She joined Maslon after a long career in public service, working for a decade as general counsel for the Minnesota Department of Labor and Industry (DLI). Among her many responsibilities, she led regulatory enforcement and prepared contracts, interagency agreements, and legislation associated with labor and industry-related chapters. She also reviewed and advised on data practices requests and conducted trainings on prevailing wage, wage and hour, child labor, Women’s Economic Security Act (WESA), construction misclass, and apprenticeship. In addition, Leanne represented the state at settlement conferences resolving violations, arrearages, and penalties.

During her tenure with the state Department of Labor and Industry, Leanne served as one of the DLI's representatives on the governor's COVID-19 emergency response team, addressing issues regarding essential workers, health and safety rules for workers, and vaccination policy. She also served as an assistant attorney general in Minnesota for over 11 years.
