Capsticks is making up to 10 lawyers redundant.
The fee-earners losing their jobs are all in the public healthcare practice of the medical negligence specialist. In 2013 Capsticks raided DAC Beachcroft for five healthcare partners, but a source tells RollOnFriday's the move "has not paid off". Clearly not.
Capsticks isn't a huge outfit, with a headcount of approximately 160 solicitors, and the redundancy round looks set to be the firm's biggest cull since it threw out that partner for fiddling expenses.
In a statement the firm said that "the healthcare sector has been undergoing major structural changes over the last two years, and some of our clients are under considerable financial pressure." As a result, "unfortunately, these factors have impacted on certain areas of our work, and the staff working in those areas". But there may be some hope, maybe. A spokeswomen added that "where possible we will redeploy these individuals within the firm".
