Solicitor clause wording
Aid is approved to provide preliminary advice about your client's DNA historic case review where the DNA sample has not been re-tested.
This grant of aid provides for a solicitor to:
- contact the client
- peruse case, specifically the DNA evidence presented during proceedings
- provide preliminary advice to the client regarding potential outcomes and whether any further legal avenues exist
- notify the DPP if contact has not been able to be made with the client.
This is a fixed fee grant of aid.
