Edward Langford
Solicitor — Cross-Border Fraud & Corruption
Solicitor London Solicitor in an SRA-regulated legal practice
This profile describes representative areas of work. Current practising status can be checked on the public SRA record.
Role and focus
Edward is a solicitor advising on fraud and corruption matters where important facts, people or assets sit in more than one jurisdiction. He assesses forum, service, evidence, interim relief and enforceability before proceedings are issued.
He coordinates appropriately qualified local counsel for foreign-law advice and procedural steps, with the client's approval. Registry, tracing and investigative work is integrated into a single legal timetable.
Edward gives clients a practical view of recognition, enforcement, delay and cost in each relevant jurisdiction. An English order does not automatically operate overseas, and the cross-border plan reflects that limitation.
