Gavin Smith

I am a Paralegal at Hill Twine Solicitors & Barristers and deal with the day-to-day administration in the firm. I speak to clients regularly and I have responsibility for the operation of the Police Station Team.  I ensure that we provide representation to everyone who asks for Hill Twine at the police station, chasing outcomes and informing clients of updates in the investigation.

I have worked in the Criminal Justice System for over twenty years and have a huge amount of experience within the court system. I spent ten years working at the magistrates’ court dealing with criminal cases, trials, applications for bail and other court processes.

I spent a further ten years working for another agency as a criminal investigator and I have considerable experience dealing with criminal investigations and interviews. I am trained to deal with vulnerable adults and children and persons with complex needs.

I am excited and proud to now be working for Hill Twine Solicitors & Barristers as they share my philosophy of honesty, integrity and treating people with respect.

I enjoy travelling and visiting different countries.  I play golf and run.
