About Charles
Biography
Charlie Young has been practicing family law in the Bay Area exclusively since 2016. Prior to that, Charlie gained extensive courtroom experience, first as an attorney representing parents in juvenile dependency matters, and then as a deputy public defender, where he handled both criminal and juvenile dependency matters. Charlie is a skilled trial attorney, having tried more than 100 bench trials and various jury trials.
Charlie believes that no two family law cases are alike and that each case requires a clear understanding of his client’s needs and ultimate goals in order to achieve the best outcome, whatever that may look like for a particular client. Charlie is an empathetic and compassionate advocate who is focused on alternative dispute resolution, yet he is prepared to vigorously litigate a case where necessary.
Although Charlie practices all areas of family law, he focuses on high-asset dissolutions, including those which may require collaboration with business counsel, estate planning counsel, and or criminal counsel. Charlie also specializes in contentious custody matters, including domestic and international relocation cases. Charlie is also experienced in complex domestic violence cases, including those which require forensic evidence and the use of leading national experts.
When Charlie is not with his partner and their two dogs, Wellington and Bailey, he can be found in a particular beach chair in Mexico or making his way through Europe, one coffee at a time. Charlie is also an avid music and theatre lover, and he enjoys spending time with friends and family.

Worthy attorney
Charles Young is an outstanding attorney. He listened to my thoughts fully, explained all my options, and gave his recommendations for my case. Once I chose the option I believed suited me the best, Charles respected my choice and moved forward with the case. He kept me fully informed of all progress...

"I was recently associated with Charlie in a high asset, high conflict matter in Seattle. In the course of our association, I was quickly impressed with Charlie's knowledge of substantive and procedural law as well as the seemingly limitless energy and zeal he brought to the case. Charlie's word is his bond, and when he states that he will do something you can rest assured that it will be done promptly, efficiently, effectively and professionally. I wholeheartedly endorse Charlie's work, and any client facing a domestic relations matter would be wise and well served to choose Charlie and his office."
