not necessarily no. They just announced layoffs generally.

Besides the partners leaving I dont know if any group is in trouble - probably associate who did not go along with departed partners. but they said the layoffs were to address cash problems.

Nobody except Dewey partners know exactly what is the problem bro. A law firm doesn't open its book to the public. Suffice it to say that they have a cash flow problem and cutting associates/staff will save them about $15 million. For a firm of their size I am not sure if this is sufficient.

no one knows at this point, what partners do is a secret, especially when they are making plans to jump ship.

i think there is a critical mass that if they leave it will be bad bad news. they are not there yet, but if they cant pay the partners, they will be.

Also associates have no received bonuses yet, its been a long time since December 31.

Dewey had been a shit hole for a very long time. Ironic as at one point it was the best firm in the country (no joke). Too bad they brought down the BEEF with them as they had some interesting niche groups.

The biggest issue is that most associates at the firm are so TTT it will be hard to land on their feet.
