Hi letitia
So sorry to hear about your situation. If you are still a member of a trade union/professional association you could try asking if they will provide you with access to legal advice from a welfare benefits solicitor. Likewise if you have home insurance check to see if it offers legal advice, most providers do, ask if it will provide you with access to legal advice from a welfare benefits solicitor.
Some universities with law courses sometimes offer free community legal advice & representation giving their students 'real-life' experiences. Whilst it is the law student who represents the client, the research & presentation is always under the direct supervision of the lecturer.
Just always check out that whoever may advise &/or represent you is, or in the case of a law student their supervising lecturer, is experienced in the field of welfare benefits as an inexperienced solictor is generally worse than you representing yourself.
Good luck - I so hope you find someone who will fight your case.

I'm not sure if members are aware, but this thread has been running for over a year.
It would be much better if the latest poster started a new thread, which will then allow
us to lock this thread and start afresh.
Have a nice weekend.
