After 11 incredible years growing Kindra Migration Lawyers, our Director Simon Leske will be stepping away from immigration law to pursue a new career path in social work.
Simon has made a positive impact on the lives of thousands of clients over nearly 20 years in the immigration law sector. His work has been defined by compassion, integrity and a fierce commitment to helping others. Simon has particularly focused on helping people achieve safety in Australia through the humanitarian visa program and to reunite with family, through complex family visa matters.
Above all though, Simon has been a much-valued colleague, mentor and friend to the team at our firm and the sector more generally. Simon always offers his time generously to those around him, listening to the challenges of a difficult day in this field and being there to celebrate a positive outcome that he knows was hard won.
Simon’s departure is undoubtedly a loss for the migration law community, but we know the same qualities that made him such an exceptional migration lawyer will make him an outstanding social worker.
On behalf of everyone at Kindra Migration Lawyers, thank you, Simon, for your dedication, leadership, friendship and contribution over the years. We are incredibly grateful for all you have given to our clients, our team and our profession.
We wish you every success and happiness in this next adventure.
