Hamlin, Hamlin & McGill (HHM), formerly Hamlin & McGill, is a large law firm based in Albuquerque, New Mexico. It was started by Chuck McGill and George M. Hamlin, with George's son Howard later being promoted to main partner and CEO of the firm.


Hamlin, Hamlin & McGill was founded by Chuck McGill and George M. Hamlin; Chuck mentored George's son Howard as he took his bar exam and joined the firm. Later, Chuck convinced his younger brother Jimmy to move to New Mexico to make a legitimate living working in HHM's mail room. It was there that Jimmy met Kim Wexler.

When Jimmy earned a law degree from a diploma mill and passed the bar exam (after failing twice), he sought a job at HHM. However, Chuck—aghast at the idea of Jimmy, a former con artist, practicing law—instructed Howard to block his advancement. Jimmy eventually left HHM and began a thankless career as a solo practitioner, taking on any work he could, including working with the public defender and writing wills.
