Immigration & Asylum Tribunals
The network master hub for immigration expert witnesses. We connect immigration solicitors, law firms, and Legal Aid practitioners with qualified expert witnesses for asylum appeals, deportation proceedings, country guidance challenges, and Upper Tribunal cases — with CPR Part 35 independence and oral evidence capability.
immigration tribunals rely on independent expert witnesses whose paramount duty is to the tribunal — not the instructing party. Expert witness evidence is governed by CPR Part 35, Ikarian Reefer independence principles, and the Immigration Tribunal Practice Direction on expert evidence (2024), with additional guidance from the Adam Pipe October 2025 expert report guide.
Practice Direction 2024, Adam Pipe 2025, Ikarian Reefer independence, and oral evidence at FTT and UT hearings — the witness framework solicitors need.
