About this score
This rating is based on verified client feedback and compares how this firm’s value for money is perceived against the national average. In legal services, value for money is not about being the cheapest option, but about whether clients feel the service, expertise, and outcome justified the cost. This comparison helps place client experiences in context when choosing a law firm.

About this score
This rating is based on client feedback and compares how satisfied people were with the result of their legal matter against the national average for similar legal services. While every case is different and outcomes can depend on the law, the facts, and decisions made by courts or tribunals, this comparison is designed to be like for like.
When a firm has a large number of reviews, individual case differences tend to balance out over time. This makes the national average a useful benchmark for understanding how often clients feel the result achieved was fair and appropriate for their situation. Even small differences from the average can therefore reflect a meaningful difference in the overall standard of legal service provided.

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.

Sidraa
I have just dealt with Sidraa Razaq at Winston's and am happy to tell the world how wonderful she is and how simple the process has been (for me at any rate!). So easy to deal with, professional, always quick to respond and also to understand as everything is explained properly. I have been most impressed with how incredibly thorough they are at Winston's. I know this because I have compared what Sidraa / Winston's offer to what friends have experienced with other solicitors. The process was easy to follow using their IN TOUCH software, which is completely user friendly and was checked frequently. It is well designed with clear step by step headers (and idiot proof explanations ) and I always had complete peace of mind that they were on top of everything. I have returned to Winston's because of Sidraa and have sung Sidraa's praises every time a friend is wanting to instruct a solicitor. I would not use anyone else. Sidraa is helpful, easy to deal with, quick to respond, professional and also human - which is important when you are doing something as important and stressful and buying a property. Once I know Sidraa is in my corner - I know everything will be sorted. Everybody buying or selling a property should have a Sidraa in their corner. I wouldn't be without one!!

Outstanding from Start to finish. Friendly, professional and reliable. Sidraa is hands down the best solicitor I have ever experienced. She went above and beyond to ensure everything was done on time and to help try to speed the process along when other parties were slow. She explained everything clearly and was so friendly.

Fantastic service from Sidraa at Winston Solicitors for our sale and purchase. They are competitively priced and Sidraa completed everything in a very timely manner, she was super responsive, and very thorough. Highly recommended. Sidraa is a credit to Winston Solicitors. She was very professional, diligent, friendly, and responsive throughout the whole process of our sale and purchase, going above and beyond to provide great service.

Sidraa, who oversaw our conveyancing, was superb, as was Paulo our paralegal. The whole process was clearly communicated, efficient from start to finish, and straightforward. I never normally leave reviews but Winston thoroughly deserve their five stars - I recommend them to anyone.

When Sidra was recommended to us as a switched‑on, professional solicitor, we honestly thought we’d have to see it to believe it. I must say, she exceeded every expectation. Not only is she highly competent, she is also incredibly empathetic and genuinely caring. We had a rough ride with our buyers, and Sidra held our hand throughout the entire process — consistently chasing things up, keeping us updated, replying to emails even late at night, and reassuring us when everything felt touch‑and‑go. Thanks to her honest, calm and supportive approach, our sale completed successfully. My husband and I can finally sleep in peace. Sidra is a real credit to Winston Solicitors, and her colleague Paolo is also wonderfully patient and helpful.

James Urquhart-Burton
I was incredibly lucky to have found then appoint James Urquhart-Burton in October 2025 to assist with my Mam’s CHC funding and from the first point of contact have been impressed, not only with James’ knowledge, professional manner, responsiveness and empathy, but the diligent and tenacious way in which all communications have been delivered, very clear and succinct. My issue with the local ICB is ongoing, yet during this time of great uncertainty, and obvious stress, feel confident in the reassuring support James is providing. James, you have gone above and beyond for us so far and are an absolute gem. Winstons and my Mam and I are so, so fortunate to have you as our Solicitor. Thank you.

Highly recommend Winston Solicitors
We recently used Winston Solicitors for conveyancing on both the sale of our previous home and the purchase of our new one. Michelle Ayres was exceptional throughout. She was accessible, proactive, and it genuinely felt like she was on our side and working in our best interests. There were a few challenges in the chain, but Michelle was always willing to take the time to explain the situation, outline our options, and keep everything moving. As our process stretched over 6 months, there were times when Michelle was out of the office, but Olivia Cooke and Samantha Robertson-Strong seamlessly picked things up and ensured nothing ever slipped. It was an outstanding experience that made a difficult and often stressful process far more manageable. We would highly recommend Winston Solicitors, and especially Michelle, to anyone, and we will certainly look to use their services again in future (although we plan to enjoy our new home and give ourselves a well earned break for now).

From start to finish Samantha Robertson-Strong and Michelle Ayres were fabulous! Always at the other end of the phone, communication was excellent, along with a progress App which we could access at any point. They did everything they said they would, when they said they would, would highly recommend to others and would be happy to work with both Sam and Michelle again. Thank you for making it a smooth journey!

Richard

Harriet Reid dealt with my divorce aided by her excellent assistant Judith Pearson. Both Harriet and Judith were incredibly quick to respond to any questions or concerns I had during the process. I found Harriet to be ideal for me to talk to as she was direct enough to be able to explain what was happening in "plain English" rather than "legal jargon" and to point out the actions I should and shouldn't take. The process is extremely emotive and a calm understanding advisor is essential.

Amr Elshorbagy was impressive throughout my property purchase. He was always quick to respond, kept me updated at every stage, and made the whole process feel much less stressful. I really appreciated how approachable and helpful he was from the start to finish. I’d definitely recommend him to anyone buying a property.
