Practice Areas

Charlotte has a diverse commercial practice, with a particular focus on civil fraud, international arbitration, international trade and finance, and private international law.

She is regularly instructed in the High Court and the Court of Appeal in high profile/high value litigation (recent cases include SKAT v Solo Capital Partners & ors, Deutsche Bank AG v Sebastian Holdings Inc & Alexander Vik and Tchenguiz v Grant Thornton & ors). Charlotte also acts in international arbitrations including under the LCIA Rules, ICC Rules and UNCITRAL Rules, as well as ad hoc arbitrations. She has substantial experience of applications for interim relief, in particular freezing orders and antisuit injunctions and she regularly accepts instructions from overseas clients, in particular from Singapore and Hong Kong.

In 2014, she was selected in Legal Week’s “Stars at the Bar” as one of ten “up-and-coming commercial and Chancery barristers recognised for their exceptional abilities”. Charlotte was described as a junior who is “unflappable and always manages to maintain a calm, clear head and a sense of perspective”, “highly sought after” and a “real star”.
