Edward Cumming

Edward specialises in most areas of chancery and commercial work as part of his busy practice. Chambers and Partners (2012) recommends him as an 'up and coming' chancery junior who is "surely destined for great things" and he has been described as a "rising star" by Legal 500, which also recommends him as a leading junior for insolvency work. Solicitors recognise him as "one to watch for the future" and value his advice which is "bullish, as well as accurate and realistic". "Engaging, vibrant and smart", Edward is said to have "shown himself to be 'confident, thorough and an excellent drafter of documents" as well as a "formidable advocate" with "a fearlessness that makes him fight hard for his clients". He is praised as "popular","always upbeat and technically very strong" and "very bright, upbeat and positive".
