The longer it goes unresolved, the harder it usually becomes to recover in full, and unpaid debts can put real pressure on your finances or your business at exactly the time you can least afford it.
At Hine Solicitors, we act for individuals and businesses looking to recover what they are owed, taking swift, practical steps from the outset with a view to getting you paid. We give you a clear view of your options and the realistic costs involved at each stage before we take any action on your behalf.
Not every unpaid debt needs to end up in court. We assess what is realistically achievable before advising on the best way forward, whether that is a payment plan or formal action. Where a debtor simply will not engage, or has been avoiding contact, we move things on to more formal steps without unnecessary delay.
We can help at every stage of the process, from sending a formal letter of claim through to finding out more about your debtor’s circumstances so we know the most effective way to proceed. Where court action is the right route, we can issue proceedings, obtain a county court judgment and then enforce it where possible.
The sooner you act on an unpaid debt, the greater your chances of recovering it in full. Delay can give a debtor time to dispose of assets, spend the money elsewhere or run up other debts, all of which make recovery harder. Getting advice at the first sign of a problem generally leads to a better outcome.
For businesses, unpaid invoices can be a heavy drain on cash flow and on time and attention that would otherwise go into running the business. We act quickly on your behalf, using court proceedings where necessary to maximise your chances of recovering what is rightfully yours and protecting your position as a creditor throughout.

Thank you for a brilliant result.
I’d like to thank you for seeing the court hearing through. A terrific piece of work!
You have been a tremendous support and a highly efficient lawyer to say the least. Full of empathy and dealt with every little detail perfectly to share the burden equally.
I just wanted to take this opportunity to say thank you so much for your professionalism, hard work, and your patience afforded to me through my difficult times. Your support and kindness I shall always remember with gratitude.
