Bird has filed a series of motions to ensure a smooth transition into bankruptcy, including provisions for employee wages and benefits. Legal counsel is provided by Berger Singerman LLP, with financial and restructuring advice from Teneo Capital LLC. Additional details about the proceedings are available on the company's claims agent's website.
