The exit of the partners is largely related to a fall-off in insurance work, some of which related to claims over 11 September. But at a partnership meeting on 28 February Mr Newberry asked for a confidence vote in the partnership and some 90% of partners indicated that they would remain with the firm. Once the 15 or so partners go, there would be in the region of 165 left. Source: ABA News
