As we continue our growth, we are looking to strengthen our London team with talented criminal defence solicitors at all levels — from NQ Solicitors through to Senior Solicitors, Supervisors, Duty Solicitors and Consultants.

We are particularly interested in hearing from lawyers with experience in:

• Criminal Defence

• Serious & General Crime

• White Collar Crime

• Regulatory & Investigations

• Legal Aid

Whether you are looking to develop your advocacy, handle higher-value and more complex matters, move into private/white-collar work, or take the next step into leadership, we would like to hear from you.

More than just another role

We are building a firm for ambitious lawyers who want to be part of something bigger.

Tuckers is investing in people, technology, infrastructure and regional growth, creating opportunities for lawyers who want to develop their careers and play a meaningful role in the future direction of the firm.

For the right individual, there are also opportunities to develop and lead teams, take on greater responsibility and potentially help build new regional operations, with the full infrastructure of an established national firm behind you.

What we can offer

• Competitive salary

• Bonus and overtime opportunities

• Hybrid working

• Full-time and part-time opportunities

• Legal Aid and private client work

• National career opportunities

• Genuine progression and leadership opportunities

• The backing, systems and infrastructure of an established national firm

Our state-of-the-art case management systems and national infrastructure allow our lawyers to focus on what matters most — excellent advocacy, client care and delivering the best possible defence for our clients.

What we are looking for

• Qualified Solicitor with relevant criminal defence experience

• Duty Solicitor accreditation / PSQ where applicable

• Strong advocacy, drafting and client-care skills

• Commercial awareness and a commitment to excellent client service

• Ambition to develop and progress

If you are an experienced criminal defence solicitor in London and are considering your next move, I would be very interested in speaking with you — even if you are not actively looking.

Confidential enquiries are welcome.
