We’re pleased to share that Sonn Macmillan Walker has once again secured a Tier 2 ranking in the Legal 500 London – Crime: General listings, affirming the strength and consistency of our criminal defence practice. 

Our firm continues to be recognised for its work across high-stakes and high-visibility criminal matters—ranging from extradition and murder cases to assault hearings and allegations of money laundering

Testimonials from the Legal 500 highlight the core values that underpin our work:

  • “Sonn Macmillan Walker is a first-class firm operating a high level of service to all their clients, regardless of the size of their case. Professionally run, meticulous case preparation, and first-class client care.” Legal 500

  • “The SMW team deals with the most serious and complex cases. They are all experienced and highly skilful lawyers who lead by example and work as a tight-knit team.” Legal 500

  • “What sets this team apart is the absence of ego. They work as genuine partners in the case, respect counsel’s role, and do not lose sight of the client’s broader interests. Their standards are high, their preparation meticulous, and their integrity consistent.” Legal 500

Maintaining our Tier 2 standing in Legal 500 is a tribute to the stability, depth, and excellence of our criminal defence team. We remain committed to delivering outstanding representation—whether in high-profile cases or in matters that fly under the radar, for both privately funded and legally aided clients.
