Charlotte Symes

Spear's Review

Director at Family Law in Partnership, Charlotte Symes wears a number of hats: solicitor, family practitioner and mediator. Having practiced family law since 2011 following her graduation from the University of Cambridge, she provides financial and legal advice relating to a divorce or the dissolution of a relationship between a formerly cohabiting couple. 

Symes's fluency in French affords her the ability to work and communicate easily and effectively with a diverse array of clients, many of whom are based internationally. She provides her clients with expert legal advice involving pre- and post-nuptial agreements, cohabitation agreements, spousal maintenance orders and issues relating to child relocation after parental separation. 

She says: 'I work closely with my clients, ensuring that they remain in control of their case, while intelligently advising them through solicitor-led negotiation, court litigation, arbitration, collaborative practice or mediation.'
