Origins of Gibson & Co.Our story began during the 1715 Rebellion, when Jasper Gibson, a lawyer and friend of the Earl of Derwentwater, was tasked with drafting the rebel leader's last will and testament. In a remarkable display of resourcefulness, Gibson wrote the will in blood on the cuff of his shirt after making an incision in his own skin. This bold and daring act is a testament to the firm's founding principles: resourcefulness, dedication, and a commitment to excellence.
