Multiple online reports indicate Mayer Brown has laid off 28 associates and 47 staffers. Mayer Brown saw a 14 percent decrease in revenue in 2009 and last April the firm let go of 45 lawyers and 90 staff.
According to a memo obtained by Above The Law, affected personnel will receive salary and benefits continuation packages, outplacement counseling and other assistance to help them through this difficult time.â€
Firm leaders did say in the memo that 2010 is off “to a positive start†for Mayer Brown, but apparently it wasn’t enough.  Last year net income fell by almost 19 percent at the firm and overall head count dropped by 144 to 1,657.
