Your entitlement to Benefits

The rules about the benefits to which you may be entitled as a result of your accident or injury are complicated. You should get the leaflets produced by the Benefits Agency about each of the benefits.
The main leaflets are:

SD2: sick & unable to work;
SD3: long term ill or disabled;
SD6, SD 7, & SD8: industrial injuries disablement benefit;
IB1: incapacity benefit;
GL23: Benefit rates.

We can advise you about benefits, or refer you for more specialist advice, at the same time as advising you about a claim against the person or company responsible for your injury or disease.
