How This Year's Supreme Court Session May Be the Juiciest Ever
James Goodnow
Legal & Political Commentator
Fennemore Craig
"SCOTUS opened Monday with a bang – the first full term with Trump's appointee, Neil Gorsuch, on the bench – and even Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg has predicted that this session will be monumental."
Goodnow, author of the book "Motivating Millennials," is a nationally recognized legal and political commentator. A Harvard Law School graduate, Goodnow was featured on the cover of the American Lawyer, one of the largest circulated legal publications in the U.S. (March 2016). Having handled some of the highest profile cases in the country, he has offered legal commentary for CNN, "Good Morning America," "Today," The Wall Street Journal, Washington Post, People Magazine and others. He is based in Phoenix.

Tax Reform Plan Makes C Corporations More Appealing
Nathan Smithson
Tax Lawyer
Jackson Walker LLP in Dallas
"The reduction under the proposed Republican tax reform plan of the top corporate tax rate from 35 percent to 20 percent could certainly lead to a renewed interest in C corporations. An investment in a corporation is subject to two levels of federal income taxation -- once at the corporate level, and then again when a distribution is made out of the corporation to the investor. The proposed 20 percent corporate tax rate would make this investment far more palatable. The plan also lowers rates for partnerships and LLCs. However, investors and business owners who do not want to subject themselves to the more complex partnership tax rules -- including paying taxes on their share of entity-level income -- may now want to convert their entities to corporations. An original investment in stock of a qualifying small business corporation can be sold tax-free if held for five or more years. A drop from a 35 percent to a 20 percent rate may make this type of investment a no-brainer for investors looking to minimize their overall taxes on corporate income."
