Emma Williams Solicitor

Areas of specialities: Criminal Law.

I studied Law and Psychology at Sheffield Hallam University and graduated in 2013 with a 1st Class BSc (Hons). I completed my LPC and Masters at the University of Law in Leeds, obtaining a Distinction (LL.M) whilst working at a local firm.

I have worked within the profession since 2013 and qualified as a Solicitor and Higher Court Advocate in 2019, joining Watson Woodhouse in 2020. I am a Duty Solicitor with specific expertise in representing clients in the Crown Courts.

Since working in the profession, I have gained experience in dealing with a wide range of Criminal Law matters, with all manner of cases and offences. I represent criminal clients in the Police Station, Magistrates and Crown Court.

Client care is very important to me. My experience has taught me that clients often need a solicitor during the most difficult times of their lives. So, I strive to be approachable and make myself available to clients. I always aim to secure the best possible outcomes for my clients.

Notable cases:

R v S (2022) – Secured a suspended sentence order for a client who admitted a serious assault

R v M (2022) – Secured a suspended sentence order in a firearms case in circumstances where the law usually imposes imprisonment

R v R (2023) –  Successfully defended a high-value benefit fraud matter

R v S (2023) – Secured a suspended sentence in a burglary case involving the use of a weapon

R v L (2023) – Successfully defended a client accused of sexual assault

R v D (2022) – Advised a client accused of murder at the police station resulting in no further action being taken against him
