Our difference
At Cripps, we’re lawyers for business and life.
Putting you at the heart of what we do, we care about how our advice supports what really matters to you. Taking it personally from the outset, we’re one dedicated, integrated team, solving your problems, championing your ambitions and planning for the future. By your side and backing your cause, we inform better decisions. Manage risk. And uncover new opportunities.
We don’t just do the right thing by you. We’re committed to doing it the right way. With the best talent and the right balance of technology, creativity and imagination, it’s about making a lasting difference for our clients, people, communities and planet.
Our purpose
Together, our purpose is to be the difference. This means using our collective energy, empathy and expertise to make a positive and long-lasting impact on people’s lives and businesses. We realise that actions are more important than words and we make our purpose a reality by channelling our actions through four key ‘pillars’ - our people, clients, planet and community.
Our people
As a business, we put people first, creating an environment where they can have enriched careers and fulfilling lives. We focus on attracting and retaining the best talent, with a strong ethos to do the right thing.
Our clients
We help our clients to solve their problems and realise their ambitions. We want them to feel delighted by our exceptional service every day. In doing so, we can help them to grow and in turn, work with more like-minded clients.
Our planet
We’re committed to protecting the most valuable resource we have: this remarkable planet we’re all fortunate enough to inhabit. As part of this effort, we’re working towards becoming a net zero business to help build a more sustainable future.
Our community
It’s our privilege to use our skills and resources to help enrich people’s lives. Our actions will have a positive impact on the underserved parts of our communities and contribute to causes that matter to our business and people.

Care
We are humans first and professionals second, with a natural curiosity that goes beyond the legal. We take a genuine interest in our clients’ lives and businesses, asking better questions to get better results. We recognise the trust that people place in us and strive to make a positive long-term difference to their lives, and to our communities and planet.
Imagine
We encourage everyone to think creatively, constantly challenging the norm to explore fresh ideas and approaches; taking informed risks, learning from our experiences and letting nothing inhibit our thinking. We aim high, dream big and create new opportunities.
Enjoy
We know people flourish when they can be their true selves – and just because it’s business it doesn’t mean we can’t have fun along the way. So we create the space to relax, connect and expand our horizons.
Achieve
We make things happen, moving at pace and challenging ourselves to exceed our own high expectations. We encourage collaboration, innovation and learning – letting nothing inhibit our ambition. Our determination and tenacity creates success for our people and our clients.
Tech innovation
We put our clients and their needs at the heart of how we design and use our technology. By gathering their insights about the challenges they face during the transaction process, we identify any problems and co-create solutions. We understand that technology is key to connecting with our clients and delivering the framework needed to solve their problems quickly.
Our approach
Following these principles, each year we run a number of projects under our ‘Spark’ programme. Projects that reimagine how we deliver legal services. These initiatives engage directly with our clients, lawyers and their support teams, ensuring the right solutions are prioritised and driven by those most heavily impacted.
We are careful to select the right technology. We only adopt solutions that enhance the experience of our clients and our people. Technology that not only improves our efficiencies, by automating the mundane, but enables a tailored and personal service.
Fostering an innovative culture
We’ve created an environment where asking questions, being imaginative and exploring ideas is encouraged. We embrace ideas from across the business, fostering an open mind-set and ensuring sufficient time and recognition is invested in technology projects.
