Welfare benefits advice and casework

Birmingham Law Centre is a specialist-level provider of welfare benefits advice on behalf of the Community Legal Service. We can offer:

Benefit checks and 'better-off' calculations, clearly explaining the consequences of changes in circumstances.

Help with applications for benefits.

Advice and assistance on appeals including representation at tribunals where appropriate.

Assistance with your redress where the authorities are delaying or where there is maladministration.

In appropriate cases we may be able to provide legal representation to bring cases before the Social Security Commissioners, the High Court or the Court of Appeal
