Vacancy – Criminal Defence Solicitor, Dundee

23 October 2023

We are looking for a Criminal Defence Solicitor with at least five years of recent experience in criminal court work to join our Public Defence Solicitors’ Office in Dundee.

You should have an in-depth working knowledge of the criminal justice system and legal aid and be able to demonstrate a sound technical ability as a criminal court practitioner.

Experience in supporting and mentoring less experienced colleagues would also be beneficial but is not essential.

Our clients are often vulnerable, seeking help with a wide range of serious criminal justice problems at particularly stressful times in their lives. Can you help us change their lives for the better?

If this sounds like you, we’d love to hear from you!
