Athena Strong is one of our dedicated litigation paralegals. She has previously also worked as a pre-lit paralegal, but her current role functions as more of an “attorney’s assistant” once things go to court. She serves as the liaison between our lawyers and our clients, preparing paperwork and helping throughout the litigation process.
During the discovery phase, Athena does things like answering questions from opposing counsel, plus drafting, and sending necessary documents over. Gathering all the correct information is a long and detail-oriented process, but Athena takes it all in stride. She loves getting to know clients and painting the full picture of what happened to them in their own words. She understands that going to trial is a difficult time and treats each client with the compassion and respect she would want, too.
Athena’s attention to detail, strong organizational skills, and knowledge of court procedures are essential in this role. Her work helps keep the legal process streamlined, thus making sure our clients have the best outcomes for the case.
She is originally from Iowa, but also lived in Mississippi before moving to the Indianapolis area where she joined our team. Athena earned her BA in Philosophy and Political Science from the University of Northern Iowa in 2020, but she’s been working as a paralegal for much longer, gaining experience at a law firm during college and in Mississippi.
In her personal life, she is an outdoorsy girl who loves to camp with her dog named Adonis (Donnie) and take hikes on nature trails. She also enjoys gardening and houseplants. She once even successfully sprouted an avocado plant, but her cat Artemis got to the budding plant before it reached its prime.
“One’s life has value so long as one attributes value to the life of others, by means of love, friendship, indignation, and compassion.”
