Deborah Watson Deb Watson started her legal career in 1976 as a legal secretary with Woods, Fuller, Shultz & Smith. Over time, her legal knowledge increased and in 1990 the litigation section at the Woods law firm offered her a position as a paralegal. She worked in that capacity until her retirement from Woods at the end of 2006. She joined Fuller & Sabers as a paralegal on a part-time basis beginning January 1, 2007, although to date the "part-time" nature of the position has been illusory. Deb is adept at researching legal issues and writing briefs, and has worked on innumerable summary judgment, discovery, and pretrial motions, as well as many successful briefs for submission to the South Dakota Supreme Court and the Eighth Circuit Court of Appeals. 
Tami Hurley Tami Hurley first entered the legal profession as a word processor at Davenport, Evans, Hurwitz & Smith in 1986. Over the years, she worked as a legal secretary for Hoy & Hoy Law Firm and Thompson Law, P.C., eventually becoming an administrative Assistant at Thompson Law. She was employed briefly at a non-law related job, but missed the challenge presented by working as a legal professional and joined Fuller & Sabers in August of 2007. Her co-workers have found her amiable disposition and cheerful outlook to be a welcome addition to the firm. It doesn't hurt that she is also a crackerjack secretary. 
Sara Heller Sara began her legal career in 2007 as a receptionist at a law firm in Pierre, South Dakota. Within a year she became a full-time file clerk, and soon after was promoted again, this time to a legal secretary position. She worked for three attorneys in a diverse range of practice areas, from estate planning and corporate matters to energy and telecommunications regulatory law, before moving with her family to the Sioux Falls area. She brings a fresh perspective, great organizational skills and personal charm to the Fuller & Sabers firm. |
