Human Rights lawyer Amal Clooney robes up as she appears at Strasbourg
court looking very confident
The 36-year-old is back to work and at the Human Rights court in Strasbourg

In between attending awards shows, spending time in Italy and looking
utterly chic, Amal Clooney is a lawyer.
And today the 36-year-old headed back to work as she attended a
hearing at the European court of Human Rights in Strasbourg.
The brunette looked just the part wearing full court dress and a
rather large smile on her face - clearly excited about getting her
teeth stuck into the case.
She and her colleague Robertson will represent Armenia during a
hearing on the case of Dogu Perincek, Chairman of the Turkish Workers
Party, against Switzerland. Perincek was found guilty of racial
discrimination by a Swiss Police Court for having publicly denied the
characterisation of genocide, without calling into question the
existence of massacres and deportations of Armenians in 1915 in the
Ottoman Empire, during various conferences in Switzerland in 2005.
Perincek claims that the Swiss courts breached his freedom of expression.
Well, no wonder George is so utterly enamoured with her.
He recently praised her when he picked up the an award for his
outstanding contribution to entertainment at the Golden Globes.
"I've had a pretty good year myself..., "he said.
"Listen: It's a humbling thing when you find someone to love - even
better when you've been waiting your whole life. And when your whole
life is 53 years, Amal, whatever alchemy it is that brought us
together, I couldn't be more proud to be your husband."
George Clooney pays genuine and loving tribute to Amal
