Answer: He cannot delegate his work for Jared to any other lawyer, even one in the same firm

Explanation: Given that there is an anti-delegation clause in the contract for the legal work, between Jared and Wilson, that is, the inability of Wilson to transfer any work he performs for Jared to another lawyer, then he will simply have to do all the work himself, even though he is overwhelmed. Even under legal regulation no contracting party has the right to delegate any activity or performance under such an agreement where an anti-delegation clause has been reached.
