Goldman Bailey Solicitors are a busy firm based in Camden Town, specialising in criminal defence and immigration

About the role
The role will involve a mixture of casework and administration as well as attending police stations, including out of hours, and providing cover for out of hours calls. Police station accreditation a strong advantage, but candidates with previous criminal defence experience would be assisted to obtain this.

Applicants will need to be hard-working and highly organised, with excellent attention to detail.
