Minister for Justice -
The Hon Nigel Feetham KC MP
It gives me great pleasure, as Minister with responsibility for Justice, to welcome you to the Government Law Offices’ website.
The team is led by the Attorney-General, Michael Llamas KC, who is, in turn, supported by a group of talented professionals. The role they conduct is crucial, not only to the effective functioning of good government, but also to the criminal justice process.
The lawyers from this office are divided by specialisations. They consistently provide instrumental support to all departments of government, whether it be through the drafting of primary and secondary legislation, the provision of legal advice, or representing departments, agencies and non-departmental public bodies, in court.
The lawyers of the Office of Criminal Prosecutions and Litigation, under the Director of Public Prosecutions Christian Rocca KC, also act in an independent capacity, when they prosecute criminal cases that have been investigated by the Royal Gibraltar Police, H.M. Customs and other investigative bodies in Gibraltar.
The work carried out by the GLO is of great constitutional importance to the immense benefit of the residents of Gibraltar.
