Osborne Clarke officesOsborne Clarke (OC) has lost two more department heads and one of its London-based employment partners boosting the number of partner departures to 19 since the start of 2002, it has emerged.

The scale of departures, which has shocked rivals, represents 18% of the firm’s existing partner count of 105 and highlights OC’s status as the most striking UK victim of the prolonged slump in its core TMT and corporate practices.
