About Asylum Expert
Independent expert knowledge for immigration and asylum proceedings worldwide — for everyone who needs it.
Our Mission
Asylum Expert was founded to make independent, authoritative expert knowledge accessible in immigration and asylum proceedings — for law firms, NGOs, and individuals, regardless of the resources available to them.
The stakes in asylum cases are profound. A decision can mean safety or return to persecution. Expert evidence about country conditions, cultural context, and credibility can shape those outcomes. We exist to ensure that evidence is rigorous, independent, and available to those who need it.
Our Values
Independence
Expert opinions formed without institutional allegiance, political position, or outcome interest. The only commitment is to accuracy.
Rigour
Country condition reports and expert analyses grounded in current, verifiable, primary-source evidence — not outdated guidance or generalisation.
Accessibility
Expert witness services must be available to law firms, NGOs, and individuals — not only to well-resourced parties.
Humanity
Every case involves a person. Every report is written with that awareness.
Standards & Quality
Jurisdiction-tailored reports
Reports are prepared to the evidentiary and procedural standards of your forum — CPR Part 35, Federal Rules of Evidence, and equivalent requirements worldwide.
Primary-source research
Country condition analysis draws on current, verifiable sources — not recycled guidance or generalised assumptions.
Matched expertise
Experts are selected for the specific combination of country, case type, language, and jurisdiction each matter requires.
Clear scope before instruction
We agree deliverables, timeline, and fees before work begins. No obligation arises from an initial enquiry alone.
Country Specialists
We work with academics, former diplomats, human rights researchers, and country specialists who can provide independent, rigorous expert evidence in asylum and immigration proceedings worldwide. If you have deep country knowledge and experience communicating complex context to tribunals and courts, we would like to hear from you.
