Alistair Wallace- Volunteer Solicitor at our Dumfries Headquarters.
Alistair Wallace joined DAGCAS’ In Court Advice Project in September 2019 as a volunteer Solicitor with a keen interest in inequality, injustice and discrimination. He undertook all the necessary Volunteer Generalist Adviser training and quickly commenced solo practice as a volunteer adviser. To date, many of DAGCAS’ staff and clients have greatly benefited from Alistair’s time as well as his breadth of legal knowledge and expertise, he is a valued member of the team. Alistair has helped many DAGCAS clients by clearly giving advice and explaining options for very complex cases. Alastair has proven to be a dedicated and hard-working volunteer, whose professionalism and ability has greatly enhanced the work of the In Court Advice Project by offering a wider range of specialist legal advice offered to our clients. Alistair is an exceptional volunteer who is not only an asset to DAGCAS, but has made a significant contribution to the Dumfries and Galloway Community and this must be recognised. We are delighted to have him as a volunteer.
