Charles was very careful and very commanding in the way he dealt with issues. Technically very good and a very fine advocate, he also had a good bedside manner with the client.
Charles is everything you want in a top children silk - he's clever, calm and completely unflappable. Lots of barristers are clever, but few are wise. Charles has wisdom in bags.
Excellent at every level.
