McDermott Will & Emery has joined the ranks of law firms cutting jobs with the announcement that it is to lay off 149 members of staff. The US firm informed staff yesterday (3 February) of the decision to lay off 60 lawyers and 89 business support staff in an internal email. The cuts will only affect staff in the firm's US offices, but the firm's London-based associates have also been affected by the firm's cost-cutting measures, with pay reviews pushed back by two months.
