At Hine Solicitors we can advise you whether you are an owner occupier, a landlord, a tenant or a neighbour. We look to resolve things through negotiation or mediation where appropriate, and if a case has to go to court we will be with you throughout, weighing up the commercial realities alongside the legal position.
Disputes over where one property ends and another begins can be difficult to live with, and can affect far more than your finances. We help resolve boundary disputes using the deeds, plans and any other evidence available, so that both sides can move on. We also advise on rights of way and other land related disputes between neighbours.
As more people rent rather than buy, landlord and tenant disputes have become more common. We act for landlords in claims for possession and unpaid rent. We can also advise tenants who do not qualify for legal aid. Whether you are a tenant dealing with a landlord who will not carry out repairs, or a landlord facing unpaid rent or damage to a property, we advise on possession claims, evictions, unpaid rent, damage and disputes over deposits and deposit protection, for both residential and commercial tenancies.
The law of adverse possession can allow someone who has been in unauthorised occupation of land for a number of years to acquire ownership of it. Whether you are considering making a claim or defending one brought against you, acting quickly matters. We can assist with the process and advise on your prospects of success.
Unmarried couples or others who occupy a home together, with or without a written agreement, can face real difficulties if the relationship ends. The law in this area is complex but we can advise you on your options and what is realistically achievable.

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.
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.
