On 3 December 2014, the Government announced changes to Stamp Duty Land Tax on residential properties. The tax is now graduated rather than a flat rate. Buyers will make a saving or pay the same if the price is £937,500 or less. The Government believes that 98% of buyers will make a saving.

Client feedback

Winston’s were well reviewed when I was searching for a solicitors to use for my first house purchase. As a first time buyer I had little knowledge of the process but Michelle at Winston’s was excellent and helped me through every step of the way. I would highly recommend Winston’s to anyone looking for solicitors for a house move!

Michelle was brilliant. During a time that can be stressful (buying a house), Michelle continually kept me updated, she responded to any emails very quickly and was very thorough. I’d highly recommend Michelle I will definitely be using Winston Solicitors again.

I dealt with Emily regarding my will; she was professional and a pleasure to work with.

My husband and I finally got around to having wills written via the charity scheme (St Gemma's). Emily was great at talking us through the options, answering our queries and setting this up professionally, personably and in a timely manner. I would recommend Winstones to others and would use them again for any legal work we may require in the future.

My situation is fairly straightforward with a couple of areas on which I needed a bit of advice. The solicitor was very helpful at explaining the possible options. The process was thorough and executed in a timely way.
