Jackie Ruby and Kim Berrigan join Williams +Hughes, and our new premises in Geraldton

Williams + Hughes are delighted to announce that Jacqueline Ruby and Kim Berrigan at Ruby & Associates, a long standing Geraldton law firm, have joined the Geraldton office of Williams + Hughes Commercial Lawyers.

We are very excited to welcome Jackie and Kim to our Geraldton team. Their wealth of experience and deep connections in Geraldton will take our regional office to the next level. We will now have two lawyers, Anthea Shaw and Jackie Ruby,  permanently in our office, along with June Burton, our paralegal and Geraldton Office Manager. Kim Berrigan, Leanne Scott and Jodi Heinrich round out our Admin/Office team in Geraldton.

Jackie Ruby has almost 30 years’ expertise in a range of commercial and private client matters. She established her own law firm in 1998 and operated Ruby & Associates until joining Williams + Hughes. She has assisted clients from all walks of life in respect of a range of issues including Criminal and Traffic matters, Personal Injuries actions, Restraining Orders, Property matters, Wills, Deceased Estates and Estate Disputes. More recently her focus has been on assisting clients in administering Deceased Estates and in relation to contested Wills proceedings. Jackie is also a District Public Notary for the Midwest Region.

Kim Berrigan joined Ruby & Associates in April 1998 and worked as Practice and Accounts Manager of the firm for over 22 years. She brings a wealth of knowledge to Williams + Hughes, and is looking forward to the new challenges her role will bring.

Along with the expansion of our office team, we have also expanded our Geraldton premises- by moving to 146 Fitzgerald Street, Geraldton, where Ruby & Associates were based. Williams + Hughes opened our Geraldton branch office on 17 December 2007, and after 18 years at Foreshore Drive we are very excited to move to larger and nicer premises on Fitzgerald Street. We have more offices, more meeting rooms, more natural light and a private carpark with a discrete entry to our office.    

The Directors and staff of Williams + Hughes welcome Jackie and Kim to W+H. Our Geraldton office is well placed for the future.
