What happens when Congress passes a $3.8 trillion deficit-increasing bill by just one vote while promising fiscal responsibility? Blake and David break down the "Big Beautiful Bill" and reveal who really benefits—spoiler alert: it's not the middle class or the national debt. They explore QuickBooks' aggressive new AI agents rollout with price hikes up to 17%, examine why Tesla's CPA CFO earned $139 million in one year, and uncover how tariff-stressed businesses are weaponizing invoice rejections to manage cash flow.

Welcome to episode 278 of the Grow Your Law Firm podcast, hosted by Ken Hardison. In this episode, Ken sits down with Jeff Zigman, Co-Founder and CTO of TRUEclaims, a groundbreaking platform transforming the way personal injury law firms handle vehicle damage claims.  With over 11 years of experience as a CTO and tech entrepreneur and 13 years as a business analyst, Jeff has led the design and development of more than 300 software solutions—16 of which he built entirely solo. A 23-year martial arts veteran and devoted family man, Jeff is married with two young children. His resilience and dedication are reflected in his work: TRUEclaims succeeded where 19 other software companies failed over a 15-year stretch. Under Jeff's leadership, TRUEclaims has rapidly grown to serve over 100 personal injury firms, turning a frustrating and often-neglected part of the claims process into a streamlined, value-generating system. TRUEclaims empowers law firms by transforming vehicle damage claims into a seamless process and a powerful marketing asset, helping clients recover thousands—and even tens of thousands—of dollars more, faster. What you'll learn about in this episode:   1. Streamlined Report Generation for Faster Case Resolution - TRUEclaims software enables law firms to quickly generate diminished value and fair market value reports, saving time and improving accuracy. - Reports that once took hours now take minutes, accelerating case resolution and client settlements. 2. Increased Client Compensation Through Accurate Valuations - Accurate valuations from TRUEclaims often raise client compensation by thousands of dollars. - Law firms gain stronger leverage in insurance negotiations, leading to higher settlements and client satisfaction. 3. Competitive Edge in Client Acquisition and Retention - Integrating TRUEclaims into intake processes positions law firms as leaders in property damage claims. - Offering the software as a standard service helps firms stand out and attract more clients. 4. Flexible and Cost-Effective Pricing Model - Reports cost between $220 and $300, with bulk discounts available for high-volume firms. - Law firms have flexible billing options, including passing costs to clients or offering it as a value-added service. 5. Proven Impact on Settlement Outcomes - TRUEclaims has helped secure major settlement increases, including $49,000 for a Rolls Royce and $9,100 for a Ford F250. - Firms using the software achieve faster and larger settlements, benefiting both clients and attorneys.   Resources:  https://trueclaims.io/attorneys?partner=PILMMA   Additional Resources:    https://www.pilmma.org/aiworkshop https://www.pilmma.org/the-mastermind-effect https://www.pilmma.org/resources https://www.pilmma.org/mastermind

In this episode of the GovDiscovery AI podcast, host Mike Shanley discusses the 2026 discretionary budget request released by the White House. The conversation covers key highlights of the budget, including significant cuts and increases across various federal agencies, and the strategic implications for federal partners. The episode emphasizes the importance of aligning proposals with the administration's priorities and staying informed about changes in federal funding. Takeaways The 2026 discretionary budget request was released on May 2, 2025. The budget emphasizes a shift to centralized mission-focused federal spending. Contractors may face fewer opportunities for larger contracts. The Department of Defense received a significant budget increase. The Department of Homeland Security also saw a substantial budget increase. The State Department faced an over 80% budget cut. The term 'consolidate' was frequently used in the budget request. Firms should align their proposals with administration priorities. Staying updated on presidential actions is crucial for federal partners. GovDiscovery AI offers deeper research for federal capture pursuits.

It was a bad week to compromise your values. ----- Perkins Coie secured a permanent injunction against the Trump administration's retaliatory executive order. Meanwhile, firms that balked at putting up a fight against the illegal attacks have seen the White House drag them into police brutality cases and law schools start openly talking about students taking their talents elsewhere. And then the harshest cut of all -- a deep pocketed client bailed on a collaborator firm to give business to a firm standing up to Trump. Who could've predicted except anyone who ever watched Star Wars. Also we talk about California's latest bar exam debacle and the White House's threat against Amal Clooney.

President Trump has been pushing the Federal Reserve to cut interest rates, writing on social media last month that the central bank has been "TOO LATE AND WRONG" in holding off on further reductions. Now, the Fed is set to meet on Wednesday to make its next rate decision — but Mr. Trump may need to wait longer to get his cuts.~This episode is sponsored by iTrust Capital~iTrustCapital | Get $100 Funding Reward + No Monthly Fees when you sign up using our custom link! ➜ https://bit.ly/iTrustPaul00:15 Sponsor: iTrust Capital00:52 Polymarket: Fed decision in May odds01:29 Trueflation01:57 Recession odds still high02:20 CNBC: Stocks are not priced in for recession04:00 Fear & Greed05:12 What could move markets06:35 Altseason soon?07:30 Clock is ticking08:40 Cascading effects on workers10:00 Firms response to tariffs10:31 Temu pulls google ads11:14 Port of L.A.

Amid excitement around advancements in space exploration, there are unresolved issues concerning the role of private firms.

In Q1 2025, private equity firms saw a 45% rise in deal volume compared to the previous year. However, rising trade tensions are creating caution among investors.

Many students at elite law schools end up working in Big Law for at least a spell. The Trump administration's attacks on the industry, and deals with some of its top players, are making the choice of where to start their careers much more complicated. Students are stuck between two very uncertain options: go to a firm that struck a deal with the White House, despite concerns about a lack of principles; or, go to a firm that's fighting Trump in court, despite concerns about the firm remaining financial stable. Bloomberg News reporter Claire Ballentine wrote about how students are making these tough choices and she speaks with Bloomberg Law editor Jessie Kokrda Kamens on this episode of our podcast, On The Merits. Ballentine talks about how some law students are organizing to help each other make a decision and how the massive debt loads many of them shoulder are factoring in.
