Feminist barrister Charlotte Proudman has opened her own family law firm providing ‘trauma-informed’ representation, in a bid to improve the experience of clients and drive change in the court process.

Proudmans opens today in London and Cambridge, specialising in financial remedy after divorce, and private and international children proceedings, with a particular focus on helping those affected by domestic abuse.

Regulated by the Solicitors Regulation Authority, the firm will operate as an alternative business structure, combining solicitors, barristers and paralegals to offer a one-stop shop to the public.
