Ex-Hogan Lovells partner jailed for three years over £1.27m fraud

This is a sad case but no-one has mentioned the 3500 chargeable hours year. Working under that pressure is bound to lead to distortions in behaviour. A lesson for many perhaps - the greed element is not the theft but the pressure of City firms to earn more and more, sums that would have been regarded as ridiculous onlyta few years ago. He was apparently the model of what a senior partner should be!
