Supporting the community

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.

Winston Solicitors was recommended to me, as this was my first time buying a house and didn’t know what to expect. They made the process very easy and I did not have to worry about any of the process as I got to track it every step of the way. Samantha also kept me updated and any queries were replied to promptly. I will definitely be using again in the future and recommend everyone I know.
Mr Michel
I can’t speak highly enough of Sidraa at Winston Solicitors for her exceptional support throughout my house purchase. From start to finish, she has been absolutely brilliant. Her prompt responses, attention to detail, and professionalism made a stressful process feel manageable and smooth. This is actually the second time I’ve used Winston Solicitors, and once again, they have been great. Consistent, reliable, and professional and Sidraa in particular truly went above and beyond. She was always kind, polite, and incredibly approachable, nothing ever felt like too much trouble. Even when dealing with a particularly difficult chain and the added pressure of a new stamp duty deadline, she worked tirelessly to get everything done on time. She responded to queries even out of hours, always called back when she said she would, and genuinely made me feel like a priority. What really stood out to me was her dedication — despite having preplanned annual leave for Eid, she still tried to keep things moving, which shows how committed she is to her clients. Her communication was clear and consistent, and she made a complex process feel a lot less daunting. I felt fully supported and in safe hands throughout. If you're looking for a solicitor who is professional, caring, and truly exceptional at what she does, Sidraa at Winston Solicitors is the one to go to. I’m incredibly grateful for everything she did and wouldn’t hesitate to work with her again or recommend her to others. - April 2025
