Stoel Rives, a Portland, Oregon-based Am Law 200 firm that employs nearly 800 people, announced Wednesday that it will shed 17 administrative staff as part of a strategic plan revamp its operations.

“We’re currently in the midst of implementing our strategic plan, which focuses on proactively modernizing the way we run our firm,” said an internal memo by Anchorage-based managing partner James Torgerson, who last year assumed leadership of Stoel Rives. “Updating our staffing model to meet the demands of today’s legal market reality is part of that, so we’ve laid off 17 of our administrative staff.”
