victim resources, pay traffic tickets, and connect with the office. For a public office built on service, that gap mattered.

The Discovery

Working alongside the 18th JDA team, we mapped out what the site needed to do for the communities it serves. Together we identified the resources residents needed most and built a plan to reflect the strength of the office.

This is where the work always starts for us: understanding who a website actually needs to serve before a single design decision gets made.

The Solution

We rebuilt the site with:

  • A dedicated victim resources section
  • Traffic pre-trial quick links
  • A news hub to keep residents informed
  • Parish contact information, clearly organized across all three parishes
  • A bold new design that finally reflects the credibility of the office
  • The Outcome

The new 18th JDA website is now a true public resource for Iberville, West Baton Rouge, and Pointe Coupee. Residents can find help fast, stay informed, and connect with the office and its leadership, all in one place, built around what they actually need.

Hear From Our Client

“Working with Torapath Digital Marketing on the 18th JDA website was a great experience from start to finish. They took the time to truly understand what the office needed and who it serves before anything was built. The end result is a site that reflects the professionalism and community commitment of DA Tony Clayton’s office. They were responsive, easy to work with, and made the whole process smooth. I am proud of what we delivered together and confident it will serve the three parishes well for years to come.”

— Ellie Hebert, Peacock Communications, 18th JDA

On Our Radar

Over 80% of people turn to the internet first when searching for legal resources or government services, making a clear and accessible website critical for any public office.

73% of citizens say they are more likely to trust a government office that has a modern, easy to navigate website, regardless of how well known the office already is.

Government websites with streamlined navigation and clear calls to action see up to 50% more resident engagement than those with outdated designs and buried information.

A Website That Works as Hard as You Do

Whether you’re a public office, a growing business, or somewhere in between, your website should meet people exactly where they are and get them to what they need, fast. That’s the standard we build to, every time.
