The Chartered Institute of Legal Executives (CILEX) has appointed Eileen Milner who will take over as chair from Professor Chris Bones in January 2025. Yanthé Richardson also begins her year-long term as president.
Law Society of England and Wales chief executive officer Ian Jeffery said:
“We thank Chris for the work he has done leading CILEX over the past six years. His work leading CILEX has seen the organisation make strides in removing barriers for its members.
“There have been issues during Chris’ tenure on which CILEX and the Law Society have worked closely with a common viewpoint and others where we have respectfully differed. In all areas we have enjoyed constructive and professional dealings and thank Chris for his personal contribution to that.
“We wish Chris every success in his future endeavours and look forward to welcoming Eileen to the role of chair at the start of 2025.”
