About us

Serving the Hunter Valley for over 130 years

Hills Solicitors opened its doors in September 1894. Three offices later — all within a 50 metre walk of the first — we are still on High Street, and still a family practice.

What we stand for

Our core values

  • Professional

    Our solicitors are experienced and professional, and approach every matter — big or small — with the same level of care.

  • Reliable

    Whether it is big or small, we will always be here when you need us.

  • Dedicated

    We owe our longevity to our wonderful clients. Since 1894 we have been dedicated to our client family.

Since 1894

We are dedicated to serving our community and the greater Hunter and Newcastle region. We owe our longevity to the wonderful people and businesses of the region, and we continue to provide all our clients with the same experienced legal advice — practical solutions, at an affordable price.

Hills Solicitors first opened its doors in September of 1894 under the name T A Hill. We continued strengthening our roots in the Maitland community and later became T A Hill & Son, when our founder's son joined the family practice. We then made the change to Hills Solicitors.

We are a member of the Law Society of New South Wales and a PEXA member, and we are here to help you when you need us. Get in touch to talk about your matter.
