Our People

It all started at the kitchen table…

Leanne Bartram, Principal

Prior to founding Bartram Lawyers in 2005, Leanne worked at Arthur Robinson (now Allens), Lander & Rogers and Madgwicks.

At the urging of several clients (many of whom she still acts for today) Leanne established Bartram Lawyers - literally at her kitchen table. Since then, Bartram Lawyers has grown from the repeat referrals of satisfied clients and their advisers, accountants, barristers and other professionals.

Leanne has experience in a broad range of areas including estate planning and estate matters, commercial and general litigation, commercial law, insolvency and reconstruction, family law, trusts and business succession.

A focus of Leanne’s practice is estate planning. Leanne drafts Wills and Powers of Attorney, advises clients on structuring for asset protection and succession, and also represents parties in Part IV Applications and other estate related litigation. Leanne also works regularly in all areas of family law.

Leanne is a past member of Women Presidents Organisation and Women in Finance. For many years, Leanne was the Trustee of a Welfare Trust for the aged, underprivileged and newly migrated. Leanne continues to be a Director and Legal Counsel to TrekMedic, a charity providing medical relief to rural Nepal.

Outside of work, Leanne is a reformer Pilates fanatic, has a green thumb, and is the proud mother to three adult children (who you may just come across if you visit us at our office).
