About Us

Leonard Blake Legal was established by lawyers with extensive experience on the insurer’s side, providing a unique insight into the workings of compensation systems. This background equips them with the knowledge and perspective needed to advocate effectively for clients seeking just compensation. We provide plaintiff-focused legal services across a broad range of personal injury matters. This includes advising and acting for individuals in workers compensation claims, motor vehicle accidents, public liability matters, medical negligence, dust disease, and institutional abuse cases. As a boutique practice, we are able to support clients at particularly vulnerable points in their lives with clear advice, careful preparation, and practical advocacy. We place a strong emphasis on understanding each client’s circumstances and preparing matters properly from the outset, while anticipating how insurers and opposing parties are likely to assess, defend, and progress each claim. In employment law, we assist employees and, in some matters, employers with issues such as unfair dismissal, workplace discrimination and bullying, underpayment and wage disputes, and other related employment matters. We focus on early, sensible resolution where appropriate, while remaining prepared to litigate strategically when required. Having spent many years acting on the defendant side in workers compensation, we bring a detailed understanding of how claims are assessed and resolved by insurance companies and employers. That insight, combined with our boutique model, allows us to deliver a highly personalised experience, streamline processes, and achieve strong outcomes for our clients efficiently. Leonard Blake Legal takes a client-centred approach, beginning with a free, no-obligation case assessment to understand each client’s circumstances and provide honest advice. They prioritise the client’s physical and psychological recovery by efficiently gathering evidence and preparing cases to achieve fair outcomes. The team acts promptly if insurers delay, refuse, or undervalue claims, with a readiness to proceed to court if necessary, always aiming to maximise compensation without unnecessary delay. With a commitment to removing the burden of legal processes from their clients, Leonard Blake Legal stands as a trusted advocate in securing fair compensation and helping clients move forward.
