Judges
The U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the District of New Jersey is an active jurisdiction, but it's only grown more so as Am Law 50 firm Kirkland & Ellis has recently begun filing large-scale Chapter 11 bankruptcies in the district. Many view the firm as a market leader in the space and a possible precursor for other Big Law firms filing restructurings in the venue on behalf of their large debtor clients.
