/* =========================================================================
   Brian Foley Law PLLC — Design System v2  (Navy / White / Red)
   Principles applied (Justia, Scorpion, CRO research):
   - Red is reserved EXCLUSIVELY for contact/CTA buttons (it must signal "act")
   - Navy = structure & authority; white = space; one accent only
   - Trust signals high; phone always visible; fast (one webfont, swap)
   - Restrained type weights (700 max for display), left-aligned copy
