William Senior (1862–1937) was a British lawyer and legal historian.^[1] He was born in Wakefield, Yorkshire, the son of Thomas Senior, a local solicitor. William studied at Clare College, Cambridge 1879–1882, graduating B.A. He began practising as a solicitor himself in 1886, going into partnership 1890–1895 with his father and with Percival Barratt. When his father died, in 1895, he moved to London and trained as a barrister. He was called to the bar in 1896.

He was a contributor of short pieces on maritime history and law to Mariner's Mirror, as well as of satirical pieces to Punch, and also had poems published in The English Review, occasional pieces in Cornhill Magazine, and more substantial essays on maritime law in the Law Quarterly Review.
