Ed is an Associate Director in our real estate litigation team in Bristol. He acts for a wide range of clients across a number of the firm’s key sectors, with a focus on clients operating in The Built Environment sector.

He has broad development sector expertise, having acted for and advised commercial and residential developers, real estate investors and land promoters.

Ed’s commercial and residential developer experience includes advising on development disputes involving rights of way, rights of light and other easements, restrictive covenants, boundary disputes and the interpretation and exercise of promotion, option and overage agreements.

Helping you succeed in tomorrow's world

I have organised and participated in volunteering activities at the Bristol Law Centre, assisting tenants with property issues such as deposit returns and lease terminations. It has been a fulfilling experience, helping a diverse range of people, from students to older individuals with limited internet access. It has been rewarding and very different from the work I do with our FTSE250 developer clients!
