Hi An education advice charity told me that my daughter at 16 should lodge the appeal to sendist in her name and as such as no income small savings should be entitled to legal aid in her name. They did say might have difficulties when calling the legal aid assessment line who would say it is parents means. Sure enough advisor said it was our means not hers. I then called a firm of solicitors who do education law legal aid and they said if that is what Legal Aid have said then they are in control and we can't help. Is this correct? If my D has capacity and is 16 and therefore appeal is on her name why is it our means? With judicial review as it's in child's name it's based on child's means as far as I'm aware. Isn't this the same?
