Winston Solicitors reviews

A much more pleasant experience than I expected. It was like having a conversation with a friend who had my best interests at heart. Every effort was made to bring the matter to a most satisfactory conclusion. I would highly recommend Winston Solicitors.

Really helpful and friendly service. We wouldn't have been able to work through the Will and Powers of Attorney process without the guidance of the staff. We feel happy that we now have plans and security for our future.

Excellent service and very fast in turning things round. I have employed several legal firms in the past, but Jonathan and his team are certainly in the top 2-3. First Class

We used Winston Solicitors to make our Wills. We found Wendy Scarr very approachable and highly professional in her approach. The work was completed in a timely manner and was worth the fee charged. We would have no hesitation in recommending them.
