Appeal Representation

Expert case management

If you are embarking on the Local Resolution process after an MDT or preparing for an Independent Review Panel following an unsuccessful local appeal for Continuing Healthcare, we can help you present your case effectively.

If you need help with a CHC Appeal, the first stage is our Appeal Advice Service. If we do recommend appeal, instructing us to represent you can maximise your chances of success.

Successful CHC appeals depend on presenting the right evidence, in the right way. Our specialist team can do the hard work for you and ensure the NHS has the information it needs to make the right decision.

Our experienced Case Managers can provide expert representation at both Local Resolution Meetings and Independent Review Panels, giving you invaluable support.

Providing you with in-depth advice about the merits of the claim
Subject to merits, lodging appeal with the NHS, preparing Written Submissions and dealing with all correspondence
Preparing for and attending the Local Resolution Meeting and/or Independent Review Panel; providing expert representation
Reviewing the outcome and offering our advice

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.

My family and I cannot rate Farley Dwek Solicitors high enough for all their work in helping us with a successful appeal to grant my father CHC in his care home. As soon as I contacted them I felt listened to and supported and our solicitor Debbie was nothing short of incredible. Very knowledgeable in her field, always ready to offer insight and support and quick to respond to queries, we would have been lost without her! If you are looking for some advice and guidance on CHC’s look no further. Recommend without hesitation.

I cannot recommend FARLEY DWEK enough should you find yourself in this unfortunate situation. They ring you when they say they will, they write to you with updates and keep you informed all the way. I'd like to especially thank Ruth Pople and Jonathan Dwek who I regularly spoke to during the process.

A sound investment! I had researched a number of firms offering assistance to help secure CHC funding for our Mum. I was very glad I chose Farley Dwek. Both my brother and I are retired solicitors and are able plough our way through regulatory material and legislation, However, neither of us had any experience in this area of law. I really appreciated Farley Dwek’s transparent and sensible advice. I would recommend doing the initial screening exercise with one of their nurses, we had the excellent Diane Jenkins for screening (and eventual support at the MDT).

What a life saver Farley Dwek were to myself and my Family. From the first point of contact to the final consultation, the whole process was clear and easy to understand. I 100000% recommend this people focus company that have fantastic work ethics and are so very knowledgeable. I’m so grateful for all the support.
