We are delighted to announce that Naomi Wiseman, of the Garden Court Chambers Family Team, has been recognised in The Sunday Times Alternative Honours List for her pro bono advice to campaigners working to end child marriage and ban the harmful practice of hymenoplasty.
The Sunday Times stated:
"The family law barrister has been providing vital legal advice to campaigners working to end child marriage and virginity testing. Wiseman scored a victory in July, when the government committed to ban virginity testing and child marriages. Both laws have since been voted in by MPs."
