Harry Pell

I am a student on the Bar Course at the Inns of Court College of Advocacy and recipient of the Exhibition Scholarship from Inner Temple. In 2025, I graduated from the University of Greenwich with a first-class Bachelor of Laws (Hons) and ranked at the top of my cohort.

During my undergraduate studies, I won the ESU–Essex Court Chambers National Mooting Competition — the UK's oldest and most prestigious national moot — and mooted in the International Criminal Court in The Hague, scoring within the highest bands for both written and oral advocacy. My academic strengths led to my co-authoring a case note published in Lloyd's Shipping & Trade Law, and in 2025 I won 7 Bedford Row's Annual Essay Competition.

My passion for advocacy has also led me to volunteer as an advocacy tutor since 2024, coaching students in both national and international moot competitions and mock trials. Growing up in five different countries has developed in me a high level of cultural fluency, interpersonal skills and has shaped my interest in building a cross-border legal practice. Advocacy has been the highlight of my academic journey, and it is what led me to pursue a career at the Criminal Bar. I am committed to ensuring as many students as possible have the opportunity to enjoy advocacy as much as I do.
