What you are basically seeing is the larger, badly run firms falling by the way side. Big is not beautiful any more and Just Costs was always a bad business model anyway. They will not be the last multi-office firm to go under this year. I am in the game and I hear rumours all of the time about other firms. This all started as a cottage industry 30/40 years ago and that is where it will end up - i.e., bespoke one man band experts rather than big firms with high overheads that they cannot sustain in this declining market.
