Reduction in Legal Jobs in September

Looks like technology, particularly in e-discovery,  is a key driver in the disintermediation of these jobs. According statistics cited in the article, e-discovery tools can now do the job of what required 500 lawyers to do in years past. That may be true, but I do not know the empirical source or support for that assertion.
