Paralegal (Crime)

Salary: £23,200+
Closing date: 09/08/2026

Make a difference. Support clients when they need it most. Be part of a team dedicated to criminal justice.

We are looking for a proactive and highly organised Crime Paralegal to join our busy Criminal Defence team. This is an exciting opportunity for someone who thrives in a fast-paced environment, enjoys supporting others, and is passionate about ensuring access to justice for clients facing some of the most challenging situations of their lives.

As a Crime Paralegal, you will play a vital role in the day-to-day running of criminal cases, providing essential support to solicitors and fee earners whilst maintaining exceptional standards of client care. This is a primarily desk based job where no two days are the same – from dealing with urgent police station matters and court documentation to liaising with clients, courts, counsel and external agencies, you will be at the heart of a dynamic and rewarding department.

What You’ll Be Doing

Supporting solicitors and fee earners with the management of criminal law matters
Processing and prioritising urgent police station and court documentation
Managing a busy departmental inbox and ensuring time-sensitive information is actioned promptly
Preparing correspondence, client care letters and legal documentation from dictation
Communicating professionally with clients, courts, the CPS, police stations, counsel and other agencies
Recording and maintaining accurate file and case management records
Taking telephone enquiries and messages, ensuring clients receive excellent service and support
Assisting with magistrates’ and crown court case administration
Ensuring compliance with internal procedures, SRA regulations and quality standards
Working collaboratively with colleagues to provide an efficient and responsive service

What We’re Looking For

We are seeking someone who:

Has a genuine interest in criminal law and the criminal justice system
Thrives in a busy, fast-moving environment where priorities can change quickly
Demonstrates excellent organisational and time-management skills
Has strong attention to detail and the ability to manage multiple tasks simultaneously
Provides outstanding client care with empathy and professionalism
Communicates confidently and effectively, both verbally and in writing
Works well as part of a supportive team
Is proactive, adaptable and willing to learn
Can remain calm under pressure when dealing with urgent matters and deadlines
Has strong IT and administrative skills

Previous legal administration or criminal law experience would be advantageous, but above all we are looking for someone with the right attitude, commitment and enthusiasm.

Why Join Us?

Working in criminal defence is challenging, varied and incredibly rewarding. You will become part of a dedicated team committed to protecting the rights of clients and delivering high-quality legal services.

In return, we offer:

A supportive and collaborative working environment
Exposure to a wide range of criminal law matters
Opportunities for professional development and career progression
Meaningful work that directly contributes to the fair administration of justice
A role where your contribution genuinely makes a difference every day

The Ideal Candidate

This role would suit someone who enjoys being at the centre of the action, can manage competing priorities, and takes pride in supporting colleagues and clients through every stage of the criminal justice process. If you are motivated by helping others, enjoy a challenge, and want to build a career in criminal law, we would love to hear from you.

Join us and help deliver access to justice when it matters most.

Apply now to become part of our dedicated Criminal Defence team.

Pay: From £23,200.00 per year
