Good Appeal Representation? was created by Vivacia
Hi guys,
So I've been claiming ESA for CFS and had a review which I failed (no surprise there then ). This will be my second appeal and the first time my rep was a solicitor that I was sent to through CAB because they couldnt help me before the form was due. She wasn't very helpful at all and I got awarded purely on the back of my doctors letter, which she only managed to sort out 3days before the appeal!
Can you tell me some organisations I can contact for help? If possible I would like a rep that can come in with me as its blooming stressful!
I know welfare in my area don't help with ESA because there are too many appeals.
Any suggestions appreciated!

Unfortunately, the funding for many advice organisations up and down the country has been cut. Nevertheless, you may be able to find some help.
Here's some information on where to start looking.
