Moss & Barnett's New Certified Paralegal, Misty J. Tautges

Misty J. Tautges, a paralegal with our construction law, litigation, and accountant law teams, was recently certified as a Minnesota Certified Paralegal (MnCP). Misty assists lawyers in all phases of the litigation process. Her experience, attention to detail, and excellent client service make her a vital part of the legal team. Misty’s duties include facilitating document production, performing legal research and document reviews, and analyzing and organizing case information. She is heavily involved with e-discovery in all its facets and acts as the firm’s co-administrator of the Relativity document management system.

In June 2014, the Minnesota Paralegal Association announced its voluntary certification program to establish a standard of competency for paralegals in Minnesota. The program is an opportunity for Minnesota paralegals to validate their qualifications and offers a credential to paralegals who meet certain education and experience requirements. Misty joins the ranks of our other MnCPs: Shelly Doerr, Mara Gollin-Garrett, Carol Yerks, Carolyn McCune, and Debra LaTerza. Paralegals are key elements of the firm’s practice teams, assisting the firm’s attorneys in providing efficient, cost-effective solutions to the legal needs of our clients.
