Crucible is Five.
04 November 2025
It is hard to believe that it is five years since we founded Crucible, and so I want to take a moment to reflect on what an extraordinary journey it has been so far. From the beginning we set out to build a chambers that was different—a modern, principled, friendly and progressive set that put our clients at the centre of what we do. This milestone is a testament to the talent, dedication, and integrity of every member of Crucible. Just as importantly it is also a testament to the support you have shown us, whether that has been from professional colleagues, friends or our unsung families. Our founding principles focused on providing a professional, excellent, accessible and friendly service to our clients, and our success has been based on ensuring we deliver on those principles’ day in and day out. It has been a wonderful journey, but it is a journey we could never have made without your support, which has been overwhelming and means so much to all of us; so, on behalf of Crucible I would like to thank all of you, for being part of our story so far. Here is to the next exciting chapter.
