You choose your level of service, if you so wish we can leave no stone unturned and reach out daily however there are cost implications, so we’ll manage expectations from the outset.

Transparency of pricing

We will set the standards and expectations from the outset and endeavour to give you full transparency when it comes to the scope of work involved and any unexpected variations.

Expertise

The best solicitor will be selected with the exact expertise for your matter. As a full-service firm you have the benefit of having access to multiple specialist solicitors across all areas of law covering every eventuality and giving you peace of mind.

Knowledge

The solicitor will garner full knowledge and understanding of your matter, insofar as possible, during your consultation.

Supporting Western Australians for more than 100 years

The way you represented us, your professionalism, and support was excellent. I was really impressed with the way you spoke to the judge about the accident details and how you turned the case around. We understand both parties were at fault, but without having you in our corner the result would have been a lot different. It was a very stressful situation for us both, and the support you gave us is something we will remember. Thank you so very much.

DAVID

Dianne has been an incredible help through my separation and I really appreciate all the work she has done, her approach to it all and her high level of knowledge.

I would like to take this opportunity to thank you all for your help and expertise in helping me out on my situation. You all have been very professional and easy to talk to, putting my mind at rest. I can’t recommend you and your services enough. Thank you HHG.

We are delighted and more than satisfied with the service provided by Aimee at HHG Mandurah.

Ours was a complex estate transaction that I was a little nervous about. I needn’t have worried. Aimee explained the complexities of the process with great clarity with the fee structures being totally transparent and clearly itemised. I will be forever grateful to Aimee and the HHG staff for their professionalism and competence.

We could rest easy knowing we were in safe hands.

Grant.

Thank you so so very much from the bottom of our hearts for all that you and your team have done Aimee.

Can’t say I am not relieved to not see an email from you but I will be in touch soon to sort our wills out. Lesson learned on that part!

Kerrilee.

Thank you so much for all you have done to assist us through this very complex journey, Aimee.

You made this process so much easier for us to navigate, especially with all of the really complicated legal requirements. You genuinely took some pressure off us when life was happening around us.

Candice.
