Charlie Smith

I am an Associate in the Regulatory team, having qualified in September 2023 after training at Fieldfisher for two years. I have advised on a wide range of competition, trade, public and regulatory matters. Highlights of my recent client work include:

• Assisting an environmental NGO in bringing an Aarhus Convention judicial review claim against Defra;
• Acting for several public bodies in their defence of a judicial review claim relating to the conduct of a consultation;
• Advising various UK Government departments on the negotiation of international treaties; and
• Representing a director in relation to director disqualification proceedings brought by the Competition and Markets Authority. 

Prior to joining Fieldfisher, I achieved a First Class Degree in Law from University College London before obtaining a Distinction in the LPC from the University of Law.
