Barbara Mary Hewson (died 9 January 2021) was an Irish barrister with a practice in public law. Hewson specialises in Court of Protection work, human rights, judicial review, and regulatory defence cases. She is interested in reproductive health and the rights of pregnant women, the mentally incapacitated and the mentally ill. A controversial advocate for lowering the age of consent, in the wake of the Jimmy Savile scandal to end the "persecution of old men", the removal of anonymity in sexual abuse cases and the ending of Operation Yewtree, she was suspended from practice for two years for offensive social media comments in December 2019.
