Managing Associate
DAYS WORKED PER WEEK: 1
Alexander acts for high profile individuals, families, corporates and not-for-profits, specialising in litigation, reputation and philanthropy. He has particular experience in successfully driving change and securing outcomes for his clients through litigation strategies and public advocacy, often in a multi-jurisdictional context. Having trained first as a zoologist, in 2014 Alexander co-founded Stop Ivory, an NGO that offered a new approach to tackling the illegal ivory trade. Alexander established the organisation from his office at Mishcon de Reya, which supported the growth of the initiative from the outset. In two years, he secured policy change to close domestic ivory markets in several countries, developed best practice standards and guidelines for elephant conservation, and was appointed CEO. He now sits on the charity’s board and continues to drive the multi-million pound initiative.
