The Winston Solicitors team once again took part in theLeeds MencapApprentice Challenge. Taking an initial loan of £50, each team was challenged to raise as much as possible for the Leeds charity over a six week period.

For Winston Solicitors, it was a firm wide effort with the catchphrase 'divide and conquer’, which clearly worked given our winning status!

We kicked off the fundraising period with a Cake For Cash day closely followed by a raffle. To really hot up the raffle sales, Jonathan incentivised staff with an extra day’s holiday for the most tickets sold. Laura Hitchen was the proud winner by selling a grand total of 113 to her family and friends.

Ourannual quiznight brought almost 100 people together to enjoy Paul’s eclectic quiz questions and bonus prizes.

After presenting the final cheque to Leeds Mencap for £1642.10 we were delighted to be presented with the winning trophy in return. Obviously it is the fundraising and taking part that counts, but we do like a ‘win win’ situation!

Client feedback

I really appreciated my solicitor, Keertan. They were very patient, helpful and compassionate despite my own issues with sending ID off. I ended up sorting out my ID, and everything worked out. Thank you!!

Olivia and the team at Winston Solicitors were really helpful and supportive every step of the way to buying my first home. I found their online portal super helpful to see what still needed to be done and understand each step of the process.
Samantha

The conveyancing team, led by Samantha Robertson-Strong have been excellent in guiding us through both the sale and purchase of our houses. Always communicative and happy to explain aspects of the process. Highly recommend.

Amanda and the entire Winston Solicitors team were exceptional from start-to-finish. As our 'point person' on my father's personal injury case (and not being in any way legally minded ourselves), Amanda guided us effortlessly through the requirements, evidence & documentation needed along the way, and timelines with different possible outcomes (never overstated, just refresgingly honest). My dad (at the time 88 but by settlement approaching 90) was kept in the loop at all times, able to make decisions for himself due to the professionalism and care of Amanda.Would highly recommend Amanda and the Winston team - really impressed.

Olivia Cooke and her team provided an excellent service throughout our property sale. The team were efficient, clear, and kept us well informed at every stage. The conveyancing process was handled smoothly and professionally. Highly recommended Winston Solicitors. We were particularly impressed with our conveyancing assistant, Amanda Lester, who kept us updated and made the process a great experience!
