SA question

Post by Anonymous User » Wed May 24, 2017 1:28 pm

I'm currently a SA at a mid sized firm (50-100 attorneys). I'm not assigned to any particular attorney. I have completed the couple assignments I was given and asked a few people for other work. Is it acceptable for me to send out a mass email to the associates asking if they have any work for me, or does that come off as unprofessional?

Definitely don't do that. Figure out how SA's get assigned work in that office. But don't do that.

Generally there is a work coordinator who is in charge of getting work from associates and partners and getting it to SAs. Ask the staff person who is in charge of SAs who the work coordinator is.
