Community
The world's fastest growing in-house legal community
We know the in-house legal experience can feel isolating, hard to navigate, and undervalued. But, this shouldn’t be the norm. We are redefining the experience with a community space where in-house legal professionals can become the best version of themselves professionally and personally.
Crafty Counsel is a dynamic and fast-growing legal Community with members from across the globe. Our members represent a diverse range of professional backgrounds and the Community is a hub for sharing experiences, learning together and forming invaluable connections.

As a relatively small team we can’t be everywhere, but we still wanted to provide the whole Community opportunities to meet, connect, and learn together. That’s how Crafty Locals was born! Crafty Locals are meetups held under the Crafty Counsel banner by members of our Community, across the world. Locations include: Amsterdam, Bristol, Warsaw, Manchester, Abu Dhabi, Cambridge, Luxembourg, Nairobi, Stockholm, Leeds.
In three words, I would sum up Crafty Counsel as community, conversation and collaboration. You really have the feeling we are all in this together.

For me, this represented the best of the in-house legal profession - a group of like-minded people who genuinely want the best for the profession and to inspire the next generation.

Crafty talks about Joy, Insight and Connection. You’ve all given me this and so much more; friends, a professional network and so many supportive and interesting connections.
