The North American office of Baker & McKenzie recently laid off 38 attorneys and 86 paralegals and said in a statement that, in select instances, salaries had been reduced to preserve jobs.
Lawyers Weekly approached the Australian arm of Baker & McKenzie to see whether the same strategy would be employed.
