Jordan puts together the outline. I always give him credit, and make it clear that all the mistakes are his.” - Richard Pomp [05:47]“Part of Professor Pomp’s genius is the ability to break it down to everybody, right? To the reasonable person, common man, common woman, common person. That’s what his genius is is being able to take our complex, most complex stuff and say ‘Here’s how it is,’ and use general things found in a kitchen to explain it to a judge so they can understand it.” - Jordan Goodman [20:43]“If the law doesn’t make sense anymore, you either got to expand it to include everybody or get rid of it from a policy perspective.” - Jordan Goodman [25:20] Relevant Links:Jordan Goodman on LinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/jordanmgoodmanHMB Legal Counsel: hmblaw.comRichard Pomp: law.uconn.edu/person/richard-pompSubscribe on your favorite podcast app:https://saltovation.captivate.fm/listenhttps://linktr.ee/taxops Follow Us on Socialshttps://www.linkedin.com/company/taxops-llchttps://www.youtube.com/channel/UCMB1ZQNGXM_F777SIEl8Vjw Talk To A Tax Advocate TodayTaxOps Website:
