We are extending our ‘civil claim fix service’ which is available to providers who feel we have made an incorrect decision to reject a claim.

The service covers claims in the following areas:

• certificated bills
• Family Advocacy Scheme
• legal help escape cases

Providers can now also ask our civil claim fix team to review a reject decision if there is a request for a document they believe has already been supplied.

Guidance on our requirements can be found in the claim checklists and the electronic handbook.
