JD Journal

Earlier this week we reported on a tip that Fulbright & Jaworski laid off at least 42 people in Texas and New York.

Now a JDJournal tipster tells us that the firm is laying off “a significant number” of staff today in Houston. The tipster does not have numbers, and isn’t sure if lawyers will be affected.

Thanks for the tip!
