Alex Jamieson
Position
Alex is regarded as one of the country’s leading junior barristers, practicing principally in the areas of:
- national security;
- inquests and inquiries;
- regulatory law; and
- Business and organised crime.
He is a tenacious and results-driven advocate. The hallmarks of his practice are forensic analysis, strategic advice and uncompromising advocacy. The unifying feature of his broad specialism is those cases that engage substantial conflict between the interests of the individual and the State.
Alex has been an appointee of the Attorney General’s panel of Special Advocates since 2017. As such, he has the necessary experience and security clearance to represent individuals in formal Closed proceedings and those that otherwise deal with matters of national security.
Alex is often called upon to represent interested persons in inquest and inquiry proceedings (both families and those under scrutiny). He is currently instructed to represent the bereaved families of those killed in the Manchester Arena Bombing Public Inquiry. He also recently represented the family a young soldier who died at the notorious “Deepcut” barracks, both in proceedings before the High Court and at the re-inquest.
Alex has many years of experience in the litigation of allegations of fraud and of serious organised crime. He tends to be particularly sought after where factually and legally complex allegations are concerned.
As well as providing courtroom representation, Alex advises individuals and corporates, particularly in the areas of regulatory compliance and investigations. Recent clients have included international sporting bodies and household-name corporates.
Alex can accept Direct Public Access instruction
