Winnie Tepen, Junior Paw-alegal

Picture
Winnie (a.k.a. Ms. Win, Stinky Winnie, Winnie Girl)
Paw-alegal | HR (Human Retriever) | Junior Attorney at Paw
Winnie joined the firm before she was even two months old, born into the law and raised among depositions, chew toys, and a mountain of belly rubs. From day one, she’s balanced professional decorum with unbridled enthusiasm, proving herself as both a Certified Good Girl (CGG) and one of the most beloved members of the team.

​Beyond the office, Winnie is a social butterfly, often spotted in high-energy “meetings” with Hugo.  She also hosts a near daily “Breakfast Briefing,” where she ensures no yogurt spoon, cup, or lid goes unlicked, her ongoing contribution to sustainability. . . and snacks.

​Whether it’s offering comfort, comic relief, or just reminding everyone that joy belongs in the workplace, Winnie is proof that every underdog has their day.

Bar Admissions: the backyard, the entire office, the conference room, and (most importantly) the kitchen.  

Areas of Expertise: squirrel surveillance, client-relations tail wags, and emotional support during depositions.  When she’s not keeping a sharp eye on squirrels or shredding the occasional piece of paper, she’s a fierce litigator in the fields of Treat Contract Negotiations, Chew Toy Dismemberment Law, Squeaky Toy Litigation, and Cross-Species Mediation.

Winnie’s list of achievements is as long as her leash: honorary degree in Pawblic Relations, precedent-setting work in In Re Missing Stuffed Limbs (with an emphasis on ear dismantling), authorship of the internal memo Due Process for Second Treats, and drafting the landmark “Cuddle Clause,” which guarantees daily affection breaks for team members.
