el Redactor

Information Architecture, UX/UI & Legal Publications Platform

El Redactor is a digital media outlet specializing in the publication of judicial edicts, legal notices, tenders, and judicial news in Uruguay.

Project Overview

The project involved a comprehensive redesign of the user experience (UX/UI) and information architecture to transform a traditional portal into an agile, intuitive, and functional digital platform. Dynamic conditional forms were implemented for receiving inquiries, alongside a search engine indexed by dates and categories to facilitate the location of legal notices.

The Challenge / Problem Solve

Search & Navigation Complexity: The large volume of legal and news publications required a robust structure to prevent information from becoming outdated or inaccessible to users.


Friction in Edict & Application Submissions: Users and industry professionals (lawyers, notaries, companies) needed a clear and dynamic workflow to quote and submit edict requests without making data entry errors.

Need for Visual Clarity & Integrity: Handling legal documents and judicial information demands a clean, trustworthy, accessible, and easily readable web design for both desktop and mobile devices.

The Solution

Date-Indexed Search Engine: Development and implementation of an advanced search and filtering system allowing users to locate edicts and legal texts based on their publication date and specific category.


Dynamic Conditional Form Flows: Creation of smart forms that adapt according to the user’s request type, simplifying document intake and streamlining internal operations.

Readability-Focused UX/UI Design: A clean, structured interface prioritizing typography, contrast, and visual hierarchy to ensure quick navigation through notices and news.

Business Benefits & Impact

Internal Operations Optimization: Automated data intake via dynamic forms reduced entry errors and the time spent on manual client support.

Enhanced User Experience: Date indexing and swift search capabilities allowed lawyers and users to find judicial records in seconds, increasing site retention.

Strengthened Brand Trust: A modern and organized platform consolidated El Redactor as a reliable benchmark for consulting and publishing legal notices in Uruguay.
