Rape Allegation - No Further Action
We were instructed to provide pre-charge representation on behalf of our client who was under investigation for Rape. Having taken detailed instructions from our client it became apparent there were significant lines of enquiry which we were able to pursue, including speaking with and taking a statement from a key witness. This evidence significantly undermined the allegation that had been made against our client and cast doubt over the credibility of the complainant. We put a bundle of evidence together with representations which we submitted to the police asserting that their case failed on evidential grounds. After a review of this material the police took no further action against our client.

Grievous Bodily Harm - No Further Action
We were instructed by our client to provide pre-charge representation in relation to an allegation of assault occasioning grievous bodily harm with intent. Our client had already been interviewed about his involvement in the incident and had been advised by the duty solicitor to answer 'no comment' to all questions. We carefully analysed the evidence in the case and took our client's instructions regarding his involvement. We decided that it was in our client's interests to request a further interview with the police in order to advance his defence. We did this by way of a detailed prepared statement. Having put forward his version of events the police decided to take no further action against our client.

Historic Sexual Assault Allegation - No Further Action
Our client instructed us to provide pre-charge representation regarding allegations of historic sexual assault. Our client was living and working abroad at the time and so we arranged a suitable date/time for the client to attend a voluntary interview, therefore avoiding the risk of arrest. We obtained disclosure in advance of the interview and drafted a prepared statement on our client’s behalf denying the allegations. We represented our client in police interview and subsequently submitted representations on his behalf to the police evidential review team asserting the reasons why we believed the case did not pass the evidential threshold and therefore no further action should be taken. Our representations were successful and the police took the decision to take no further action against the client. The case was not referred to the Crown Prosecution Service.

Indecent Images Investigation - No Further Action
Our client instructed us to provide pre-charge representation after they had been arrested on suspicion of possessing and distributing Indecent Images of Children. We successfully made several applications to the court to vary and eventually remove our client’s bail conditions which restricted contact with his own children. We submitted representations to the police identifying the reasons why we felt their case failed on evidential grounds. The police decided to take no further action against our client. Our client was of good character and so his reputation and employment was on the line.
We pride ourselves on our client care and ensure the highest level of service.

I would highly recommend Tim to anyone who is looking for a professional and compassionate criminal defence solicitor. His experience, advice and support during an extremely difficult time were invaluable, not only to me, but also to my close family. He never gave false hope or unrealistic expectations, just clear and uncomplicated legal guidance’.
Tim Baker is a fantastic lawyer. He was thoughtful, understanding, efficient and hard working. He was persistent and fought in my corner without falter, but carried himself with integrity and professionalism the entire time. Always there whenever I wanted to call, he always made me feel heard and explained things 100 times if that’s what I needed. Above all, he is just a lovely guy all around, and made the whole process seem less scary. I would highly recommend Tim if you’re looking for representation. I am living a very happy, case free life now because of him.
Having received a letter from trading standards last year they informed me of a pending investigations and were intent on prosecuting myself for allegations of fraud and mis representation ! However, after contacting Tim Baker and discussing the situation I was immediately reassured and confident that Tim and his team were the absolute way forward ! Tims understanding of the law and code of conduct was second to none , He set about the boundaries of law and contacted trading standards with his intentions to represent me , He continued to be the most knowledgeable and professional lawyer I've had the privilege to work with , My confidence throughout working with Tim for over 6 months never faulted and the end result due to Tims Advocacy of my rights and tireless work meant I had no criminal case to answer and my reputation restored and the whole matter disposed of. Don't hesitate for a minute to contact Tim Baker a stellar lawyer that should be proud of all his professional work.
