Anna Yarde talks to LexisNexis about the Future of the Bar in their latest YouTube interview


10th Apr 2025 | Webinars


In a recent conversation with Freya Davies at LexisNexis, Anna shared her journey into practice, offering invaluable advice for those navigating the competitive pupillage process. With candour and clarity, she discussed the core skills every aspiring barrister should focus on developing—resilience, adaptability, and clear communication among them.

Anna also reflected on the evolving role of social media in a barrister’s professional life. While the importance of maintaining integrity and professionalism remains paramount, she explained how platforms can be powerful tools for visibility, connection, and advocacy.

As the legal profession embraces change, Anna is a firm believer that the Bar’s traditions and values can not only coexist with—but be strengthened by—advancements in technology, including AI. Her forward-thinking perspective is a testament to the dynamic and progressive approach we champion at Harcourt Chambers.

Whether you’re considering a career at the Bar or simply interested in the evolving landscape of family law, Anna’s insight offers both inspiration and practical guidance.
