Mrs X’s Success Story

We helped with

Retrospective Review

Farley Dwek Solicitors were instructed on behalf of the late Mrs X to pursue a retrospective claim for NHS Continuing Healthcare Funding (CHC) against her local Clinical Commissioning Group for wrongly paid care home fees.

Initially, upon retrospective assessment, the CCG concluded that Mrs X was eligible for CHC Funding for the last 5 months in care before she passed away. However, the CCG rejected the claim for CHC for any prior period of care. Farley Dwek remained dissatisfied with this outcome arguing that the CCG’s decision was flawed.

Farley Dwek then pursued an appeal to an Independent Review Panel held by NHS England.

The IRP found that the CCG’s decision was unsound and Mrs X was eligible for CHC for the full prior period of care under appeal.

In total, the team at Farley Dwek Solicitors have helped Mrs X’s family recover over £45,000 in care fees.

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.

We approached FD for help in appealing a faulty CHC funding decision. Highly impressed with the in-depth & very detailed investigation by their expert nursing practitioner. Eventually we got a very good result which was entirely the result of FD’s work. Definitely recommended.

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.

CHC client

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.

Chris Gregg

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.
