Being an Associate Member allows him to concentrate on his several academic interests: he has been a Non-Stipendiary Lecturer in Roman Law and Contract Law at St Edmund Hall, Oxford, and a Retained Fee Lecturer at Somerville College, Oxford. He also teaches on the Barrister Training Course at BPP University, specialising in Civil Procedure and Commercial Dispute Resolution.

His principal area of research is private international law, focusing on jurisdiction and the recognition and enforcement of foreign judgments. He has, along with Andrew Moran KC, co-authored a leading practitioner text concerned with the private international law rules employed in Anglophone African countries. In addition, he has, along with Dr Sarah McKibbin, of the University of Southern Queensland, edited a collection of papers looking at the common law jurisprudence of the conflict of laws. Anthony also edits the International Private Law section of the Lloyd’s International Maritime and Commercial Law Yearbook.
