Have you had the decision from the assessment yet?
If so, and he's not been awarded any PIP then the next step is a Mandatory Reconsideration. You can do this in writing (recommended instead of telephone) which may be easier for yourselves. This must be completed and returned to the DWP within a month of the decision though so don't leave it too long. -
