Parole Board reports for prisons across London, the South East, the East of England and the Midlands

We are based in Cambridgeshire and take instructions from solicitors and barristers across London, the South East, the East of England and up to the Midlands. We assess in prisons, secure hospitals and solicitors’ offices, and remotely where that is appropriate.

For legally aided cases, travel is charged as public transport costs at Legal Aid Agency rates. For privately funded instructions it is included in the quote. How instruction works.
