I honestly can't recommend Winston Solicitors enough. I reached out to them when I was in need of employment law advice and received a call from Samira. She was friendly and gave me some advice when my world had been turned upside down. Samira handled my negotiation for me, along with her excellent colleague Dervinder. They made me feel comfortable, stood up for me and my rights, and negotiated a great package. I would wholeheartedly recommend them and would not hesitate to contact Winston Solicitors if I ever need legal help again.

Tagged solicitor Roy Magara
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I cannot thank Roy and Esther enough for their support and professionalism throughout what has been a very difficult 16 months. From preparing my case and working through the evidence to negotiating a settlement, they were there to guide me through every stage of the process. Roy provided clear advice and guidance, while Esther was always helpful, responsive and supportive throughout. The whole process was stressful at times, but having them in my corner made a real difference. I’m grateful for the time, effort and dedication they put into helping me reach a resolution. Thank you both for everything you have done for me. I would happily recommend Roy and Esther to anyone needing support with an employment dispute.

Tagged solicitor Alexandra Goldrein
I came to Slater Heelies after a disaster with previous solicitor. Alex from the onset was friendly, reassuring, professional but firm. Many times she had to challenge my perspectives and encouraged strength. Alex had an objective approach and was always quick and prompt in replying to emails and calls. Her in depth knowledge was reassuring and was able to relay in a succinct manner that was easy to digest. I felt with Alex’s friendly manner that she always had my best interests at the heart and was extremely reassuring during the whole process which was really appreciated. I would have no hesitation in using her again… but at the same time hope that there would never be a need. Thank you

The support from WGA was perfect from start to finish. While the process was progressed without too many issues, Chris Dewey was available to offer explanation and advice to allow the process to move forward quickly and without issue.

Tagged solicitor Gareth Roberts
Gareth demonstrated exceptional responsiveness from the outset. After I contacted him late one evening, he arranged a call for the following morning and provided tailored, reassuring advice during a period that was both new and unsettling for me due to my recent redundancy. He remained attentive at every stage through to the signing of the agreement and supported me in securing a positive outcome. I would be pleased to engage his services again and recommend him without hesitation.
