New contact details for Faculty’s Criminal Appeal Service
The Faculty of Advocates’ Criminal Appeal Service has taken on a new member of staff, Rachael Williamson, as its legal secretary.
She joins Jacob Cohen, paralegal, at the hub of the service which was founded in January 2014 as a “one-stop shop” for solicitors.
As well as handling the administration of an appeal, the service can arrange representation and instruct at court hearings. It also offers court cover at first instance hearings and assistance in appeals against extradition.
With Rachael Williamson’s recruitment and other changes since its inception, the service has new contact details which solicitors are asked to note, for future use.
These are:
