This is a firm I’ve had a lot of success supporting with their growth this year, and it’s genuinely exciting to see how far the practice has come. They’ve built significant momentum across their Crime & Regulatory offering and continue to invest in the team as demand for their services grows.
This isn't simply a replacement hire or a firm filling a vacancy. There is genuine investment being made into the Crime & Regulatory team, creating exciting opportunities for ambitious criminal lawyers who want quality work, progression and the chance to be part of a growing specialist practice.
What's on offer?
The firm is currently looking for a Criminal Solicitor to join its growing team.
The practice covers General & Serious Crime, Professional Regulation & Discipline and Private Client, with a particularly strong and expanding reputation within the Crime & Regulatory market.
This is an opportunity to work on a varied and high-quality caseload, with genuine exposure to complex, high-profile and sensitive matters, representing clients from the police station stage through to Magistrates' and Crown Court proceedings.
The role will involve:
Police station representation and participation in on-call rotas
Managing your own criminal caseload
Magistrates' and Crown Court advocacy
Prison conferences and client meetings
Preparing bail applications, defence case statements and key documentation
Working closely with Counsel on complex and serious matters
Advising clients across a broad range of general and serious crime matters
Who are they looking for?

Strong criminal defence experience
Police Station Accreditation
Experience across Magistrates' and Crown Court matters
Excellent advocacy and client care skills
The ability to manage their own caseload independently
A calm and confident approach when handling complex and high-pressure matters
Why consider this opportunity?
Having worked closely with this firm throughout the year, I've seen first-hand the growth taking place within the practice.
