Below are our top posts for October. As usual, we don’t include our regular features like This Week in Layoffs and The Month in Layoffs in the Top 10 posts for the month. A number of posts from the Laid Off Diarywould also make the ranking, but we exclude that too. Go to its dedicated page to catch up on the whole series.
10 – You Call This Hype? – We thought this would have ranked higher, considering the hype the original hype article got (and the amount of work that went into analyzing pretty much every associate arrival and departure at Nixon Peabody over the past nine months or so).
9 – Bad Blood Building Between Wachtell and Paul Weiss – Paul Weiss has become quite a thorn in Wachtell’s side lately.
8 – Sjoblom Resigned from Proskauer – The Proskauer partner embroiled in the Stanford Capital mess went off quietly.
7 – Layoffs at Microsoft – We did the math on GC Brad Smith’s comments about expense reductions.
6 – Yellowstone Resort Bankruptcy Items on Auction – Must See to Believe – The Blixseths have kept a lot of lawyers busy with their failed development and divorce.
5 – Did We Correctly Predict the Impending Layoffs? – Yes, sort of – Akin Gump was one of our top three choices in the original analysis, then laid off staff in September. We connect the dots.
4 – Goldman Engagement Letter Screwup – Schadenfreude drives lots of pageviews, apparently.
3 – London Lawyer Blew Severance on Coke – Ditto.
2 – The Wildman Harrold Rescission Letter – Ditto. Getting the theme yet?
1 – Layoffs in the Global 100 – We broke down all of the layoffs at the world’s 100 top law firms, complete with charts.
