Israeli lawyer faces ethics complaint over expert opinion used to target IDF reservist in UK
To build the prosecution's case, ICJP contacted attorney Michal Pomeranz to provide an Expert Witness Report, which she submitted on Oct 18, 2025, in her capacity as a member of the Israeli Bar.
Israeli lawyer Michal Pomeranz faces an ethics complaint from an IDF reservist who claims her expert opinion contributed to his wrongful targeting in the UK. Pomeranz provided her expert testimony to the International Center for Justice for Palestinians (ICJP), which sought to bring a private prosecution against British-Israeli dual citizen Soldier A for serving in the IDF reserve unit.
The UK court ultimately ruled against the ICJP's attempt, deeming it "fundamentally misconceived in law" and "egregious" in its approach. Soldier A now claims Pomeranz may have violated Israeli professional ethics by offering an expert opinion that aided the prosecution's efforts against him and potentially other dual British-Israeli citizens.
