Sabina Rinker

"Thank you Sabina for everything you have done for me over the past 10 weeks or so. Your support, particularly by acting as a go between, goes beyond what one could reasonably expect in the solicitor-client relationship. My mental and physical well being is improving day by day and I’m sure that’s because I no longer have to deal with [my opponent]face to face." - former client

Since qualifying in 1994 Sabina has developed a specialist commercial litigation practice addressing the needs of businesses and entrepreneurs facing challenging and time critical issues. Specific areas of expertise include: shareholder and partnership disputes and preference and wrongful trading claims, resolving disputes about Solicitors’ costs and professional negligence.  She has successfully defended proceedings brought by BERR to wind up companies in the public interest and/or disqualify directors as being unfit to manage and recovered the costs of those proceedings from the Department.

Sabina undertakes a significant amount of regulatory work assisting clients in complying with the ever increasing body of regulations that affect them.  She advises where investigations are being undertaken and defends proceedings before the Solicitors Disciplinary Tribunal.  Her practice has particular emphasis on:

●  mortgage fraud

●  professional indemnity insurance

●  legal issues arising from LLPs and their members.

She is a Panel member of the Solicitors Assistance Scheme.
