Tim Baker has extensive experience working within criminal law, both for the defence and the prosecution. As a defence lawyer, Tim regularly represents clients who are interviewed under caution for a wide variety of offences, including serious sexual offences, fraud and homicide. Tim is an accomplished advocate, having spent many years conducting his own trials in the Magistrates Court.
Tim was also formerly employed by the Crown Prosecution Service as a Senior Crown Prosecutor in the Thames Valley Crown Court team. His responsibilities included reviewing case files, providing legal advice and analysing and preparing serious cases for trial in the Crown Court. One of Tim’s key responsibilities was to provide pre-charge advice to the police. This involved analysing whether there was sufficient evidence to charge suspects with particular offences. This makes Tim especially adept at drafting pre-charge representations on behalf of his clients.
In Tim’s last role, he held a senior position within a criminal defence firm who specialise in representing high-net worth individuals and celebrities. During his time there Tim refined his skills in drafting pre-charge representations on behalf of clients, largely for sexual offences. Tim also handled cases of serious violence, domestic abuse and serious fraud.
Tim is extremely personable and builds a strong rapport with his clients, many of whom he has kept in touch with after the conclusion of their cases.

Honest advice
Jerico Law advised me in the run up to and during a voluntary police interview their advice was clear and honest and was very valuable.

Knowledgeable & Understanding
Tim at Jericho Law is a great solicitor that I would highly recommend to anyone seeking legal advice or aid within the many aspects that Jericho Law covers & specialises in.
He has great experience from his previous positions on both sides of the prosecution & defence of many types of cases, this could give you the vital edge you need in your case to get the result you're seeking.

Outstanding support from Tim Baker
Tim's patience, tenacity and professionalism help get me through a very traumatic time. I was alleged to be in possession of indecent images on the back on a separate incident. After continually challenging the evidence from every angle the investigation came to an abrupt conclusion in which the alleged images where recategorized! Thanks to Tim, I have my life and my family back, my name is cleared and I can move forward with my life.

Fantastic service from Jericho law
Thankfully I had instructed Jericho law to represent me after being arrested. Discussions with Tim Baker, whose respectful and supportive attitude led to Pre charge representation being submitted and the case closed with No Further Action. I am forever grateful to Tim for his support and help in what was a truly awful period of time.

Outstanding service leading to a positive outcome
From the start of the case to the end, Jericho Law was outstanding in providing their services from start to finish. Through a 18 month long complex process, Tim was consistently professional, communicative and supportive in all aspects regarding my case.
This included chasing for updates and updating me as soon as possible. This proactive approach helped alter a bail condition that significantly impacted my daily life. Tim was always available during this stressful time and always responded to my queries providing clarity at every stage. Tim was able to understand my specific circumstances and was relentless in following up with the police. He is a solicitor who genuinely cares about his clients and was always there to provide me with reassurance.
Even though complications arose with the backlog of cases and delays - Tim always informed me of every step and was determined in reaching the outcome. Throughout this time, Tim always pushed for progress and in the end the case was closed with No Further Action (NFA).
I cannot recommend Jericho Law highly enough for anyone in need of reliable and top tier legal service. The firm’s dedication and expertise was pivotal to the successful outcome of my case. The firm possessed specialist knowledge in this legal area that was invaluable throughout the case.

Excellent and fantastic support
My wife and contacted Tim Baker the day after a very difficult allegation was made against me from our very first meeting with Tim he came across very professional and competent to deal with the situation I was in, so much so I decided to appoint Tim within that meeting. This situation carried on for over 14 months during which Tim would be in regular contact and kept us up to date with what was happening. The eventual outcome was no further action. I cannot thank Tim enough for his professional and personal support. I highly recommend Tim Baker.

Review
Mr Tim Baker was friendly and approachable. He was easy to talk to and explained things well. He actually predicted what would happen with my case. He was quick to respond to queires and continually followed up the police officer to try to find out what was happening. I have never been in this stressful position before and it was supportive to have such an excellent and trustworthy advocate. I would always recommend him.

Exemplary Service from Tim Baker
I cannot speak too highly of Tim Baker.
The first time I spoke to him, he instilled confidence and I felt so much better just after that one phone call. It was so reassuring knowing that there was someone out there who understood the problem from a legal point of view, was familiar with the processes involved and knew what was required to resolve the situation.
Tim is knowledgeable and professional and kept us informed of every development. In addition he was always there on the end of the phone to answer questions and give an informed opinion on any new developments.
From the very first phone call to the final debrief, Tims empathy, efficiency and specialised knowledge helped us navigate what was a devastating problem to achieve the best possible outcome.
