On this special episode, we are joined by the leaders of three important national property rights organizations: Dana Berliner, Senior Vice President and Litigation Director for the Institute for Justice; James Burling, Vice President of Legal Affairs for Pacific Legal Foundation, and Leslie Fields, Executive Director of the Owners’ Counsel of America. We learn how each got their start in the field of eminent domain and property rights, the landmark cases that have shaped their careers, and the issues and cases that are on the horizon at each of their organizations.
