Toys "R" Us Bankruptcy - Here's the Research You Need

If you or your clients have exposure to Toys "R" Us, these are cases that you'll want to research.

Familiarity with precedent from cases filed in the same jurisdiction, by the same counsel, and/or by companies in the same industry is absolutely critical in developing a successful investment or litigation strategy and drafting the most effective pleadings in complex bankruptcy cases. That's why we thought that the following lists of selected precedential cases relevant to the Toys "R" Us bankruptcy might be of particular interest.

Law firms and investment funds that are active in the largest, most complex bankruptcy cases nationwide rely upon our Precedent Research System to develop their strategies and draft their pleadings. In fact, our clients represent the debtors and/or official committees in the majority of the largest bankruptcies filed every year. 

Why? Partly because our database covers over 2,500 of the largest bankruptcy cases and over 3.7 million docket entries. But, perhaps more importantly, also because our system allows for uniquely efficient and effective research:

  • Search for relevant cases using 14 different categories, such as jurisdiction, industry, size, lead debtor and/or committee counsel, and whether the cases were prenegotiated or prepackaged.
  • Within any search, find relevant docket entries quickly using our proprietary docket filtering which allows you to limit the docket by document topics (asset sales, DIP financing, automatic stay, etc.) and document types (motions, objections, orders, etc.), in addition to by docket text search, date and docket number.

No need to take our word for it - get more information and sign up for a trial.
