Appeal Advice Service

Honest, impartial advice

If you have been assessed and turned down for NHS Continuing Healthcare, our Appeal Advice Service will help you decide whether to challenge the decision.

Whether you have been unsuccessful at MDT or Local Resolution stage, our experienced Case Managers will review the Decision Support Tool and give you their expert view.

If we do recommend appealing the decision, we will offer additional services and support. If we don’t think an appeal is likely to succeed, we will tell you: we are always completely honest with our clients about prospects of success. We only pursue valid claims.

Our approach…

The main steps involved in our Appeal Advice Service:

  • You send us the Decision Support Tool (and Local Resolution Report if applicable), along with any other evidence you want us to consider.
  • One of our experienced Case Managers reviews the information provided and prepares a summary report, offering their view as to the prospects of successfully appealing the decision.
  • We send you the report and arrange a meeting to answer any questions you might have, if desired.

 

Solicitor meeting

"Andrew had a high degree of expertise in this field and was able to offer practical advice on how best to prepare an evidenced based case. He was also able to identify areas where the framework had been incorrectly applied. With this expert knowledge and guidance, we were successful in our appeal and the original recommendation of the DST was overturned. Our mother was awarded full CHC funding, backdated with payments refunded. The best £300 we ever spent!"

Jane

"Through out my dealings with Farley Dwek I found them to be efficient and very helpful. But above all their honesty impressed me the most. Never have come across an organisation that would put ethics before profit. For this alone I would highly recommend them."

Tim

"I found this firm to be thorough, professional, knowledgeable, and available when needed. The outcome was exactly what we had been hoping for. I have no doubt that this firm played a significant role in achieving that."

CHC client

"Honest, straight-talking, knowledgeable solicitors. I contacted Farley Dwek via their online ‘contact us’ form regarding my father’s eligibility for NHS continuing care. I knew they were experts in the field and I had already paid for and downloaded their excellent guide on the subject. Despite the fact that it became quickly obvious that there was no case for them in this instance, Ruth still gave me close to an hour of her time and was compassionate, extremely knowledgeable and also willing to give me an honest, off-the-cuff appraisal of our situation and chances of receiving funding."

CHC client

"I am over the moon with the way in which Farley Dwek Solicitors have handled my late father’s claim. We were kept informed throughout the whole process and had frequent contact with our solicitor, Jonathan Dwek. His experience and empathy instilled great confidence and I am delighted with the outcome."
