A main driver has been achieving greater efficiency through technology. A statement from the firm says: ‘Advances in technology have resulted in a need for fewer support staff and related services in law firms. In addition, we are positioning our firm to reflect the industries and markets we serve….While it is always difficult to say farewell to longtime colleagues, we are confident that this realignment and the creation of an in-house administrative resource center will enable us to serve clients more efficiently and strengthen the firm in the long term.’ There are about 525 lawyers in the firm overall.
