Question

When not responding to e-mails, the lawyer on call is encouraged to actively pursue cases that potentially could lead to large settlements. How much time on a 10-hour day can a My-law lawyer dedicate to this activity (assume the lawyer can instantly switch between e-mails and work on a settlement)

Answer 1

0.5 minute

Step-by-step explanation:

To increase the responsiveness of the firm, the board of My-law proposes a new operating policy.

Under the new policy, the response would be highly standardized, reducing the standard deviation for writing the response email to 0.5 minute. The average writing time would remain unchanged.
