Rogers wears different hats

By MITCHELL STINSON Staff Writer

Crystal Rogers has a number of different responsibilities at the law office of Murto and Holbrook. Goshen. Her responsibilities go far beyond answering the phone and making coffee. “I’ve basically got three duties, depending on the day and the time of the day," she said. The Cromwell resident is a secretary, office manager and paralegal all rolled into one. As an office manager, she is responsible for such duties as overseeing payments, and keeping track of bills and court deadlines. "With appeals, if you don't get things filed by deadline dates, you're out of luck," she said. As a paralegal, she can do just about anything an attorney can do. except give clients advice or represent them in court. In this capacity. Rogers can draw up legal paperwork like land contracts. adoption petitions or divorce petitions. "It s kind of like high school." she said. "You can do anything you want but it's got to be graded by the teacher first before it leaves the office." The "teachers" in this case are the attorneys in the office. Thomas Murto. Neil Holbrook and Maryellen Baker comprise the list of attorneys in the partnership. There is no such thing as a typical day at the law office. Law is a broad field of work and everyday can be completely different. "That's one thing that makes it so interesting here." Rogers said "Not only the different, people with different problems, but the different personalities of the three attorneys. There's never a dull moment." Rogers landed her job at the law office six years ago, when she was fresh out of secretarial school. She received an associate's degree in secretarial sciences from Ivy Tech, after taking courses in Fort Wayne, Leesburg alumni banquet to be held May 20 The Leesburg Alumni Association will be holding its 55th Alumni Banquet on Saturday. May 20. at the Kosciusko County Shrine Building. All alumni and teachers of Leesburg School are invited to attend. The classes of 1939 and 1963 will receive special recognition The 1989 alumni officers are Sandra Allen, president; J.C. "Mac" Silveus. vice president; and Sue Charlton, secretarytreasurer. Those who yet need to make reservations should call Charlton at 453-3011 It's true You make more friends by becoming interested in other people than by trying to interest people in you ,

South Bend and Warsaw. She had to go to Fort Wayne to get her legal courses. Rogers thinks the associate’s degree was obviously a big factor in helping her beat out the other applicants. •’That and the fact that I was one of the few non-smokers in the group." she said. Through the years. Rogers has seen a lot of different cases come across her desk and she has notic-

ed some trends. One shows that crime and divorce have something in common. 'From what I’ve seen, crime is seasonal," she said. "The same is true with divorce. There’s more at spring time." The paralegal field seems to be the area that Rogers is happiest to be a part of. She said the field is 'hot" and is supposed to have a 98 percent growth factor in the next'lo years.
