The transaction took the form of a speedy 'pre-pack' administration and sees a number of directors and other lawyers join Gordon Dadds from Jeffrey Green Russell. It is not yet clear how many people will be making the transition; some legal services staff have lost their jobs.

Philip Cohen, chair of Jeffrey Green, said: 'Unfortunately we could not take all our support services staff with us … but we are already helping them to find new jobs. Our fee-earners are hugely enthusiastic for this deal and for what they will be able to achieve in their new home.' Source: The Lawyer
