The International Society of Primerus Law Firms™ published a piece in their Fall Paradigm magazine featuring Krevolin & Horst associate Jackie Caroe, titled “Anti-Money Laundering Act Can Catch Unsuspecting Businesses in Its Web, Says Pair of Atlanta Attorneys.” In the piece, Jackie and former Krevolin & Horst associate John Wisiackas discuss the Corporate Transparency Act (CTA) as a key tool in combating money laundering and explain how the CTA mandates certain businesses to report beneficial ownership information to the U.S. Department of Treasury’s FinCEN. They emphasize the importance of understanding these requirements to avoid penalties and ensure compliance. Read the full article here: https://lnkd.in/eeAjapyY

“Among the 10 most consequential of the country’s Founding Fathers – known as the ‘gallery of greats’– only three were not lawyers: George Washington, Benjamin Franklin, and George Mason. Over the course of the last 248 years, American voters have elected 27 attorneys to ‘preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States’ as president. “Many of the country’s leading legal minds now see the looming emergence of authoritarianism in the upcoming presidential election as an existential threat to American democracy and the rule of law. “‘America’s democracy has been teetering on a knife’s edge since January 6, 2021,’ said former federal appeals court Judge J. Michael Luttig in a recent PBS interview. ‘I believe this election coming up is a test of America’s commitment to its own democracy and to the rule of law.’” Read more in the Primerus Paradigm here: #Primerus #WorldsFinestLawFirms #Paradigm #Democracy #America #Election

“The civil defense attorney with Goodman Allen Donnelly in Norfolk, Va., makes the observation based on personal experience teaching in a classroom. After graduating at the age of 20 from New York University (NYU) in 2004 with a degree in international relations, Pitzen joined Teach for America, an organization that recruits college graduates to teach in under-resourced schools. She taught middle school in Miami for one year and then elementary school in inner-city Atlanta for a second year. She remembers the weight she felt from the responsibility of trying to teach second graders to read. “‘I think teaching was the hardest thing I’ve ever done,’ she says. ‘We certainly do not pay teachers enough money in this country. They do not get enough respect. It is hard. It’s also incredibly rewarding. It is one of the most rewarding things I’ve ever done.’” Read more about Thea Pitzen of Goodman Allen Donnelly in her feature article in the Primerus Weekly: #Primerus #WorldsFinestLawFirms #WeeklyFeature
