Hi Mina,
There is nothing that I am aware of but members might know of someone from their own experience.

If this is in connection with a Social Security Benefit or Housing Benefit then a solicitor may not be the best person to represent you, benefit law is a specialist area and most solicitors have no experience in this area, if you do use one, please make sure that you ask for references of benefit claims that they have successfully acted as representative for.
As an alternative do an internet search for "welfare advice" with your postcode or area of London.

It may be worth adding to what Gordon has said, that even solicitors that claim to deal or specialize in benefits have often completed a one day course in benefits, and would not have the training or experience of welfare rights workers who really do specialize in benefits.
If they deal with other legal issues, those issues are most likely to be their specialty.

You should certainly get legal advice in regard an IUC, but my comments stand in regard to anything specifically to do with the benefits you are receiving.
