Awaiting tribunal

Advocatemum

I have been reading through some horrible cases on here. Sadly, our story is just the same.

Our learning disabled daughter has been in receipt of PIP (previously DLA) since childhood. 3 years ago, it was suddenly determined that she was no longer entitled. We went through a tribunal, that was no less than horrendous. She was however appropriately awarded PIP from that judgement.

Three years later we find ourselves in the same situation. Assessment failed, MR failed, now awaiting a date for tribunal.

Feel so let down by the system. Leading questions and damned right lies. I have masters education and find it difficult to navigate this system. How do those without support fair??

Hi @Advocatemum Welcome to the Community. I hope you enjoy being part of the forum. As you have already seen you are not alone in finding the system challenging. I hope you get a Tribunal date soon. Any questions just ask. Take care.

Good afternoon @Advocatemum and a warm welcome to the community. 🙂

I'm sorry to read about your experience of claiming PIP for your daughter, although I'm glad you felt able to share it with us.

I agree with what you've said, it is sad to think about those fighting to navigate the system with no support.

Best of luck with your tribunal, please let us know how you get on.
