Funny how GD&C didn’t mention the number of attorneys they laid off on March 27th. They only mentioned that they laid off 36 staff when, in fact, they laid off about 65 people firmwide (including attorneys), but they kept that quiet. I guess that would be bad for their reputation, especially after they claimed 1 month earlier that there would be no layoffs.
