Speaking to Lawyers Weekly today, Poulsen confirmed that no cuts had been made in the Perth office, and that the office was still recruiting in some teams.

"There's been a whole lot of stuff in the legal press this week about Minters making people redundant and then advertising places in the Perth office. We haven't made people redundant [in the Perth office] so we're still strategically recruiting - I'd love to clear up that mix-up," he said.
