Review
...scathing. - The Kansas City Star ""...a well-researched, highly accessible look at troubling practices in corporate bankruptcy law."" - Booklist ""In a searing indictment of the U.S. Bankruptcy Court system, Lynn LoPucki paints a very unflattering picture of the results of bankruptcy court competition for big cases that began in the 1980s. Courting Failure is backed by years of research, hard numbers from LoPucki's web-based research database, and anecdotal evidence that should make some bankruptcy professionals, particularly bankruptcy judges, squirm."" - Turnarounds & Workouts Newswire
