Lord Bissell was at the top of the game for what they did in Chicago (Insurance/Reinsurance), but otherwise second tier at best. Back before I went to law school I was a brownnoser for the development office of a law school in Chicago and, true to form, there was considerable support from many at that second tier Chicago firm for our second tier Chicago school. But they were all gross scroungers for recognition.
While I have not heard about an impending demise, it would surprise me. Who would these people have to fight with if they broke up?
