In 2016, Ben White left the world of private practice at Clifford Chance to join the in-house legal team at a tech company. In making this transition, he discovered his extended network of legal colleagues, knowledge, and resources was considerably smaller. Ben realised he probably wasn’t the only lawyer to have made the move in-house and feel this way. So, in 2018, he started a side hustle to provide in-house lawyers with content that mattered to them: Crafty Counsel.

Fast forward to today, Crafty Counsel is no longer just a side hustle creating video content. In 2020, we expanded to build a community space for in-house legal professionals after noticing a need.

As the UK’s fastest growing community, Crafty Counsel is redefining the experience for in-house legal professionals. From events and virtual meet-ups so they can grow their networks. To training and content so they can nurture their career. And not forgetting our partnerships so they can cultivate their resources.
