/* ==========================================================================
   Merrick & Thorne Solicitors — design system
   "Legal document" aesthetic: ink-navy-near-black text on warm parchment,
   deep burgundy used sparingly as an official-stamp accent. Newsreader
   (display serif) + Public Sans (body) — both unused elsewhere on this
   platform. Deliberately structured differently from every other Try My
   Site template: no hero photo, document-clause section dividers, a
   numbered practice-area index instead of icon cards, a formal team
   directory list instead of a photo-card grid, and pull-quote testimonials
   instead of a carousel. See the site's CLAUDE.md for the full brief.
