If you are an experienced criminal solicitor weighing up your next move, there is an alternative to the traditional employed role. Taylor Rose offers criminal solicitor jobs on a consultancy basis, giving you the freedom to choose your clients, set your own fee scales, and decide how and where you work.

Criminal law rarely fits a 9 to 5. Police station call-outs, court deadlines and urgent client needs do not wait, so the autonomy to manage your own diary matters. As a consultant you decide the volume and type of work you take on, whether that is defence, corporate crime or fraud, without rigid billing targets pulling you away from your clients. You keep up to 75% of what you bill, so your income reflects your effort rather than a fixed salary.

If you are a criminal lawyer based in London, you can access our London legal aid contracts and start building your caseload from day one. Wherever you are based, you will have full back-office support, Grade A professional indemnity cover, and a community of more than 500 consultants and dedicated legal heads to draw on.

Our criminal solicitor jobs suit lawyers with a client following, or the confidence to generate their own work, who want autonomy without the cost of running a firm.
