Winston Solicitors welcomed the opportunity to work with Cardinal Heenan High School, in Leeds 6, during a project involving imagination, creativity and business flair.

A ‘Dragon’s Den’ style forum was set up with the Year 10’s working on their projects in five teams of 16. Each team had two hours come up with a business idea with a prototype, work out costings and prepare their presentation. Spokespersons for each team presented their idea to a panel of judges who included Miles Mount from LEAP, Christine Marsden from Education Leeds and from Winston Solicitors Jonathan Winston and Francis O’Neill.

Having listened to all the business ideas the panel then chose the most worthy winner.

“I was looking for a team that presented an interesting plan, but I also wanted to see enthusiasm and belief in themselves.” said Jonathan Winston. “It was great fun and hopefully the teams were able to work on a project that motivated them and enabled them to be work as part of a team.”

Jonathan and Francis from Winston Solicitors then presented personal calculators to each member of the winning team.

Client feedback

Monika made the whole Wil process very simple & was more than happy to explain any concerns we had.
Jane
was a CIACA case, great service, professional, kept informed all the way
Faris
I found Sidraa to be very thorough, proactively raising questions about the conveyance even before I had asked her myself. All communication was clear and regular updates provided, which was very helpful.It was a stressful process (what house move isn’t!)due to an issue dragging on, no fault on the Solicitors’ part but meant exchange and completion in quick succession! Ultimately, Sidraa and Tom worked very hard to achieve the completion date everyone wanted so thank you 🙏

Emily was a very patient and supportive lady, as we were not very clued in to dealing with some of the internet issues and she guided us through it.Emily made altering our wills a breeze, would use this firm Winston solicitors 100 percent for all our business.
Tina
Leasa and the team at Winston solicitors have been really good. Leasa was very thorough in her work helping me with my house purchase. I can highly recommend her and Winston solicitors for conveyancing.
Maria
Winston Solicitors are the best solicitor firm I have dealt with. They helped sell my house. Sidraa and Tom were always communicating with me and turned things round quickly when I was going out of the country. I would definitely use them again and that’s not the case usually with solicitor firms.
Rob
I received a welcoming and efficient service from Monika at Winston’s. A lovely, friendly lady that was very professional at the same time. I would use Winston’s again.

Initially the person that was allocated to me was not very good and I didn’t get any compensation but when I changed the person and pushed for review to look at again I was able to get the compensation awarded. It did take time nearly 2 years.
