Dear CATIC Agents,

It is with sincere appreciation that we announce that Jayne Benoit will be retiring from CATIC/VATC on July 1, 2024, after 14 years of dedicated service. Jayne has been an integral part of our Vermont team and many of your teams as well. Her impressive career as a paralegal spans over 30 years, beginning with private practices in Chittenden County before joining VATC in 2010.

Jayne’s longevity, dedication, and commitment to the legal field have left a lasting impact. She brought a positive presence, tenacity, and extensive experience to her work every day. There was no task too challenging for Jayne; she tackled everything with enthusiasm and unparalleled customer service.

Jayne is truly one of a kind, and her absence will be felt by all of us. Please join us in congratulating Jayne for her remarkable career and wish her well in this new chapter of life. Have fun Jayne!

We invite you to share your memories, express well wishes, and bid farewell to our outstanding colleague at our June 11, 2024 CLE where there will be cards available to write in and give to Jayne.
