Continuing Healthcare (CHC) Funding Claims
We can assist people who are in a care home and wrongly paying fees that the NHS should be funding under the continuing healthcare funding scheme.
Alternatively, if you are receiving care in your own home and are worried about the costs, we can establish if you are entitled to receive financial help.
If you have lost a loved one who was paying for care, then we can carry out a retrospective assessment to find out if you are owed a refund by the NHS.
We can also appeal NHS Continuing Healthcare decisions where your claim for funding has been incorrectly rejected.

Specialist Healthcare Funding Lawyers
We appreciate that moving into a care facility or requiring care at home can be an upsetting and daunting time for everyone involved. We handle care fee claims with compassion and sensitivity and will explain every step of the process to you.
We are SRA regulated solicitors specialising in NHS Continuing Healthcare cases and are experienced in countering the arguments commonly raised by the NHS when refusing care funding.
Our lawyers will deal with your claim themselves from start to finish and will not pass your claim on to a third party, as is often the case with some companies that advertise this service.
Fixed Fee and No Win, No Fee Funding Options
We have a number of flexible options for funding legal costs, including our popular fixed fees schemes and, where appropriate, No Win, No Fee.
