Three senior associates and one junior lawyer were made redundant in the group. A paralegal and two support staff members are also leaving. But the fall in work seems to reflect local, rather than national or international, conditions. Tony Britten-Jones, managing partner in Adelaide, said: 'This was a difficult decision, but reflects a downturn in dispute resolution work in Adelaide in the last nine months.' He added that the litigation team will be looking to offer more alternative fee arrangements in future as a way of making its proposition more attractive to clients. The firm has 15 partners located in Adelaide and 41 lawyers. Source: Lawyers Weekly
