Kimberly "Kim" Wexler is an American retired business lawyer and public defender who worked in Albuquerque, New Mexico, currently residing in Titusville, Florida as an employee at a sprinkler manufacturer company and a volunteer at a pro bono legal services firm. She is the ex-wife and former confidant of retired lawyer and convicted criminal Jimmy McGill, whom she met while working at Hamlin, Hamlin & McGill (HHM) as an intern, and had dated for several years before their six-month marriage. Despite retiring as a lawyer, Kim's New Mexico bar card does not have an expiration date, allowing her to visit Jimmy in prison as a lawyer.
Throughout her law career, Kim received praise as a lawyer for being highly skilled at negotiation and devising legal strategies in order to get her clients the best deals possible, though she was sometimes undermined at HHM by Howard Hamlin and Chuck McGill, her former bosses at HHM. After leaving HHM, Kim became the head of Schweikart & Cokely's banking division and hired Kevin Wachtell and Paige Novick from Mesa Verde Bank and Trust as her clients, before quitting the firm and dropping Mesa Verde to focus her attention on pro bono work. She and Jimmy also briefly worked at their own startup law firm Wexler McGill, which consisted of twin solo firms. Outside of the law, Kim had a few part-time jobs including working at Saul Goodman Productions, and also assisted Jimmy with various cons and schemes after being drawn in by Jimmy's cons.
Background information
Kimberly Wexler was born on February 13, 1968, and grew up in Red Cloud, Nebraska. She lived with her mother during her childhood, her other known relatives include a grandmother and cousin. As a child she never had a house to live in as her family never actually owned one due to being very poor. Kim and her mother would often flee from temporary residences before eviction occurred. ("JMM", "Wexler v. Goodman") In 1984, a teenage Kim sat in the back office of a department store. The store manager entered the office with Kim's mother, telling her that the girl was caught attempting to shoplift a pair of earrings and a necklace. Kim's mother seemingly admonished her daughter and threatened to take the value of the items out of her allowance, but the manager graciously declined either that or calling the police. Outside of the store, Kim's mother dropped the facade and showed that she didn't care about what happened, revealing that she herself had shoplifted the same items, and gave them to Kim. As they drove away from the store, Kim vacantly looked out of the car window. ("Axe and Grind") Dissatisfied with the few opportunities she had in Nebraska, Kim moved to Colorado and enrolled in the University of Colorado-Boulder. After graduating with a Bachelor’s degree, Kim moved to Albuquerque, New Mexico, and enrolled in the JD program at the University of New Mexico School of Law, and on the side she found a job in the mail room of the firm Hamlin, Hamlin & McGill (HHM), who paid for Kim’s law school tuition. When Christian "Combo" Ortega stole a baby Jesus from a Nativity set as a juvenile, Jesse Pinkman accompanied Combo to juvenile court, where he was represented by Kim, who helped Combo get out of trouble. ("Waterworks") In 1993, Jimmy is delivering mail at HHM and talks to his co-workers about a betting pool for the Academy Awards he has organized. He crosses paths with Kim, who is also doing mail rounds. Jimmy's elder brother Chuck enters the office to a big round of applause, having just won a big inheritance lawsuit using his knowledge of obscure case law. When Chuck approaches the pair, he answers Kim's questions on case law, but is annoyed by Jimmy. After Kim's boss Howard collects Chuck, Kim continues her rounds, and Jimmy walks past HHM's law library. He turns around and steps inside, deciding to become a lawyer like Chuck and Kim. ("Piñata") Kim worked her way up to becoming one of the go-to litigators at HHM, which helped inspire Jimmy to pursue a legal career himself. With HHM incurring the brunt of her law school tuition, she felt an extreme sense of obligation to the firm. ("Bad Choice Road") It was at this job where she first met Jimmy McGill. It is implied that they started some kind of uncommitted romantic or sexual relationship during this time, as at the start of the show they are not officially together but talk about things that they seem to have done in the past, i.e., Jimmy's late night call to Kim and her knowing about the "robot sex voice". ("Nacho")
Prior to Breaking Bad
Kim eventually moves to Titusville, Florida, where she began dating a fellow Titusville resident named Glen. She also gets a job at Palm Coast Sprinkler, a sprinkling company that Kim produces catalogs and brochures for. She changed her hairstyle, abandoning her former ponytail and sporting longer, darker hair. ("Breaking Bad", "Waterworks")
After Breaking Bad
