Ward Hadaway has bolstered its matrimonial team with the arrival of partner Charlotte Beck.

Based in the firm’s Manchester office, Charlotte brings with her a wealth of experience in family law. Her areas of expertise include divorce and cohabitation issues, as well as property disputes, high net worth financial arrangements and children matters.  

Charlotte commented: ‘I'm absolutely delighted to be joining Ward Hadaway. The firm has a first-class reputation for the quality of legal services it provides across its three offices.

‘The focus on client care and long-term planning stands out. I am proud to become part of that and thrilled that the Ward Hadaway team have asked me to help take this philosophy forward.’

Partner Martin Karran added: ‘Charlotte is someone whose work we have been familiar with for some time; it is great to welcome her to the team.

‘Charlotte stands out as a practitioner who shares our values. That ethos of understanding long-term client needs and respecting our role in the community has been our guiding light in building our team.

‘I have always looked at giving people every opportunity to develop themselves and their practices. Charlotte fits that mould perfectly.’
