Hi,You don't need a solictor to claim any benefits. Before doing anything are you claiming any means tested benefits? If do then IIDB will affect those and reduce them £1 for £1 so it may not be worth you even claiming it. https://www.citizensadvice.org.uk/benefits/sick-or-disabled-people-and-carers/getting-benefits-if-you-got-ill-or-were-injured-at-work/For expert advice start here. https://advicelocal.uk/
