Tuckers Welcome to the Tuckers 24-Hour Lawyers website, which we hope you will find useful and informative.

We aim to provide legal services of the highest quality, irrespective of the client's matter or the source of funding. With dedicated teams, each headed by a senior lawyer, Tuckers 24-Hour Lawyers are committed to providing expert advice and assistance to its clients.

Placed in the top tier of criminal law firms by both the Legal 500 and Chambers & Partners, we have built ourselves an enviable reputation for our commitment, and are known for getting results and giving practical advice.

This year's edition of Chambers & Partners confirms our capacity to handle the whole spectrum of criminal cases at all levels and comments that we are "undoubtedly the largest operation for criminal work in London". In relation to defending prosecutions for fraud, the publication recognises that we are "probably making more of an impact in the area in the last few years than anyone else," and describes us as "smart and clever." Our fraud and business crime team is also recognised for its handling of cases with an international or multidisciplinary aspect, and the firm's burgeoning IT crime section is singled out as being particularly "well equipped to adapt to the growing e-crime market.

The directory confirms that our Manchester office is "universally acknowledged as a leading player in the region", and compliments our Managing Partner Franklin Sinclair as having a "winning blend of charisma and know-how that ensures great results for clients". Andrew Keogh enters the rankings on the back of national respect for his knowledge on forensic matters, and Richard Egan is described as "highly personable and knowledgeable". The other leading partner in our London office is Jim Meyer, who is credited to be "a true expert at getting to the crux of the matter." These credits build on last year's special praise for our advocates, who were complimented as being "extremely capable". To read the profiles for all our lawyers, click here.

The firm’s Police Action and Prison Law departments are also profiled as being amongst the leaders in the field. Chambers & Partners highlights their particular strengths in cases involving human rights violations, false imprisonment and malicious prosecution, commenting that the Police Actions Department "displays a common-sense approach to everything it does. It will only get stronger." It credits Jules Carey for his "creativity and sensible judgement".
