Message from the Chair

Danielle Davis

Distinguished Paralegal of the Year

J. Robyn Dotterer, CP was nominated and was awarded the 2014 Distinguished Paralegal of the Year Award at the annual Paralegal Day Luncheon on May 15, 2014.

Robyn has worked as a paralegal for over twenty-five years. She has worked for Dunn & Dunn for eleven years, during which time she achieved her Certified Paralegal in 1994. She has been employed with Strong & Hanni for fifteen years. She has an outstanding knowledge of the law, demonstrates high ethical standards, and is very dedicated, not only to Strong & Hanni, but also to the community.

Robyn was nominated by Ron Mangone, the Executive Director at Strong & Hanni, as well as several of her attorneys. Mr. Mangone had this to say about Robyn in his nomination:

Robyn has toiled countless hours in unison with her attorneys, staff, and other paralegals to insure that clients receive the best legal representation possible.

Her attorneys rely explicitly on her not only for her quantitative work but also her qualitative skills in analyzing and strategizing a case. She is a vital part of making Strong & Hanni the firm they are.

Robyn has been an active member in the Paralegal Division and the Utah Paralegal Association for many years, serving on various committees. She was a Director-at-Large, co-chair of the Community Service Committee, YLD Liaison for several years, chair of the Utilization Committee, and has continued to dedicate time and knowledge to the Division, Bar, and community. She has published several articles in the Utah Bar Journal on the subject of utilization of paralegals and has reported on the salary surveys which she headed-up while serving on the Paralegal Division Board of Directors. Robyn has acted as the Paralegal Division representative on the Disaster Legal Response Committee. She has been instrumental in facilitating several clothing drives and community service projects and has assisted with Wills for Heroes, where you will also find her husband, Duane, not far from her side, assisting her with her adventures throughout the community. Congratulations Robyn Dotterer!
