Career

Charmian is an approachable, tenacious and engaging barrister with experience at all stages of financial remedy and TOLATA proceedings and private law children work.

Charmian’s financial cases frequently involve public and private sector pension provision, complex business assets, the alleged concealment of wealth, inherited wealth and significant pre- or post-relationship acquired assets. She also often deals with cases involving children and parents with disabilities or mental health issues and those with debt and state benefits considerations.

Charmian frequently undertakes cases involving trusts of land, both in financial remedy proceedings and as freestanding applications.

Charmian has a particular interest in cases where there is an overlap between the Family Court and the Court of Protection, having previously practised in the Court of Protection. She has experience of being instructed by Deputies in cases where the protected party is going through divorce proceedings and understands the additional complexities arising in such cases.

The private law cases she undertakes often include those involving serious allegations of sexual, physical and emotional abuse, including parental alienation. Charmian has experience of applications involving the interplay between differing jurisdictions and issues of internal and external relocation.

Charmian is known for having an excellent manner with clients, including those with particular vulnerabilities, and is always thoroughly prepared with an excellent eye for detail.

Charmian sits as a Deputy District Judge on the Midlands Circuit and is authorised to hear private law cases.
