Newly-merged firm A&O Shearman is to cut 10% of its equity partnership, close its Johannesburg office and end its consulting practice as part of major post-merger changes over the coming months.
The reduction to its global equity partnership, which currently numbers roughly 800, will come between now and April 2025 but the firm will not stop it making lateral hires in that time, it said.
