You work for a firm with 17 attorneys. The firm has always done well financially, but recently it has begun to struggle. There is a great deal of pressure for you to meet your billing requirements of 1,800 hours, even if no one has work for you to do. The firm will not accept the answer, “No one is giving me any work.” You are being encouraged to go to each attorney’s office and drum something up. Discuss the ethical situation in which you are being placed and how you might handle it.
