Combining the law and academia, Charlotte is a Fellow at Queens' College, Cambridge where she researches and lectures on gender inequality under the law. Charlotte was awarded a doctorate in FGM law and policy from King's College, Cambridge. She has since written a book, 'FGM: When Culture and Law Clash', which was published by Oxford University Press. As an expert in FGM, Charlotte was instrumental in the introduction of FGM Protection Orders (FGMPOs) and she continues to represent victims of FGM in court.​

"She is a leader in the field of FGM law whose research has made a significant contribution to scholarship in this area and has had an impact on case law and law reform in England and Wales"

"Charlotte is never shy of helping us test the boundaries of the law, or of tackling a relatively new form of domestic abuse, widespread image-based abuse (revenge porn), or raising novel arguments arising under the Equality Act, which have yet to be tested in court"

--- Dr Ann Olivarius, Chair and Senior Partner of McAllister Olivarius
