I want you to read this blog post written by Jordan Furlong at Law21. My prediction? You will be thinking about this post for a while. In Watch for falling dominoes, he takes a very sobering look at the perhaps perilous state of many firms, and the ramifications that economic pain in those firms will have for others in addition to lawyers. Just read it.
