I’m Abby. As a Certified Legal Manager (CLM), it is my goal to share my extensive knowledge of law firm management in the areas of Human Resources, Operations, Finance and Business Management to help you build a firm your clients deserve.

Helping you bridge the gap.

Abigail Davis-Hess, CLM

If you had told me I would be part of the legal industry for over 25 years, I wouldn't have believed it. It all started at the front desk, answering phones. Fast forward to today, and I have held every legal support position a law firm offers. What I love most is firm administration, so much so that I even got certified.

From chaos to calm, I act as an architect for law firms, laying strong foundations, constructing efficient workflows, and ensuring every piece fits perfectly, enabling attorneys to focus on their clients.

I offer comprehensive firm support in the areas of Financial Administration, Human Resources, Operational Management, Technology, Client Relations, and Project Management. Additionally, I serve as a mentor and trainer to law firm staff, helping them enhance their skills and become strong, effective team members to support the firm.
