As of 1 June 2007, the 88 year old firm of Hudson Henning & Goodman merged with the long established West Perth practice of Wheatleys Legal.

The two firms together form the HHG Legal Group.

With a team of nearly 50 people in both Perth and Albany, the merged firm specialises in commercial law, family law, litigation, wills & estate planning, banking & finance, deceased estates and conveyancing.

Wheatleys Legal was first started by John Wheatley's grandfather in 1936. Given that Hudson Henning & Goodman was established in 1919, the merger represents the coming together of two well respected firms, both of which have highly distinguished histories.
