Details
This Parole Board booklet provides guidance and support for prisoners who opt to represent themselves during the parole process rather than seeking a lawyer, or, for whatever reason are unable to appoint a lawyer
The Board always strongly recommends that prisoners should seek a professional legal representative to advise and represent them in their parole hearing.
However, there are a significant number of prisoners who are unrepresented.
This new guide gives valuable advice on preparing for a parole review.
Whilst it is aimed at prisoners, it may also prove helpful to anyone supporting a prisoner.
