About

Built so that good evidence is not a luxury.

Asylum Expert Witness supplies certified expert witnesses and advisory services to asylum and international protection proceedings worldwide. The firm exists to put authoritative, independent expert evidence within reach of the whole legal system — from specialist practices to legal aid charities.

Position

The stakes in asylum proceedings are unusual: safety, liberty, and the shape of the rest of someone's life. Decision-makers are asked to assess risk and credibility about places they have never been, often on thin and contested country evidence.

Our work sits precisely there. We provide the specialist country, cultural, and risk analysis that lets a tribunal weigh a claim on evidence rather than assumption — and we write it to the standards of the forum that will read it.

How we work

Four commitments.

Independence
Expert evidence free from institutional allegiance, political positioning, or interest in the outcome.
Rigour
Every report grounded in current, verifiable, primary-source evidence, with methodology stated openly.
Accessibility
Support shaped for legal aid and NGO casework as well as private firms, because access to evidence should not track resources.
Humanity
Every file concerns a person. Every report is written with that responsibility in view.

The panel

Country specialists, matched to the claim.

Experts are matched to each instruction by country specialism, practice area, language, and procedural context. We do not publish individual profiles without consent — availability and credentials are confirmed when we respond to your brief.
