Commercial banks, investment banks, brokerages, and other
financial institutions spend an inordinate amount of time on due diligence:
researching a potential debtor’s financial history and quantifying the amount
of risk of a particular investment or loan. Much of this diligence can be
automated.
There are hundreds of thousands of bankruptcies filed every
year. Banks and other financiers use Docket Alarm to research personal
and commercial bankruptcy records. Financial institutions can easily see if
a potential corporate customer is solvent or has declared bankruptcy in the
past. Using Docket Alarm’s API, searches
can be automated, leading to an enormous savings in efficiency over manual
searching.

We've been busy at Docket Alarm evaluating your product improvement requests and implementing time-saving changes while conducting your legal research. One new small but powerful refinement that will help you narrow your search is an ability to filter by title. Here is what we mean.
When you perform a search for say, "Apple v. Samsung" you get results for all dockets containing these keywords anywhere in the docket text. While this type of broad search may help you start with a bird's eye overview, sometimes you may want to narrow the results to just docket titles that contain this text.
So where is this feature located? In the search bar you'll notice a gear icon just before the court drop down menu.
