We asked the 40+ team to see how much, what and where we all support and use our local community.

Winston Solicitors supporting our local community

Fun facts and interesting stats* that surfaced following a staff questionnaire. The Winston Solicitors head office is located on Street Lane in Roundhay, which is a busy hub with a vibrant community.

This is what we uncovered about the Winston Solicitors team:

  1. There are 20 pets between us and a few dogs have been known to visit the office!
  2. From 1 years upwards, we have 45 children who go to 12 different local schools. We are fortunate to provide flexible working for families including accommodating sports day, school plays and the important transition moments.
  3. A good work life balance is encouraged which shows with our 55 different hobbies that range from swimming to netball and chess to amateur dramatics! Clearly we’re an active bunch who like a touch of competition.
  4. When asked about which charities we all support and the number was staggering as the team are involved with over 120 different charities which translates to having personally given over £30,000 to those charities.
  5. We volunteer in over 25 different ways from marshalling at Park Runs to holding positions on charity committee’s plus helping at school PTA’s and being a brownie leader.

*All the facts are based on anonymised staff data.

Client feedback

Recently I have used the services of Winston Solicitors to deal with my wife's estate and to update my will. In both cases everything was explained in straightforward language and so was easy to understand. Things were dealt with promptly and I was always kept informed of progress. The friendly approach of members of the team made a difficult situation much easier to deal with. My family will certainly seek the services of Winstons when required in the future.

Amazing service from start to finish, Our questions were answered quickly and there were no holds up from our side of the house sale what so ever. Would 100% recommend and use in the future. Special thank you to Samantha & Aishah.

We were really impressed with the service that we received from both Leasa and Julie. The process was efficient, communication was great and we liked the online portal where you could see the progress of the sale/purchase easily. Despite some delays from our buyer’s solicitor, both Leasa and Julie seemed to push this daily for us to complete on time. We would recommend Winston’s to others and will use them in the future if we move again!

Used Leasa Foster for the sale and purchase of my house after being really pleased with her service from a previous purchase. She is very thorough and also very quick to reply whenever I contact her. I have recommended her to many family and friends over the years and everyone has been really pleased with the service. Highly recommend!
