EWI awards Honorary Fellowship to James Badenoch QC, Roger Clements and Chris Pamplin

bySimon Berney-Edwards

Honorary Fellowship is the highest recognition that EWI can give to a person of eminence who has rendered exceptional services to the expert witness community.

 

It can sometimes be awarded to members of the community as a reflection of the respect and regard of their colleagues for a particularly important contribution over a long period of time. 

 

It is also the means by which EWI can recognise those people who are not expert witnesses but have supported and contributed to the development and profile of the community. 

 

Honorary Fellows do not have to be EWI members but must have some kind of relationship or link to the expert witness community.

 

At the Sir Michael Davis Lecture on the 23rd March 2022, the EWI awarded three exceptional people this Honour by our President, Lord Hodge.

 

James Badenoch QC was awarded Honorary Fellowship for outstanding service to the Institute. James served as Chair of the Institute from 2004 to 2013 providing essential leadership for the organisation and tirelessly advocating on behalf of the Expert Witness Community.

 

Roger Clements was awarded Honorary Fellowshipfor outstanding service to the Institute. Roger was instrumental in the creation of the Institute and served as a Board member from its creation in 1997 through to 2019. In his time as a Governor he served on both the Education and Training Committee and Membership Committee and took an active role in shaping and developing the Institute over the years.

 

Chris Pamplin was awarded Honorary Fellowship for outstanding service and development of resources supporting the Expert Witness community.

 

Unfortunately, Chris was unable to attend, but we will be presenting him with his Certificate soon.#
