Long-Time Brown Fox Legal Assistant Kathy Rhotenberry to Retire in December

December 6, 2020 by

As Adam Fox and Russ Brown will tell you, they came to appreciate what a difference a talented legal assistant could make at a law firm. Brown Fox’s Managing Partner Russ Brown shared, “Kathy joined us in the early days and brought this incredible, cheerful, go-getter attitude to the firm. Her presence not only had a big impact on the work she did, but on the entire firm. We are sad to see her go, but we also feel so blessed to have had her here for all of these years.”

Her presence not only had a big impact on the work she did, but on the entire firm.

Ms. Rhotenberry has worked with firm co-founder Adam Fox since she arrived, and also Cort Thomas, David Tiffany, and Neal Parekh. Mr. Fox summarized the value she brought to the firm: “Kathy is incredibly talented from a technical standpoint. She is well-organized, has great attention to detail, is very dependable, and is able to multi-task to a very high degree; but that is not why we will miss her most. She is an integral part of the culture of our firm and has become a dear friend to each of us. We are all sad she is leaving, but grateful for the time she spent at Brown Fox and wish her and Bill nothing but the best in their retirement.”

Ms. Rhotenberry and her husband, Bill, plan to play a lot of golf and enjoy the lake during their newly found free time.
