The U.S. Department of Labor's Bureau of Labor Statistics released its highly anticipated job report on Friday, and the legal services industry didn't escape unscathed. The legal services industry in the United States shed some 7,000 jobs between December 2007 and December 2008 -- that includes not just lawyers on payroll, but paralegals, public relations specialists, secretaries and other positions. But while the legal market contracted in 2008, December did provide somewhat of a silver lining.
