Interview with Alexander Brown, commercial litigation and arbitration barrister at One Essex Court

In this episode, Camilla Uppal speaks with Alex Brown, a commercial litigation and arbitration barrister at One Essex Court.

Alex studied Politics and Philosophy at Warwick University, completed his pupillage at One Essex Court and has been practising as a barrister for ten years. In this time, he has worked on a wide variety of commercial law cases that range in value from a few hundred thousand to hundreds of millions!

Alex highlights the efforts that are currently being made to widen the pool of candidates in a career that has often been seen as exclusively for Oxbridge students, and speaks about his own journey to the bar.

Alex also provides key insight into what will make a pupillage application stand out, and what you can expect from pupillage interviews.
