Criminal Solicitor – Leeds
Are you a seasoned Criminal Solicitor seeking the opportunity to build, lead and grow your own department within a supportive and progressive firm?
A well-established and growing Yorkshire-based law firm is undertaking a strategic recruitment drive. Although the firm does not currently offer criminal defence services, it is keen to expand into this area – either by appointing an ambitious Solicitor with a clear strategic vision, or by welcoming an established criminal team looking for a new base.

The Opportunity
This is a rare chance to create and head a Criminal Law department within a respected, multi-office firm.

Comprehensive administrative and operational support will be provided, allowing you to focus on delivering high-quality work and developing the department.
This role is ideally suited to someone with the drive and ambition to shape and develop a new service line.
