Dina Parmar

Why did you choose the law?

I chose to become a Lawyer because I love both the adrenaline of completing deals and working with people – so it’s a great combination for me.

Tell us a bit about how you got here…

I took a slightly different route into law and completed a combined Business and Law degree majoring in Business which I subsequently converted into a full law degree by completing the GDL. I completed my training contract at a law firm in the Three Counties, qualifying into the Commercial Property department and remained there for 9 years, prior to joining Band Hatton Button.

What does your day job look like?

Two days are never the same! I’m really passionate about client service so I do spend a lot of time communicating with clients and managing their expectations.

I have wide ranging experience of all matters relating to Commercial Property and some of the more common that I come across day-to-day include:

Landlord and Tenant matters such as drafting and negotiating leases and ancillary documentation;
Acting for occupiers and investors in the acquisition, management and disposal of properties both commercial and residential;
Property development;
Acting for lenders in perfecting security;
Providing corporate support to the Corporate department assisting with the sales, purchases and mergers; and Property aspects relating to Healthcare.

Unusually for a Commercial Property Lawyer I also specialise in Leasehold Enfranchisement matters acting for both Landlords and Tenants, I have over 7 years’ experience and work closely with surveyors to ensure that what could be a largely complicated matter is dealt with as smoothly as possible.

What Do You Like to Do Outside of Work?

I absolutely love travelling and seeing the world, I believe life is too short to visit the same place twice! I also read a lot and enjoy keeping fit – I’m a really keen runner and attend the gym daily.

I’m an avid Leicester City fan and generally spend my weekends keeping up to date with the football scores!

I am also one of the firm’s nominated members of the Rotary Club of Kenilworth and have been actively involved with attending their meetings and fundraising for the Club.

I was delighted to be named Lawyer of the Year at the annual Warwickshire Law Society Awards in 2021.

“Thank you for your positive support through this unnecessarily long drawn out process, which has now reached a satisfactory conclusion.

So everyone is happy!”
