Giving someone money to get something which one is rightfully entitled to

Q: Is it permissible to give money to someone in order to get something to which you are rightfully entitled to but can't get it due to all the corruption in the system? I have tried all the straight means but always hit a dead end.

A: Yes. The sin is on the person who is not giving you your right.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
