Winston Solicitors welcomed the opportunity to work with Cardinal Heenan High School, in Leeds 6, during a project involving imagination, creativity and business flair.

A ‘Dragon’s Den’ style forum was set up with the Year 10’s working on their projects in five teams of 16. Each team had two hours come up with a business idea with a prototype, work out costings and prepare their presentation. Spokespersons for each team presented their idea to a panel of judges who included Miles Mount from LEAP, Christine Marsden from Education Leeds and from Winston Solicitors Jonathan Winston and Francis O’Neill.

Having listened to all the business ideas the panel then chose the most worthy winner.

“I was looking for a team that presented an interesting plan, but I also wanted to see enthusiasm and belief in themselves.” said Jonathan Winston. “It was great fun and hopefully the teams were able to work on a project that motivated them and enabled them to be work as part of a team.”

Jonathan and Francis from Winston Solicitors then presented personal calculators to each member of the winning team.

I found Amanda very easy to deal with, she kept me in the loop and informed throughout the process, spoke in a language I understood and didn’t overpromise. She’s very professional, happy to answer questions, always courteous and knowledgeable.

Michelle was our conveyancer for our recent house purchase. Her professionalism, thoroughness and quick responses throughout the process made the purchase as easy as possible for us - we are very grateful to her and the rest of the team at Winston Solicitors for their work.

had a great experience with winston solicitor company. The team was professional, friendly, and helpful throughout the whole process. Joe Rawnsley was fantastic. He kept me informed, answered all my questions, and made everything straightforward and stress-free.

I have now used Winston’s for a number of services and highly rate them all round. My most recent experience was of their conveyancing team who have again been helpful from start to finish with the sale of my previous property and new purchase. The new purchase was not straight forward but Winston’s managed this extremely well with even the estate agent noting how helpful they were. I’m very appreciative to Michelle for her all her help with this
