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.

From the first call to the final resolution in reclaiming my Mums care fees, James has been very clear and honest in his communication through out the process. Reclaiming care fees is not easy to do but with his expertise and knowledge he was able to complete the process in the time outlined despite the various obstacles put in the way by the people we were dealing with. Would fully recommend as a company to work with

We recently worked with James Burton regarding my father’s Continuing Healthcare application and I would highly recommend his services. I initially found James online after reading the many positive testimonials from other families he had helped, which gave me the confidence to contact him. I can now completely understand why he receives such strong recommendations. He was extremely knowledgeable, professional, and clearly understands exactly how Continuing Healthcare applications need to be presented and processed. His advice gave us confidence throughout what can be a very stressful and complex process, and his expertise and guidance were invaluable to our family. I would not hesitate to recommend James to anyone needing support with Continuing Healthcare applications.

This review is specific to James Urquhart Burton who has researched and progressed an appeal regarding the wrongful payment of care fees relating to someone for whom we had responsibility. James' understanding of this field and subsequent appropriate actions are only equalled by his empathetic and wholly professional manner. He was approachable, reassuring and inspired confidence at all times. We could not recommend his work more highly.

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!

I have used Winstoin Solicitors, several times over the past few years for help with various legal issues. Most recently I used them to help complete the sale of my late mother's property. I would wholeheartedly recommend Sidra Razaq and Paulo Dos Santos, who were efficient, knowledgeable and helpful in getting the sale completed with minimal fuss and problems. They were prompt in their communications and I was very happy with the service I received. Jatinder Sagoo

I would highly recommend Winston Solicitors for their efficiency in the undertaking of the process of assisting me with the purchase of my first house. Amanda and Olivia were very helpful and efficient, completing the process in a much shorter time than other people had suggested it would take which, of course, was very beneficial to me and I'm sure will be to other buyers, many thanks.
