David Allen Green

After being awarded the Sir Thomas More and Hardwicke Scholarships by Lincoln's Inn, Green was called to the Bar in 1999 and became a solicitor in 2001. Formerly a lawyer at Baker McKenzie, Herbert Smith, and the Treasury Solicitor, he is now (and since 2009) head of the media practice at Preiskel & Co.

In 2010, he advised Sally Bercow over possible libel action by think tank MigrationWatch UK and their chairman Sir Andrew Green which was later dropped.

In 2012, Green was listed on the Independent on Sunday Pink List, a list of influential British LGBT people. On Twitter, Green said that he was bisexual in response to the listings. He has also said that he was "not Christened, and am still less a Christian".

He led the defence in the Twitter Joke Trial, in which defendant Paul Chambers was acquitted on appeal on 27 July 2012.

In 2012, he gave evidence to the Leveson Inquiry into the culture, practices and ethics of the British press.

Green is a blogger on his own blog, and previously one under the name Jack of Kent (named after Jack o' Kent), is a columnist on law and policy for the Financial Times; and has contributed to the New Statesman, The Guardian, The Lawyer, and the New Scientist in the past. He has been a guest on the Remainiacs podcast several times in 2019, and has used his expertise to explain aspects of United Kingdom constitutional law as they relate to Brexit and the 2019 British prorogation controversy.
