Professor Brooke Marshall

Dr Brooke Marshall is a multilingual academic lawyer and writer, with more than a decade of experience in Comparative Law and Private International Law. Her work explores how different legal systems respond to challenges confronting people when they work, transact, migrate, litigate, or fall in love across borders. She is an Associate Professor of Law at the University of Oxford and a Tutorial Fellow of St Edmund Hall. Brooke is the author of Asymmetric Jurisdiction Clauses, published by Oxford University Press in 2023, and of academic articles and policy submissions. She holds a Dr iur (summa cum laude) from the University of Hamburg, an MA from the University of Oxford, and a BA/LLB (Hons) from The University of Queensland. Brooke speaks French fluently, German proficiently, and Spanish like a five-year-old.

As a Tutorial Fellow at St Edmund Hall, Dr Marshall co-leads the undergraduate and graduate teaching program in Law, and supports the college’s Law students from day one to the end of their degree. In that role, she is responsible for teaching English Contract Law and Roman Law, in which we find the historical and comparative roots of modern private law. She teaches Conflict of Laws in the BCL graduate course, as an Associate Professor in Oxford’s Faculty of Law. Dr Marshall serves as a trustee of St Edmund Hall and on the Management Committee of the Faculty’s Institute for European and Comparative Law (IECL).
