Mott's award nomination captures her special service: "Not only has Dorie Mott and her firm donated countless hours, they are also willing to take emergency pro bono bankruptcy cases. MidPenn Legal Services has other pro bono attorneys that are willing to take regular pro bono bankruptcy cases. However, Dorie's efforts are unique and especially worthy of recognition due to Dorie's repeated willingness to take these frequent emergency cases."
