The Criminal Law Committee of the Law Society of England and Wales is proud to announce its annual conference.
The conference is a practitioner-focused event and will provide busy solicitors with a unique opportunity to learn about the latest changes to criminal law, policy and practice all in one place. Delegates will hear from the Attorney General, leading practitioners, and academics involved in criminal justice.
What to expect
This conference should be attended by all criminal law solicitors and others who have an interest in the future of the criminal justice system. Our conference is titled ‘Fighting for Justice’, but as well as fighting for justice the Law Society has been fighting hard for criminal practitioners, for example:
- The judicial review of the 2009 costs from central funds regulations
- The judicial review concerning the abolition of committal fees
- Working with the CPS to make the ‘Transformation through Technology T3’ project work for the defence
- Challenging the Quality Assurance Scheme for Advocates
- Agreeing guidance with ACPO on mobile phones and laptops in police stations
- The publication of practice notes to support practitioners
- Leading the opposition to clause 12 of the Legal Aid, Sentencing and Punishment of Offenders Bill, which would allow for the introduction of means testing for police station advice.
This conference gives you the opportunity to hear the latest on topics including:
- Police station legal advice - the importance of defendants’ rights during the investigation process and, in particular, the right of a suspect to have access to legal advice at the police station
- Outcomes-focused regulation and its impact on criminal law
- DNA and digital forensic evidence
- The importance of legal aid to a fair criminal justice system
- The Criminal Procedure Rules and the changes to the duties of defence solicitors in view of active case management.
The profession faces many challenges in the near future, not only from the government, the Legal Services Commission, and from within the legal profession, but also from without with the development of Alternative Business Structures. The Law Society will be at the forefront of all those battles.
As the Law Society shows it support and commits its resources to criminal practitioners, so practitioners should show their support by attending events such as this. Help the Society to help you by showing that it has the support of practitioners.
