Been at this firm for 5 months and generally like work/environment but I’m not getting enough work to meet billing requirements. I get one assignment at a time in most cases. I’ve been requesting more work via email to form a paper trail in case I get asked. Any tips on how to get more work or what to do?

Go through your files and see if any discovery needs to done. Whether discovery responses have come in and need to be reported on. And whether any subpoena responses have come in that need summarized. Put together a list of what you see and go talk to the attorneys on those files to make sure you can do that work.

Received a job offer. Was wondering if anyone had any thoughts on a concern I had about it. It's an entry level position, and I don't have much experience. The billables are 2040 a year. For billable hours in civil litigation and insurance defense, is 2040 hours for a 1st year associate on the high end in this field for a small or midsize firm? It seems like most attorneys I know have minimum requirements of around 1800. The compensation is around 80k a year.
