The legal practice is the latest US firm to reduce the number of its support staff. Tom Fitzgerald, managing partner, said: ‘It comes as no surprise that all law firms have adjusted their administrative support function in response to both improvements in technology and economic conditions that continue to favor lean staffing and efficiency. After careful consideration, Winston & Strawn has made the decision to eliminate nearly 30 administrative positions out of a total 728 staff members across our U.S. offices.’ Source: ABA
