James Fitzwilliam (died 1420) was an Irish landowner and judge who held the office of Chief Baron of the Irish Exchequer. He was the ancestor of the prominent Dublin landowning family which acquired the titles Viscount FitzWilliam and Earl of Tyrconnell. He was the son of Hugh Fitzwilliam. The Fitzwilliam family are recorded in Dublin from about 1210. By the time of James' birth they were already considerable landowners in Dublin, with their estates centred on Dundrum and Swords. Few details of his legal career survive, but it is known that he was Chief Baron by 1413 and was superseded in 1417.
