Legal search. More evidence.
Better legal matches start with a better view of the market
Three Crowns combines structured legal-market data, probabilistic modelling and recruiter judgement to identify lawyers and firms with a stronger chance of working well together.
Evidence-led legal search
Career, firm, migration and matter evidence brought together in one explained recommendation.
Our market view
A search grounded in more than instinct
Our current dataset gives us a broad, structured view of lawyers and firms before any approach is made.

The difference
We analyse the history behind the CV
Recruitment often relies on familiar networks and keyword matching. We look at how careers and firms develop over time.
The market, not a contact list
We map the relevant lawyer population instead of beginning and ending with people already known to a recruiter.
Careers over time
We examine tenure, progression and movement patterns rather than treating a CV as a static list of roles.
Probability, explained
The model estimates fit and retention risk, then shows the evidence, confidence and uncertainty behind the result.
Our specialisms
One evidence model, applied to different legal careers
The relevant signals change by mandate, but the standard remains the same: understand the person, the team and the likely path after the move.

Associate search

Partner search
Partner and team search informed by practice economics, migration patterns and institutional fit.

Probabilistic, not absolute
A model should explain what it knows and what it does not
No model can promise that a lawyer will stay or that a hire will succeed. Ours estimates compatibility and retention risk, reports uncertainty and updates as the evidence changes. Recruiter judgement remains part of every recommendation.
