Legal Logic Puzzle

Bordwell & Associates

 

A Problem Solving Quiz for the Legal Alert Last week, five members of the Bordwell & Associates' Temp Team were assigned to five different law firms located on different floors in the same high-rise building.  The temps, all in different positions, started their assignments on different days.  From the information below, determine the name of the temporary, the position, the day the assignment started, the name of the law firm, and on which floor the law firm is located. Chris wasn’t the file clerk but enjoyed the assignment at Rutan.  Bordwell’s temp paralegal worked on a litigation case at Gibson. The temp assigned to Pillsbury started on Friday. Pat was busy but was not the receptionist. Chris typed 30 wpm. The five Bordwell temps were, in no particular order: the temp who worked on the 1st floor, the temp who started work on Thursday, the temp who worked at Stradling, Chris, and the temp who was a paralegal. Taylor started working the day before the legal secretary, but two days after the temp who worked on the 5th floor. The legal secretary worked two floors above Lauren’s floor. The temp who started work on Tuesday was on the 2nd floor. Kelly didn’t start work on Monday. Taylor worked on a floor higher than the receptionist but lower than the temp who worked at Stradling. The temp who started on Wednesday didn’t work on the 3rd floor. The word processor typed over 100 wpm and was assigned to Stradling. Kelly enjoyed a spectacular view while on assignment at O’Melveny.   Temporary Position Day Started Law Firm Floor
