EWI Annual Conference 2007

The Expert Witness Institutes’ Annual Conference is
one of the largest gatherings of expert witnesses
across all the professions. This year’s event promises
to be a winner, and we are delighted to be presenting
aprogramme which is varied and topical, as well as
enjoyable.
The fallout from GMC v Meadow, and from lurid and
often ill-informed media coverage of other recent
cases, has discouraged some from undertaking
expert witness work.  This conference aims to correct
false perceptions, to restate and emphasise the
crucial role of experts in the cause of justice, and to
emphasise the undiminished need for high calibre
expert evidence in so many areas with which the law
is concerned.
Current topics of interest and importance will be
addressed by high-profile speakers from politics, the
media, as well as by experts at the top their
professions, and the conference will provide the
opportunity to meet and shareviews and experiences
with colleagues in your own and other fields.
The programme will be stimulating and challenging, as
well as informative, but there will be light relief as well.
Sir Donald Sinden, distinguished actor, wit and
raconteur will round offthe day with reminiscences of
his long theatrical career, and of his role as an Appeal
Court Judge in the television series  “Judge John
Deed” .
This year the conference returns to Church House
Westminster,which proved such a popular and
successful venue in 2005. Westrongly commend the
event to all expert witnesses. Do be sure to attend,
and think about bringing a guest or guests – in
particular with the aim of introducing colleagues who
have not yet taken up the challenge to the fascination
and rewards of legal work. The Justice System needs
you as much if not more than ever.
