Hi I'm a Disability Benefit Lawyer and set up and run Fightback4justice a non profit community interest group that offers free initial advice and professional advocacy in DLA, pip and ESA appeals and other disability related matters. We have a free adviceline and drop in sessions and cover the whole of the UK with this. We are unfunded by grants etc so if you instruct us to advocate in person then there are basic travel/admin costs as we are mostly run by professional volunteers.
We attend the pip forum in London, liaise with tribunal daily and DWP and see changes as they occur. Find us on Facebook @fightback or ring 01716727444 for free phone advice. As an ex CAb benefit lawyer we know exactly the best way to apply or transfer over to PIP and have an excellent 89% success rate in court to date.

Username_removed said:Worth noting that the word lawyer implies a currently practising solicitor and infers a higher level of knowledge than perhaps someone working for example as a volunteer in Citizens Advice but, in the UK, the word is largely meaningless with all due respect to the OP. Easy enough to check the solicitors register to see if sometime is a practising solicitor.
One becomes aware from time to time of organisations who charge erroneously claiming free advice is no longer available in an area in order to secure business. HMCTS also alert when reps pass themselves off as being from other organisations (sadly it has happened). There’s more than enough case work to go round forever more but people on fixed incomes should at least be very clear whether high quality free advice is available in their area before choosing to pay. Obviously in some areas that may not be practical and there’s a meaningful gap which paid advice may be the only way to bridge.
Finally most advice organisations make no claims about success rates as high success rates can imply that an organisation is cherry picking only the cases most likely to win. It impresses some people but is not the best or only measure of quality.
You pays your money you takes your choice, so to speak.
ants but i also googled the address and looked on google earth at the building it was correct but i also agree there are plenty out there taking cash for advice or claiming exsperts

Presumably they are working under that name for convenience purposes thus hiding their true identity.

There are no guarantees.
