The role is based at a Criminal Defence Solicitors Firm in Redditch, where you will be part of a small team. You will be required to undertake general office administration duties and handle calls coming into the firm.

You will be expected to deal with clients from a cross-section of society and will need to demonstrate excellent communication skills both verbally and in writing. You will also be required to liaise with other interested third parties, such as the Police, Counsel, Courts, Legal Aid Agency and medical professionals.

Experience using Case Management Software is essential, as you will be expected to open and populate new files, input critical dates, and organise the office diary. You should also be confident using Microsoft Word, Outlook and Teams.

The role will involve some lone working at the office so you must be able to work on your own initiative, as well as part of team.

Some aspects of the work that we do can be quite challenging so you will be required to have an open mind and be resilient in character.

We are looking for someone who has excellent organisational skills, is hardworking, and reliable.

Legal experience is preferred but not essential.

Hours Negotiable between 20-30 per week with some flexibility to suit the right candidate. (Salary advertised is the FTE).

ID Law is an equal opportunities employer and values diversity. We welcome applications from all suitably experienced candidates.

‼️ On 1st July a new Sentencing Guideline for Assaults, including on Emergency Workers, came into force‼️

For the first time, judges and magistrates in England and Wales will have specific guidance for sentencing offences of assault on emergency workers, which reflects legislation that increased the maximum sentence for common assault when the victim is an emergency worker.

Other changes include:

⚖A new high-culpability factor of “intention to cause fear of serious harm, including disease transmission” in the common assault guideline
⚖A new aggravating factor of “deliberate spitting or coughing” in the common assault and assault causing Actual Bodily Harm (ABH) offences guidelines
⚖A new high-culpability factor of strangulation to include asphyxiation and suffocation in all guidelines except attempted murder
⚖A revised high-culpability factor of “victim obviously vulnerable due to age, personal characteristics or circumstances” across all guidelines

Not quite the New Year message we thought it would be, but hey, it’s still 2020 and all ‘norms’ are out the window...

Although Redditch is now Tier 3, all our staff live in Tier 4 areas so are working remotely where possible. Attendances are our offices is now BY APPOINTMENT ONLY to guarantee that someone is in the office. We are also able to offer Skype, Zoom and WhatsApp consultations, so call ahead to discuss an arrangement that works for you.

Don’t worry, we are still covering Police Stations 24/7 and attending Court Hearings in person, wherever possible.

2021 we are ready for you!!
