Hello
I know you don't normally deal with these but maybe you can help me.
After a claim for deterioration I have had my WP upped from 20% to 30%.
Since then I have found a report from a second tier tribunal about an appellant who basically has exactly the same ailments and injuries as me but is in receipt of a 40% WP this is not in contention.His award is from the time he was diagnosed with said ailments,mine has taken over 20 years to reach this point.
My question is will I be able to use the tribunal case as a reference for me if I appeal the decision and If my award was changed would I be able to backdate it to when I was first diagnosed.

There shouldn't be a problem with your using the Decision, but you will need to show that your circumstances are the same.
