Defence Solicitor Service
The Defence Solicitor Service provides legal representation to individuals who are accused of crimes and cannot afford a private lawyer. Their role is to ensure the accused receives a fair trial by offering legal advice, preparing their defense, and representing them in court. These solicitors work independently from the prosecution, focusing on protecting the rights of the defendant. Funding for this service typically comes from the government, and their goal is to ensure everyone has access to legal support regardless of financial means.
