“The people that answer my phone calls are professional. My clients think the Abby receptionists are working for me in my office.”
Frank J. Himel is a criminal defense attorney and business owner operating in Chicago, IL. Voted one of the top 10 criminal defense attorneys in Chicago, his extremely busy schedule includes extensive case preparation, court attendance, investigations, interviews with witnesses, and so much more. He had limited time for answering phone calls and qualifying cases. He was losing potential clients and thus revenue due to an inability to answer and screen calls. That’s where Abby came in.
