**About us**

Are you interested in developing a career with a real purpose? We are looking for individuals who are committed to public service and to make a difference in people’s lives to deliver justice. If this sounds like you, please apply.

HM Courts and Tribunals Service (HMCTS) is responsible for the administration of criminal, civil and family courts and tribunals in England and Wales. Joining us is a chance to play a pivotal role in the smooth running of our magistrate’s courts, which give people and businesses access to potentially life-changing justice. Not only will your work be of crucial importance for those who use our services, you’ll be able to build a varied, challenging and rewarding career.

**About the role**

We’re looking for qualified lawyers, including barristers, solicitors and fellows of CILEX to join us. You will be supported through your training period of 12-18 months to become a fully authorised Legal adviser at which time you’ll be qualified to advise magistrates on legal practice and procedure and assist them with the formulation and drafting of responses etc. Specialising in family law, you’ll work across a variety of cases and legal challenges.

As well as providing legal advice to magistrates, you’ll be required to exercise a range of authorised judicial functions. Not only will this draw on your sound legal skills, but you’ll need to demonstrate judicial independence, integrity and impartiality at all times.

**Your experience and skills**

You’ll need to be a qualified solicitor, barrister or fellow of CILEX, including completion of your professional experience. Depending on your experience, you’ll then need to complete up to 12 months of training. Depending on experience, it may be 18 months before you qualify. Your training will include legal study of the law, practice and procedure of a range of different courts, and your progress will be monitored throughout.

**Position**:Legal Adviser

**Directorate**: HMCTS

**Band**: SEO

**Salary**:National salary starting scale £37,683 pa, London salary starting scale £43,647

**Contract**: Permanent

**Reserve List**: 12 Months

**Overview**

**Why we exist**

Magistrates’ Courts deal with approximately 95% of criminal cases, 70% of civil cases, and 60% of family cases across England and Wales. Dealing with cases justly and speedily, and in ways that meet the needs of our court users, is at the heart of what we do.

The role of a Legal Adviser is pivotal to the smooth running of the court. Magistrates are unqualified judges drawn from the local community and sit on a voluntary basis. As Magistrates do not have a legal background, the Legal Adviser is required to sit in court with them to advise on legal points, practice and procedure and assist with the formulation and drafting of their reasons.

As a Legal Adviser to magistrates, you are responsible for ensuring that those attending court, whether as defendant, victim or witness are treated with humanity and respect. Good legal knowledge and the ability to communicate that clearly to magistrates and court users is vital to the courts ability to deal with cases justly. Success in the role you are considering will enable you to make a positive difference to your community and your society.

We are here to ensure everyone in need of our Courts and Tribunals receives a service that suits their needs.

We are completing a £1bn, six-year Reform Programme which will change what we do and make our services better for the society we serve. The Reform Programme is one of the most ambitious of its kind in the world.

**How are we going to fulfil our vision?**

Every year, millions of people seek justice in our courts and tribunals.
- We are focused on radically improving the customer’s experience by:
- Employing digital technology to enable access to justice by enabling victims and witnesses to give evidence in a less intimidating way via video link;
- Enabling self-service, where appropriate, to ensure people can get fast and easy access to simple judicial services;
- Streamlining processes so we can reinvest in improvements that benefit our customers;
- Progressing cases efficiently and effectively through the court by maximising the use of new digital processes.

As a Legal Adviser, you will be at the forefront of delivering this improved service and experience to our customers both in and outside the court room.
