This is Toby Cadman. There are certain aspects of this profile which is not accurate. I did not go to Inns of Court School of Law but to BPP Law School. I did not work on the Andrei Lugovoi case or the Laurent Gbagbo case. I would also prefer that you use the photo from my Guernica 37 profile https://www.g37chambers.com/toby-cadman 2A02:C7C:ECCB:A700:F1E2:5A46:36ED:D5FE (talk) 20:28, 11 January 2025 (UTC)Reply

== Edit request from the article subject ==

The user below has a request that an edit be made to Toby Cadman. That user has an actual or apparent conflict of interest. The requested edits backlog is very high. Please be extremely patient. There are currently 923 requests waiting for review. Please read the instructions for the parameters used by this template for accepting and declining them, and review the request below and make the edit if it is well sourced, neutral, and follows other Wikipedia guidelines and policies. Remember to set the |answered= parameter to "yes" when the request has been accepted, rejected or on hold awaiting user input.

Conflict-of-interest disclosure: I am Toby Cadman, the subject of this article. In line with Wikipedia's conflict-of-interest guidance I am not editing the article directly, but am requesting the corrections below. Each concerns a factual inaccuracy. Several are statements that appear to be unsupported by any reliable source and which, being incorrect, I ask be removed or corrected in accordance with WP:BLP. I am happy to supply sources for any of them.

1. Current chambers — Outline Chambers, not Guernica 37 Chambers. The article presents me through Guernica 37 Chambers. I am now Head of Outline Chambers in London. Please update the article to describe me as Head of Outline Chambers. A prior association with Guernica 37 Chambers may remain, but in the past tense. Suggested sources: Outline Chambers — https://www.outlinechambers.com ; and my Legal 500 profile — https://www.legal500.com/firms/237401-outline-chambers/r-england/barristers/5378138-toby-cadman

2. Bangladesh — post resigned in December 2025. The article states that I am "currently" Special Advisor to the Chief Prosecutor of the International Crimes Tribunal of Bangladesh. I resigned that post in December 2025. Please change the present-tense wording to the past tense and note that I resigned the position in December 2025. Source: [to be supplied — a reliable news report of the resignation].

3. The Gambia v. Myanmar (International Court of Justice) — incorrect. The article states that I contributed to The Gambia v. Myanmar proceedings before the ICJ. This is incorrect: I did not act in that case. As the statement is both inaccurate and, so far as I can see, unsourced, I request its removal in accordance with WP:BLP.

4. Prosecutor v. Laurent Gbagbo (International Criminal Court) — incorrect. The article states that I worked on the ICC case concerning Laurent Gbagbo. This is incorrect: I did not act in that case. As the statement is inaccurate and, so far as I can see, unsourced, I request its removal in accordance with WP:BLP.

5. Andrei Lugovoi extradition (Litvinenko matter) — incorrect. The article states that I advised on matters relating to the extradition of Andrei Lugovoi in connection with the Litvinenko case. This is incorrect. As the statement is inaccurate and, so far as I can see, unsourced, I request its removal in accordance with WP:BLP.

Thank you for considering these corrections. I am glad to provide any further detail or sourcing that would assist.
