Sir Andrew William Baker (born 21 December 1965), styled The Hon. Mr Justice Andrew Baker, is a judge of the High Court of England and Wales. He is currently Judge in Charge of the Admiralty Court.
He was educated at Lenzie Academy, read mathematics at Merton College, Oxford, and completed a postgraduate diploma in law at City, University of London.
He was called to the bar at Lincoln's Inn in 1988. He was made a judge of the High Court of Justice (Queen's Bench Division) in 2016 and invested a knight in the 2016 Special Honours.
