SYLA Beyond The Basics: Criminal legal aid applications

The Scottish Young Lawyers’ Association, in association with the Scottish Legal Aid Board (SLAB), will present the latest “Beyond the Basics” series next week – Beyond the Basics: Criminal legal aid applications.

This event is aimed at those who would like to get an insight into how criminal legal aid applications are assessed as well as gaining practical hints and tips relating to financial eligibility.

The event will be led by Kingsley Thomas. Mr Thomas is the head of criminal legal assistance at SLAB and has worked in legal aid administration since 1983. He manages a busy department which processes and takes decisions on all types of criminal legal aid from across Scotland.

A live Q&A session will conclude the event. Please feel free to send any questions in advance to mail@syla.co.uk or please ask in person or via the Zoom chat bar on the night.
