I applied for DLA for my daughter in February 2009 and was FINALLY awarded Higher Rate Care and Mobility in November 2009 after being refused completely 3 times. I was driven totally to despair trying to cope with a sick child and dealing with the "system", and had it not been for David, I would almost certainly have been forced to give up as I had hit a brick wall. David took the pressure off me completely and took the claim to appeal. It was miraculously overturned without having to supply any further medical evidence and the eventual back-payment was just over £4,000 which, as you can imagine, was extremely useful!! Thank you so much to David - without him we would have ended up with nothing when it was quite obvious that my daughter was entitled to both components.
