Our old workshop
Our story

Some stories start loud...

Ours started with conviction. It wasn’t glamour. It was grit, creativity and craft – the foundation of what we do today.

Our history

Courts was founded by Roy McCafferty in 1987: a time of bold ideas, big risks and even bigger ambitions.

In late 80’s and throughout the 90’s, we partnered with the UK Government’s Department for Trade & Industry to promote the British oil industry oversees across Jakarta, Baku, Stavanger and Houston – proving that a small, sharp team could make an impact on a global stage.

And from those early days, we built more than a portfolio. We built strong business foundations, a financially resilient operation and a clear sense of purpose.

What drives us

From the very beginning loyalty shaped how we show up:

Loyal to the work

Loyal to our clients

Loyal to our partners

Loyal to our team

Loyal to our standards

What makes us who we are today

Nearly 40 years of brand building has shaped us – but it hasn’t slowed us down...

Today Courts is:

Agile enough to move fast

Senior enough to think boldly

Creative enough to go beyond expectation

Experienced enough to bring clarity where others bring confusion

The next chapter

Nearly forty years in – and we’re only just getting started

The world is evolving. Expectations are rising. New tools are rewriting the rules. And we’re energised by all of it.

Our story isn’t about what we’ve done. It’s about where we’re going – and who we’ll build it with. If you’re ready for clarity, courage and creativity that actually moves your business forward… Let’s start the next chapter together.
