Howrey to Cut Between 20 and 30 Partners

Robert Ruyak, Howrey's managing partner, confirmed Thursday that the firm plans to cut between 20 and 30 partners. The firm's profits per partner dropped 35 percent in 2009, and the acquisition of high-profile laterals created internal client conflicts that hurt some partners, sources say. Ruyak says that the hope is to keep the partners at Howrey until helping them land elsewhere. The plan is to position Howrey for a fast recovery, and Ruyak says he believes the firm can thrive by focusing on its core litigation practices.

Both cases involved high school students suspended for creating fake MySpace pages on their home computers ridiculing their principals.

Unwanted Attention: Linklaters Nabs Starring Role in the Lehman Report

The highlight of the 2,200-page report released Thursday that examines the demise of Lehman Brothers starts at around page 700, when the examiner, Jenner & Block chair Anton Valukas, delves into the accounting tricks Lehman used to temporarily shift $50 billion in bad assets off of its balance sheet. The detail jumps out because the report names Linklaters as the only firm Lehman could find to bless the transactions in the way Lehman wanted, according to The Am Law Daily.
