Neil Bateman LLB, Dip SA, CQSW, Dip MS, MEWI
I specialise in welfare rights and social policy issues - solving benefit problems. On this website you can find out about my consultancy services, training courses and my publications.
I have over 30 years experience of welfare rights work – as a front-line adviser as well as an advocate, trainer, author, strategic manager and policy adviser. I have represented claimants at all levels of the social security appellate system and have also been involved in judicial reviews of social security and related matters. I am also very experienced in carrying out quality audits of and developing strategies for social welfare law advice services.
I am working towards becoming a greener business – recycling all waste, using recycled products, using energy-efficient appliances, electricity from non-carbon sources and minimising my use of cars and planes.
