School pupils show their business flair

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.

Review for Wendy – Family Law Services at Winston’s Solicitors, LeedsI 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 Solicitors.

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.

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. More to the point I knew we were in good safe hands. 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 Leasa and her team at Winston Solicitors who gave me and absolutely first-class service!
