Baldwin doesn’t like to put her feet up. Even when she took some time off to look after her children eleven years ago, the founder of the eponymous niche law firm sat as an immigration judge.
The straight-talking lawyer learnt the ropes at Kingsley Napley and Withers, where she worked with Diana Parker and Charles Doughty on what she has described as ‘extraordinary cases’ involving Greek shipping billionaires and European royalty, even acting for the wife of a Nigerian tribal chief (‘He was as rich as Croesus until I came along,’ she previously told Spear’s).
Recently, she has been increasingly advising on post-nups, with two types of clients in particular requesting them – those who got married for immigration purposes and didn’t have time to negotiate a pre-nup, and hedge fund managers who wanted to reassure their investors.
