I interviewed at a firm and they said they would like to bring me on but they need some time to align internally (could be weeks or months) since it’s a new area they’re developing. Then yesterday I was laid off from my current job so I’m a bit more in a rush now. What’s the best way to approach this? Do I let them know my situation or just wait otherwise they may lowball me or even see me as less of a qualified candidate after this news?

I would keep job searching and not wait on them. Not saying they won’t come through, but if they don’t, you haven’t wasted time.

Layoffs. Most big firms say they're sitting on a conservative pile of cash - which I believe is true - but work will obviously not return to pre-COVID levels in the short term, probably not even in the medium term. Are Biglaw layoffs coming?
