Mid-tier law firm Middletons told five out of its eighteen Melbourne Articled Clerks today that their days at the firm
‘There wasn’t a dry eye among the devastated ACs who were informed that the GFC was to blame for their job losses; though their sadness was clearly infused with black anger that the same partners breaking this news will make tens of thousands of dollars over the next month while they line up for the dole.’
Two of the five distraught ACs were told that they would be able to relocate to the Sydney office to continue their career at Middletons, while the other three were told to be out of the building at the end of their Articles.
Like Deacons, the costs of admission for the redundant ACs will reportedly not be borne by the Middletons partnership. Disappointing indeed.
