The Innocence Project

• Griffith College

• Caseworker

  • May 2012 - Sep 2013

  The Innocence Network is a global organization which consists of volunteers who work to provide pro-bono investigative and legal assistance to individuals who are seeking to prove that they have been wrongly convicted and are innocent of the crimes for which they were convicted. As a case manager with the Innocence Project I experienced case work first hand in terms of drafting and reviewing legal documents, studying the facts of each case and investigating each individual's claim that they were wrongfully convicted . I also conducted numerous research projects on different areas of criminal law which were relevant to the cases at hand. This enabled me to improve and expand on my research skills outside of the classroom whilst also working as part of a team. Show less
