Roth which soon evolved into a business buying, renovating, and selling historic properties as a tax shelter for wealthy investors.  IRS regulations changed in the mid-eighties, and the firm collapsed when investors sued the owners for fraud and securities violations. Sekulow and Roth filed for Chapter 7 bankruptcy relief in 1987, with Sekulow listing $13 million in liabilities and $638,000 in assets, and leaving "a trail of angry investors and employees."
  In 1987 Sekulow became general counsel for Jews for Jesus. In 1988 he founded the nonprofit group Christian Advocates Serving Evangelism (CASE) whose president he is and whose board members are him, his wife, and their two sons.
  In 1992, Sekulow became the director of the ACLJ, where he was chief counsel and principal officer in 2018.  In the early 1990s he also joined the faculty at Regent University Law School.
  Sekulow is half-owner of the for-profit professional corporation Constitutional Litigation and Advocacy Group, P.C., incorporated in 2003, whose governor and executive officer is Roth.  From 2011 to 2016, the ACLJ paid the group $23 million, "its largest outside expense."
  Sekulow owns Regency Productions, the company that produces his radio show and was paid $11.3 million by the two charities for production services between 2000 and 2017.
  Sekulow hosts Jay Sekulow Live!, a syndicated daily radio program broadcast on terrestrial radio, and XM and Sirius satellite radios. This live call-in program focuses on legal and legislative topics. Sekulow is the host of ACLJ This Week, a weekly television news program broadcast on Trinity Broadcasting Network and Daystar.
