Leong Law: Personal Legal Services in Wellington's Eastern Suburbs

Leong Law is a Rongotai-based law firm with over 60 years of combined expertise serving families and businesses across Wellington's Eastern Suburbs. Led by David Leong and Vivienne Giles, the firm describes its golden rule simply: treat people how we'd like to be treated ourselves.

A Personal Approach

Leong Law positions itself around genuinely personal service. Clients are never passed off to junior lawyers — instead, the firm walks alongside each client through the entire process, whatever the matter. The firm frames this as more than a legal transaction: working with Leong Law means access to David Leong's relationship network, built over a career spanning more than 30 years in the Eastern Suburbs. If Leong Law can't help with a particular matter, the firm says it will try to refer clients to someone who can.

What They're Known For

Conveyancing is a core part of the practice, covering residential, commercial, retirement village and refinancing transactions. The team reviews and improves documents for Tender, Auction and Buyer Enquiry Over sales, and scrutinises the fine print on Agreement for Sale and Purchase forms to make sure special conditions protect the client's interests.

Beyond conveyancing, Leong Law helps families with estate administration, guiding clients through carrying out the wishes of a family member who has passed away, and drafting wills to provide for loved ones. The firm also prepares enduring powers of attorney, a service the team notes is becoming more popular given an ageing population, aiming to make these documents more useful, accurate and less intimidating.

Local Real Estate Expertise

Given its Eastern Suburbs base, Leong Law has developed particular expertise in local property matters, including subdivisions, easements and boundary adjustments. The firm describes this as an opportunity for clients wanting to get involved in the property activity happening in the area, backed by local real estate knowledge and an extensive network of relationships.

The Experience

Leong Law describes its service as tailored to each client's individual needs — comparing it to a tailor-made suit that fits better than something purchased off the rack. The firm has helped multiple generations of extended local families with conveyancing, wills, estate administration and powers of attorney, building long-term relationships rather than one-off transactions.

For anyone in Kilbirnie, Rongotai or the wider Eastern Suburbs needing conveyancing, estate planning, or subdivision advice, Leong Law offers a locally rooted, relationship-driven alternative to larger, less personal firms.
