Rupert Myers BA (Cantab)

Rupert read law at Emmanuel College Cambridge and went on to be an Inner Temple Exhibitioner before coming to East Anglian Chambers, where he accepted a tenancy upon completion of his pupillage under Caroline Bryant and John Brooke-Smith.

Rupert has experienced many areas of East Anglian Chambers’ practice and has appeared in the Magistrates, County and Crown Courts of the region, as well as the High Court. Rupert completed a broad criminal and civil law pupillage, providing advice in personal injury and employment cases, and much of his practice has been spent acting for both defence and prosecution in public and privately brought criminal cases.

Before becoming a barrister, Rupert debated for Inner Temple and Cambridge University in national and international competitions, and spent time at law firms in Tokyo (Linklaters) and Sydney (Allens Arthur Robinson). Rupert grew up in East Anglia, and was a scholar at Woodbridge School.

Interests

When not working Rupert enjoys long walks, sometimes up steep mountains abroad, and the odd bit of writing, some of which can be found here.
