Jill’s Story

We helped with

CHC funding

Farley Dwek Solicitors were instructed by ‘Jill’ (not her real name) in July 2018. Her Mother, Mrs X (for anonymity) had been assessed in October 2017 and found not eligible for CHC funding despite having multiple complex and challenging healthcare needs. The negative outcome had been appealed by Jill prior to her Mother’s death in April 2018, and she subsequently sought our support and advocacy representation in connection with the appeal.

We reviewed evidence and prepared a full Appeal Submission in readiness for the NHS Local Resolution appeal meeting. The CCG upheld the appeal and agreed that Mrs X was eligible for full CHC funding from October 2017 to the date of death in April 2018.

We had also noted that Mrs X had not previously been assessed for CHC funding from admission into the Care Home in February 2016 until October 2017. Following the successful appeal, we requested that the CCG now undertake a retrospective review of this unassessed period as well. The CCG’s review concluded that Mrs X was eligible for CHC funding for part of this period, too.

In total, Farley Dwek have successfully helped Jill recover 14 months of CHC funding for her late mother’s care.

Without Farley Dwek's encouragement and perseverance, I don’t think that I would have proceeded with the claim, nor would it have resulted in such a successful outcome without their professional input at every stage. Their attention to detail, care and support throughout this process has been exemplary.

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.

From first contact with the managing partner Andrew Farley and Ruth Pople, Senior Case Manager , Farley Dwek appeared to be a very well organised Law firm. The staff is very professional and takes all the time to explain sometimes complicated situations.

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.
