    Feel for any of the remaining employees. What a complete and utter cluster *expletive*

    What I don't understand is why they don't just leave?

    eg if 95% of the company has been wiped out whats to stop the partners shutting up shop, going across the road and opening a new law firm that has their customers come across.

    Exactly what is it that this new hedge fund is buying when they buy 95% if your asset can get up and move house?

    Equity partner buy in can be hundreds of thousands or more dollars.

    I have been told that many SG lawyers have moved over to other firms and taking cases away.

    Most are at Logan Law which is in the old Trilby Misso office in the city.

    It's pleasing that the esteemed members of PChat haven't lowered themselves to such lawyer jokes, such as:-

    Q: How do you stop a lawyer from drowning?
    A: Take your foot off his head.

    Oh, no... collective displeasure...
