Comment

Anon 10:46 I suggest you do your research. Contemporaneous statistics published in The Lawyer show that betwen 2005-2012, in percentage terms the number of partners at Dickinson Dees dropped by 17% and the number of solicitors fell by over 69%! In 2005, Dickie Dees had 699 solicitors and 64 partners (as set out in http://www.thelawyer.com/firm-profile-dickinson-dees/115309.article) By 2012, Dickinson Dees has 215 lawyers and 53 partners (from this years UK 200 rankings). It surprised me too! The only other explanation would have been that in 2005 the PR team were exagerating the number of fee earners they had. However that's surely unlikely.
