Not a solicitor, but as mentioned by a previous poster since this would be a civil claim. You don't need to prove everything absolutely.
Why not gather statements and collect evidence where possible.
With enough circumstantial evidence and statements you might be able to persuade a court that your current troubles didn't start overnight when you moved in.
I'm not 100% clear between the relationship between your solicitor and insurance. But from my experience of working in the insurance industry, that insurers normally only ever pay out on legal cover when they have a 100% winnable case.
So it could be your solicitor is being extremely conservative in his approach to your case.0
