If you have an existing area drain close by, you could have a second drain installed near the puddles and connect it to the existing drain. It seems like a heavy rain would cause more standing water than an irrigation leak, unless the leak is very bad. I would at least have someone dig a hole and see if it fills up with water. But, you really need an expert opinion from someone who does grading and drainage work.
