Pearl International Insights

As a practitioner of over 20yrs I have come across Dr Cameron’s reports frequently. The quality of those reports is evident from the fact they are bespoke, focused and presented in the correct amount of detail, whilst devoid of excessive or irrelevant commentary and do not stray into areas beyond the remit of a country expert. Barrister colleagues also recommend Dr Cameron to their instructing solicitors and each other, which is further testimony of her standing as a reputable country expert.

My colleague and I instructed Dr Cameron to provide us with an expert country report in relation to health (HIV, mental health and disability) and access to social assistance in Uganda, to assist the Court in the course of our client’s human rights appeal against the Home Office’s refusal of his claim for leave to remain in the UK. Dr Cameron’s report was detailed and thorough, including both a comprehensive literature review and insight from in-country actors in order to respond to the specific questions posed. Her report and follow up were invaluable to the success of the appeal. We also appreciated her patience and responsiveness in dealing with some challenges on the way! Much recommended for anyone seeking expert evidence on Uganda.

Thank you so much for your extremely swift turnaround (and in fact, the Adjudicator yesterday was also most appreciative of how swiftly you had produced your first Addendum for us as well – thank you!)

I instructed Hazel to complete two country expert reports on Zimbabwe. Hazel completed the reports very quickly and kept me updated the whole time. The reports themselves were brilliant and covered a vast range of the struggles my clients would have faced upon return to Zimbabwe. The reports were brilliantly written, comprehensive and easy to understand. I have recommended Hazel to colleagues and would definitely instruct her again

Your expert witness report was very thorough and persuasive. Thank you for your hard work on this case. I think it will have a big impact on the court’s decision.

I’ve had the pleasure of working with Dr Hazel Cameron with many of my immigration matters. She reliable, efficient and a very credible expert. Her work speaks volumes and she can identify the main issues and can provide a detailed, researched based analysis of the matter in hand. Her professional expertise and opinion has always been an important factor in determining the outcome of many cases. She is brilliant. I would highly recommend.

I instructed Hazel to draft an expert report focusing on the treatment of political dissidents in Zimbabwe, namely MDC members. Her report was detailed and her conclusions genuine; I believe that her expertise was invaluable in assisting with my client’s case. Hazel also contacted her connections in Zimbabwe and managed to authenticate documents we sought to rely on. She really went the extra mile and I would recommend her to anyone seeking expert opinion.

The case was successful. The Judge was very impressed with your report! Thank you!
