More than 100 people attended the launch of Hine Solicitors at the Ashmolean Museum.

Department heads, solicitors and trainees mingled with guests including heads of local schools, accountants, estate agents, bankers and business people.

Senior Partner Tony Hine said “The evening was a great success and I am absolutely thrilled by the number of people who are clearly eager to welcome us into their community."

Hine Solicitors opened its new Summertown office in February. The company is well-established in Buckinghamshire with offices in Beaconsfield, Gerrards Cross and Chesham.

The firm covers a broad range of practice areas including family and divorce, wills and probate, property, civil litigation, motoring offences and crime and fraud.
