“Katerin has the experience, the wisdom and the institutional knowledge of the firm to lead us through the COVID-19 crisis and take us to the next level when the world finally emerges from it,” stated Scarinci.  “She has the right temperament and personality to inspire confidence and inject our at-home work force with the comfort of knowing that Scarinci Hollenbeck will not just survive, but that it will prosper during the difficult economic times ahead,” Scarinci continued.

“It has been a pleasure to work at a firm that has a vision for its future and a plan to achieve it,” said Traugh.  “Working with high energy leadership and such an experienced team of attorneys and staff has been a rewarding experience.  It is a pleasure to have the opportunity to take the top job and embrace the challenges and opportunities that lie ahead as we prepare Scarinci Hollenbeck for its transition from the twenty-fifth largest law firm in New Jersey to the top ten,” stated Traugh.

Prior to joining Scarinci Hollenbeck, Ms. Traugh garnered over a decade of experience in financial management and accounting, holding finance leadership positions in multiple companies in the professional services and telecom industries, including a Big Four accounting firm.
