Chambers welcomes family law barrister

Family law barrister Charlotte Georges, formerly of 36 Group, has joined 4PB.

Charlotte is recognised as a leading junior in the areas of children and domestic abuse, and she has a wealth of experience in handling complex public and private law proceedings, regularly appearing in the High Court. 

Charlotte's practice spans a wide range of cases, including child abduction matters involving both Hague and non-Hague removals, international children cases involving applications for leave to remove (internal and external), and wardship proceedings. 

Charlotte is known for her empathy, preparation and ability to quickly earn the trust of her clients.

In a joint statement, Heads of Chambers Charles Hale KC and Barbara Mills KC said: ‘We are delighted that Charlotte has joined 4PB. She comes with a strong pedigree of complex children work and is widely respected by the judiciary as a very capable and experienced children expert. We have no doubt that she will go from strength to strength at 4PB.’

Charlotte said: ‘I’m thrilled to be joining such a prestigious set and look forward to developing all aspects of my practice further.’
