Have had two house sales through Winston’s. Julie and Leasa have been brilliant and would only use them (Winston’s) for future work. Thank you.

Leasa and Julie were incredible

My partner and I recently bought our first house, and used Winston as our conveyance solicitors. From the first quote (which was very reasonable), the whole process was explained to us, and we were kept up to date with emails, the InTouch app, and phone calls. Leasa is professional and attentive and made sure we understood what was happening, and ensured the vendor's side was providing the necessary material. We're so grateful to have dealt with Leasa and Julia at Winston, and I'd recommend to anyone - Thank you!

Monika helped deal with my father's probate. She spent the time explaining what was needed to be done, was very caring during the process and I would not hesitate to recommend her.

Excellent experience

Had an excellent experience with Winston Solicitors - as a first time buyer I was unsure of how it works, but everything was explained very clearly through every stage of the process. My solicitor was responsive and thorough. Highly recommended. Sidraa's communication was excellent and she dealt with everything that came up during the purchase quickly and thoroughly.

Highly Recommend

Would highly recommend Winston, they were amazing at communicating and explaining everything to me so I knew step by step what was going on. They kept me updated regularly and were overall very helpful, especially Sidraa. I will only use these going forward. Sidraa was super helpful throughout the whole process, she'd reply to me daily (which is very rare for some solicitors) and would call me if there was anything a little more complex to explain to me.

Leasa was very thorough and efficient with the whole process. Buying a house can be quite overwhelming but she made sure I understood everything. She responds very quickly and ensured everything is smooth. Will definitely use Winston solicitors again in the future.

Amazing

They were amazing from start to finish! Communication in particular was outstanding, never waiting longer than an hour (usually far less) for responses to queries. They were so thorough, I wouldn't hesitate to use them again, and have recommended to family and friends already. Clearly amazing at what she does. We felt like our sale and purchase were in great hands!

I recently had the pleasure of working with Wendy from Winston’s Solicitors in Leeds on a family law matter, and I cannot recommend her highly enough. From our first consultation, Wendy was incredibly professional, empathetic, and thorough in her approach. She took the time to fully understand my situation, providing clear and concise advice at every step of the process.

Throughout the entire case, Wendy was always available to answer any questions I had, and she made sure I felt supported and informed. Her knowledge of family law is exceptional, and I felt confident in her ability to handle my case. She was transparent about all costs, keeping me informed of any developments along the way.

What truly stood out to me was her attention to detail and her ability to navigate what was a very emotionally charged situation with sensitivity and care. Wendy was not only a skilled professional but also genuinely understanding of the emotional impact of my case, which made a huge difference during a stressful time.

Thanks to Wendy’s hard work and dedication, I was able to reach a favorable outcome, and I am incredibly grateful for her support. If you are looking for a compassionate and experienced family law solicitor, I would wholeheartedly recommend Wendy at Winston’s.

I cannot praise Winston solicitors enough for their exceptional handling of my recent property sale and purchase. From start to finish, their professionalism, expertise, and attention to detail were nothing short of outstanding.

They were consistently on top of every aspect of the process, providing timely updates, clear communication, and proactive advice at every stage. Their ability to anticipate potential issues and address them swiftly was truly impressive and made what could have been a stressful experience feel seamless and well-managed.

Their dedication and commitment to ensuring everything progressed smoothly was evident throughout. They went above and beyond to meet deadlines, liaising effectively with all parties involved and providing me with complete confidence and peace of mind.

If you are looking for a reliable, knowledgeable, and highly responsive legal team to handle your property transactions, I would not hesitate to recommend them. Absolutely first-class service from Leasa and Julie !!

We had an excellent experience with our solicitors during our first house purchase in Manchester, while we were based in Sheffield and our solicitor, Leasa, was in Leeds, and it worked perfectly. The InTouch app made tracking progress easy, and communication was always clear and timely. Leasa Foster was incredibly knowledgeable, responsive, and patient, guiding us through every step, even in a complex chain. As foreigners, we had many questions, and they provided outstanding support. Overall, the service was top-notch, on time, and to a very high standard. Highly recommended!

I am very thankful to Winston solicitors for helping me complete on my sale and purchase in just a couple of months. Communication was frequent, and I could always get hold of them when I needed to. The InTouch app was a brilliant feature for me to be able to track the sale.

When the solicitor I was assigned went off unexpectedly, my case was still dealt with efficiently. Amanda and Joe were particularly good at keeping things moving, and keeping me in the loop, and I’m very thankful to these two for chasing and getting the sale through so quickly.

I would recommend using Winston’s, and would use them again myself in the future.
