Born in Beloeil, Quebec, Leal received a Bachelor of Arts degree in 1940 from McMaster University. A Rhodes Scholar from Ontario in 1940, he never took up the appointment due to the war.

He was Dean of Osgoode Hall Law School, when it was engaged in a major debate about the future of legal education in Ontario - and in particular, how much influence the legal profession should have on legal education. He was appointed Vice-Chairman of the Ontario Law Reform Commission which was the first statutory law reform body in the British Commonwealth. Upon the appointment of the Honourable James C.

From 1977 to 1981, he was the Deputy Attorney General of Ontario, the head civil servant in the department which is similar to a Deputy Minister, during the negotiation of the Trudeau era constitutional reforms which led to the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms.
