And what about this:

The Lawyer magazine has reported that over 660 redundancies, among lawyers and other fee earners, have already been announced among top 200 law firms since summer. To put those figures into context, that’s the equivalent of a firm like Slaughter & May ceasing to exist overnight. And, Legal Week magazine has reported the widescale introduction of cost saving measures – ranging from
introducing travel restrictions and the cancelling of staff Christmas bonuses.
And now, this hurt is starting to be passed on into the legal IT world.
