Danbury Probate Court Judge Dianne Yamin is retiring when her term ends January 3rd.  She will not seek a ninth four-year term this upcoming November, instead will be elected President of the National College of Probate Judges during  a national conference in November. 

Yamin says it's been her passion to serve as Danbury Probate Court Judge for the past three decades, but she wants to devote her time to this new role to bring probate best practices from all over the country back to Connecticut.  The National College of Probate Judges produces publications and partners with other national organizations. 

Judge Yamin will continue to serve as Co-Chair of the Peter and Carmen Lucia Buck Foundation’s Danbury Age Well Council and as Immediate Past President of the Lion’s Club of Danbury. She also serves as corporator with the Savings Bank of Danbury, on the Dean’s Advisory Board of the Ancell School of Business, on the Finance Council of The Eparchy of St. Maron, and as Co-Advisor of the Maronite Youth Organization of St. Anthony’s Maronite Catholic Church. She is an associate attorney at Yamin & Yamin, LLP in Danbury with her husband and brother-in-law.
