Disability benefits cover financial support for people with disabilities or long-term health conditions, including how to qualify for grants, payments and reductions. A solicitor in this area helps clients apply for and appeal decisions on benefits such as Personal Independence Payment (PIP), Disability Living Allowance (DLA) for certain ages, Employment and Support Allowance (ESA) and related elements of Universal Credit. They gather medical evidence, prepare assessments, challenge or revise assessments, and represent clients at tribunals if necessary. The work often involves deadlines, form-filling and navigating complex eligibility criteria.
A solicitor handles the specific rules around eligibility for disability benefits, the medical criteria used by decision-makers, the collection of supporting evidence, and the interaction with regional disability benefit offices. They manage legacies like DLA where applicable, and the process of appealing adverse decisions, including preparing for and attending tribunals, with attention to deadlines and the detailed criteria that affect entitlement.

Like many families we have a need to cover all bases when it comes to children with special needs. Hansells provided just such a service which we cannot speak highly enough about.