In 2010, after Jimmy's association with Walter White and involvement in his drug empire becomes known to the public including Kim ("Breaking Bad"), he goes into hiding with the help of Ed Galbraith. ("Granite State") Following this, the Albuquerque police seize his personal property from his mansion. As a cabinet is loaded onto a truck, Kim's souvenir tequila bottle stopper falls to the ground. ("Wine and Roses") Kim's relationship with Jimmy was covered in a documentary that was released about him, with Suzanne Ericsen saying in the documentary that she never understood what Kim saw in Jimmy. ("American Greed: James McGill") When Saul calls Francesca for an update on everything going in Albuquerque since he fled, Francesca reveals that she had gotten a call from Kim checking in on her after everything went down. During the call, Kim had asked if Saul was still alive, but Francesca didn't tell her anything. ("Breaking Bad") Kim cuts potatoes in her kitchen in Titusville, Florida. Both she and her boyfriend Glen fix a potato salad for a cookout/potluck that the two are holding with three other couples in Kim's back yard. After the party ends and the two have sex, Kim is solving a puzzle while Glen is watching The Amazing Race on television. Eventually, after Glen leaves her home, Kim brushes her teeth and goes to bed. ("Waterworks") The following day, Kim drives to her job producing catalogs and brochures for Palm Coast Sprinkler. After spending most of the day going through her normal workplace routine, Kim is stunned upon receiving a phone call from a man calling himself Viktor St. Clair. On the other end of the line is "Gene Takavic", calling from Nebraska. After drawing the blinds and closing the door to her office, Kim reluctantly takes Gene's call. Gene wants to touch base with Kim after not being in contact after six years, but Kim tells him that he shouldn't have called her. She further tells Gene to turn himself in, to which he reacts angrily and tells her to do likewise. Overcome with emotion, Kim tells Gene that, "I'm glad you're alive", and hangs up, She then leaves her office to join the rest of her co-workers in singing "Happy Birthday" to a secretary, but her mind is clearly somewhere else. ("Waterworks") Kim takes a flight to Albuquerque and visits the Bernalillo County Courthouse, observing places she remembers from her former life. She then visits the Hamlin residence, where she is greeted by Howard's widow Cheryl. In the dining room, Kim hands over an affidavit detailing her and Jimmy's scheme to frame Howard as a cocaine addict, Howard's murder by Lalo, and the staging of his death as a suicide by men working for Gus (including Mike). Cheryl is overwhelmed, her longstanding suspicions confirmed. Kim says that Howard "didn't suffer", but Cheryl angrily retorts that his reputation was thoroughly ruined because of the lies Kim and Jimmy told. Kim informs Cheryl that she has given a copy of her affidavit to the district attorney, but it is unlikely she will be prosecuted or that Howard's body will be found. However, when Cheryl notes she could file a civil suit and take everything Kim has, Kim does not discourage her from doing so. Kim flies back to Florida. On board an airport shuttle bus, she fails to hold back her emotions and breaks down sobbing, being comforted by someone sitting next to her. ("Waterworks") Following her visit to Albuquerque, Kim returns to her previous life in Florida while facing the heavy possibility of Cheryl's civil suit (with Bill Oakley informing Jimmy that Cheryl is reportedly "lawyer shopping"). On an impulse, she leaves work early and volunteers at a local pro bono legal services firm. She is called by Albuquerque district attorney Suzanne Ericsen to warn her about Saul's arrest and upcoming testimony that could affect her. She attends Saul's trial and watches as he confesses to all his crimes and indispensable role in Walt's drug empire, as well as sabotaging Chuck's insurance that led to his ouster from HHM and eventual suicide. Saul declares that he's James McGill and leaves his alternate persona, while admitting that he had lied about additional information about Howard because he wanted Kim to be there while he admitted to everything. Some time later, Kim visits Jimmy in prison in Colorado using her old bar card that did not have an expiry. They share a cigarette together and he points at her with finger guns as she leaves.("Saul Gone")
Kim is shown to be a highly intelligent, dedicated, caring, formidable and loyal woman who is a highly skilled lawyer. Despite a poor upbringing in Nebraska with a neglectful and shoplifting mother and few opportunities to thrive, Kim was able to get out and make something of herself, becoming one of the best lawyers at Hamlin, Hamlin & McGill (HHM) as a result. Kim is shown to greatly cherish her work and her ability to help her clients and further the interests of her law firm. She is highly skilled at negotiation and devising legal strategies in order to get her clients the best deals possible, which earns her the praise of many lawyers. Despite poor treatment from her boss Howard Hamlin, Kim initially does not let grudges consume her and keeps her head down and works strongly to dig herself out of problems, showing her fearlessness and independence.
