Cobbetts is putting the finishing touches to a major restructuring that has resulted in a series of partner exits, Legal Week has learnt, as the top 50 firm moves to bed down a string of regional mergers.
The shake-up, which is set to be finalised in a matter of days, is understood to have led to the ‘managed’ exits of at least 10 partners over the last nine months as part of a push to forge a more profitable and streamlined partnership. It is unclear whether the restructuring will impact on support staff.
