Professor Brooke Marshall

Dr Brooke Marshall is a multilingual academic and lawyer, with extensive experience in Private International Law and Comparative Law.

She is an Associate Professor of Law at the University of Oxford and a Governing Body and Tutorial Fellow of St Edmund Hall.

Brooke is the author of Asymmetric Jurisdiction Clauses, for which she was awarded the 2025 Inner Temple New Authors’ Book Prize, and of academic articles and policy submissions.