During her relationship with him, Kim was shown to love Jimmy McGill unconditionally for his initial kindness and humorous nature, and was a dedicated friend, girlfriend, and wife towards him. She showed compassion for Jimmy on numerous occasions and sympathy for the poor treatment he suffered at the hands of his older brother Chuck and also Howard while operating under Chuck's orders. She personally defended Jimmy on numerous occasions despite being well aware of his own unethical actions, showing her care for him. Despite this Kim herself had shown shock and disgust at Jimmy's shortcut schemes and dirty tactics to achieve his goals, and also anger when his actions caused her to be punished and put her own career in jeopardy.
There was however a dark side to Kim and she appeared to secretly admire Jimmy for his ability to get his way through unethical actions and masterfully crafted cons. She initially found thrill in tricking others alongside Jimmy for personal gain and later enlisted him to use his manipulation skills to further her own work agendas, such as swapping out a series of blueprints that will give Mesa Verde a larger branch. As revealed by flashbacks, Kim had always had a darker side, shoplifting with her mother as part of a con as a child and continuing to wear the stolen earrings and necklace to after she divorced Jimmy in late 2004, only that she unconsciously kept it hidden inside her.
While not as skilled as Jimmy, Kim herself was shown to be manipulative and cunning and was capable of devising intricate, illicit schemes herself to help her or Jimmy's clients as seen by her plan to spare Jimmy's bodyguard, Huell Babineaux, years in prison through a series of deliberate scams painting him as a beloved hero in his home town. Despite her awareness of Jimmy's misdeeds on numerous occasions, Kim never shifted her loyalty away from Jimmy and fully supported him and helped him fight back when he was in trouble, notably by aiding him in proving his brother's mental illness in court in order to exonerate Jimmy. Despite having a role in the events that lead to Chuck's death, Kim showed great remorse for helping to tear Chuck down and was strongly impacted and saddened by his tragic suicide.
Despite this, Kim was shown to be greatly ignorant, even willfully as she appeared to not even grasp that Jimmy had no true remorse for his brother's suicide despite being partially responsible himself, and instead angrily attacked Howard for suggesting Chuck killed himself and for attempting to hurt Jimmy, even though he didn't care less and that was in no way Howard's intention. She appeared pleased to see him express genuine remorse for Chuck's death during his reinstatement hearing, though was absolutely shocked in the end when he revealed it was an insincere performance to regain his law license.
In 2004, Kim's personality changed dramatically, mainly for the worst. She appears to be conflicted over whether to do the right thing or resort to unethical measures to get her way and help her clients, though at Jimmy's urging she appeared to prefer the unethical route. Kim still displayed kindness as seen by her sympathy towards Everett Acker for wanting to keep his home and she willingly conspired against her primary clients, Mesa Verde, with Jimmy's help though even she showed disgust at his actions that were against her wishes. However instead of reprimanding Jimmy for humiliating her, she instead proposed marriage in order for the two to no longer keep secrets from each other.
