Wes Lerch is VERIFY's Founder and Managing Director, bringing over 25 years' experience in personal injury law and insurance litigation.

Having acted for both injured plaintiffs and insurers, he was consistently recognised by Doyle's Guide as one of Queensland's leading personal injury lawyers.

As founding partner of a prominent plaintiff personal injury law firm, Wes worked closely with medico-legal providers and saw firsthand where the traditional approach to medico-legal reporting was falling short. That experience is what led him to launch VERIFY Medico-Legal Solutions, built on a clearer understanding of what clients need, what specialists require, and what the system demands from medical evidence.

In 2024, Wes was appointed Queensland Delegate of the Australasian Association of Medico-Legal Providers (AAMLP) as he is passionate about giving a greater voice to medicolegal providers to better represent themselves and effectively communicate shared concerns to wider industry stakeholders.
