Position

Edward is recognised as a leader in the field of extradition law and has extensive experience in defending requested persons in extradition proceedings.

Edward’s expertise in extradition law spans over 18 years and during that time, he has provided strategic advice and representation to individuals facing extradition to a wide range of jurisdictions across the world and has an enviable record in defeating such requests, including those emanating from the USA, Russia, Ecuador and India. He has conducted hundreds of Arrest Warrant cases from almost every EU member state. He was part of the legal team advising Julian Assange.

Edward also advises on a variety of criminal litigation matters. An experienced criminal defence lawyer, he has conducted a wide range of cases from police station through to trial. His criminal litigation practice covers a broad spectrum of offences ranging from complex fraud to serious sexual offences, violence and murder. He has extensive experience acting for younger clients involved in serious criminal cases having spent many years in the Youth Courts of London. Edward advises clients accused of serious road traffic offences involving fatalities.

His expertise in extradition means that Edward is ideally placed to provide strategic advice to individuals who are subject to (or believe they may be subject to) INTERPOL red notices. He has successfully made representations on clients’ behalf to the Commission for the Control of INTERPOL’s Files (‘CCF’) for the deletion of red notices and, where pre-emptive representations have been made, for red notices not to be issued.

Edward is the co-author of ‘Extradition Law: A Practitioner’s Guide’, published by Legal Action Group (3rd edition 2021). He is also the Co-Founder and past Chair of the Defence Extradition Lawyers Forum.

Edward has given evidence before the House of Lords Select Committee on Extradition and his evidence featured extensively in their final report.
