SLegally it is the same. A 138 NI case can be registered against OP whether the cheque bounces or he stops payment.SThat’s not always true. The existence of a signed cheque constitutes presumption of a legally enforceable debt. There are various case laws on this and the law related to 138 NI is very clear. OP will have a very difficult battle if he submits that cheque and it bounces. Please don’t give bad advice.SHi OP, it’s hard to recommend lawyers based on the sheer number of cases filed/argued. We don’t really have a system like the US either, where lawyers keep track of the cases won or lost. The lawyers with the most number of cases filed/argued aren’t always the best lawyers, they could just be really good at selling themselves, which is different from being a good lawyer, or they could get a lot of cases from their parents/relatives, if they were lawyers, too. Most of what you’d find will likely be hearsay.SBut he hasn’t said anywhere that he’s advertising the services of lawyers. He said people approach him, and he recommends lawyers based on their experience. That’s different from advertising/soliciting/any other bar on lawyers. If he was recommending only one lawyer for every single person who approached him, that might be a violation of the Advocate’s Act. But this, to me, seems fine.SHi, I’m a lawyer, but not your lawyer, so please take advice from a lawyer who has seen all the relevant documents too.
Look up easement rights in your property. File a petition in your local court to enforce those rights. Make sure you file certified copies of all original property documents so that you can sheets reference those documents later, if required (since you say they might tamper with records). If the petition is dismissed for no good legal reason, such as if they bribe a judge, appeal in your state’s high court. Also make sure you ask that they be restricted from blocking your access to the land.
