Legal 500 Editorial commentary
Testimonials
Collated independently by Legal 500 research team.
‘The standard of client care is second to none, particularly for individuals. They are able to deal with the most sensitive of cases and the most fragile of clients. When working for unions and associations they are conscious of the political and campaigning aspects of their work and seek to promote these objectives of their clients via test case and campaigning litigation.’
‘Edward Cooper stands out for his ability, and diplomacy, not just in relation to individual clients, where he always goes the extra mile, but also for organisations to whose cases he brings an acute strategic brain.’
