Moving From DLA To PIP Ronny Crasco

A large proportion of our pro bono clients will at some stage seek disability benefits to fill the hole in their finances created by not being able to work due to serious injury. The main disability benefits they will be applying for are Personal Independence Payments (PIP), Disability Living Allowance (DLA), and Contributory Employment and Support Allowance (ESA). This book mainly focuses on PIP, but the principles apply to all of these benefits.
Applications for disability benefits can be onerous and we deal with a large number of clients who have had their applications refused or their award has been lower than expected.
