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

We worked with Leasa at Winston Solicitors for our house move and she was absolutely amazing from start to finish. She really went the extra mile for us! Her communication was impeccable, she was friendly, knowledgeable, and assertive when needed. When the chain became difficult and the completion date was at risk, Leasa went above and beyond to make sure everyone got over the finish line. You always hear horror stories about slow or unhelpful solicitors, but Leasa was a complete breath of fresh air. The whole process felt smooth and well-handled thanks to her. Couldn’t recommend her highly enough!

We would fully recommend going with Winston Solicitors for your next purchase and/or sale. Sidraa and Tom were outstanding throughout and kept us informed at every stage. They were very professional, knowledgeable and easy to contact. We will definitely use them again should we ever look to move house.

My Will was written during Wills Month via St Gemma's Hospice. The service was quick and efficient. I have only given 4 stars as there was an error in the original draft.
