Every day my e-mail is filled with resumes of laid-off attorneys. My phone rings off the hook as law firm after law firm seeks help to deal with client demands for lower rates or fee deals — that is, if the client has not gone out of business entirely. For me, stuck in the middle as a legal recruiter and HR management consultant for 30 years, it is a time of despair and delight.
I have worked through three major legal recessions, and so have a certain survivor’s perspective about the current maelstrom. All this blood, guts and agony is a good thing if we use it to the profession’s advantage.
