Both lawyers have wives who periodically come into the office to assist in the operations of the law firm. The wife of Lawyer A does payroll and monitors the books, while the wife of Lawyer B (once a paralegal herself) gets involved in the more complex paralegal research. Currently, neither wife is compensated; however, with the wives' involvement in the operations of the law firm, both Lawyer A and Lawyer B could take a portion of their income and pay it to their wives.
