British Medical Experts approved as an EWI Corporate Partner

by Wiebke Morgan

EWI is delighted to announce that British Medical Experts have been approved as a Corporate Partner.

 

British Medical Experts is the latest organisation to join EWI’s Corporate Partnership scheme. This scheme, which is open to any organisation who employs or manages a panel of experts, seeks to recognise those organisations which ensure the quality of their experts; ensuring they are appropriately qualified and encouraging staff or panel members to develop their skills as an expert witness.

 

British Medical Experts are an established group of senior medical consultants and dentists with a focus on delivering independent, expert evidence to the courts, on instruction from solicitors, representing their clients, for claimants and defendants. Their experts provide the courts in the UK with well-structured medico legal reports that meet the requirements set out in CPR35, PD35, and Guidance for the Instruction of Experts in Civil Claims 2014.

 

All their experts have a genuine interest in providing their expert opinion to assist the courts in the assessment of personal injury and clinical negligence claims.

 

Simon Berney-Edwards, CEO of the Expert Witness Institute, said: “We are pleased to confirm British Medical Experts’ status as one of our Corporate Partners. The Membership Committee were particularly impressed by the organisation’s commitment to training for Experts and ongoing CPD. We are delighted to have them on board as one of our Corporate Partners.”

 

Dr Sandeep Senghara, Managing Director and Dental Expert Witness, said, “British Medical Experts are delighted to become an EWI Corporate Partner. This strategic alliance reflects our shared commitment to upholding excellence, ethical standards, and advancing expert witness standards , in the judicial system. Together with EWI, we embark on a journey to elevate the standards of expert witness services, in the legal sector."
