Wendell gets disgusted with the ethics at Xavier & Young and decides to go to work for a large law firm that has a civil litigation department handling major lawsuits. This firm, Allison & Beals, has billing guidelines that require paralegals to put in 1,800 billable hours a year. If it takes eight hours on the job to produce seven billable hours, how many hours a week will Wendell have to work to reach the firm goal? After the first month on the job, Wendell gets a report showing that he billed 150 hours but that 20 hours were written off as being duplicative of the work that an associate did. What should Wendell do? Wendell becomes concerned toward the end of the year that he will not meet the billable requirement. He does not have enough work to warrant working overtime to make up for the hours. What can he do? Another paralegal, Zina Zumbrun, tells Wendell that she sometimes adds a tenth of an hour to each hour's work to make up for the time written off. What should Wendell do about this? Is it ethical for him to do what Zina does? Should Wendell tell anyone about Zina's billing practices?
