[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]As a former big law restructuring associate, I would have appreciated an email like that.  No one (who didn't sign up for it) wants to do bankruptcy/restructuring but if it's what is needed, then everyone should be willing to step up.  I would be pissed if my corporate or litigation colleagues were just hanging out and collecting the same salary while I was busting my butt![/quote]

I was a litigation associate and got roped into a restructuring case because they needed the help.  A bunch of us were pulled in and of course, yes was the only answer when the call for help came.  But the key was COMMUNICATION!  If you need associates/NSP's, then look at the hours list and CALL THEM!  But given the poor communication at most firms, they may not even know that this work is available!  Especially now that everyone's working from home and you may not run into folks in person to talk about what's happening at the firm.    If someone's hours are low and they turn down the work, address them accordingly. Don't send this d-wad email. [/quote]
