Windy City Law Firm Sacks At Least 33 www.EmploymentCrossing.com Thirty-three lawyers and an undisclosed number of administrative staff at Mayer Brown, the Chicago-based law firm, were fired this week at its US offices because of the slow economy. The firings don’t include lawyers who were asked to leave via the firm’s performance review process, according to a statement. Mayer Brown is the fifth major US law firm to fire lawyers this month, as the recession slows legal work. At some firms, practice areas that are traditionally busy in an economic decline, litigation and bankruptcy, haven’t picked up enough to compensate. Mayer Brown is one of several Chicago-based firms to cut lawyers in the past two months. Sonnenschein, Nath & Rosenthal and Katten Muchin Rosenman have also trimmed their attorney ranks.
