The idea for the podcast was born from the ACREL History Project [initiated by Morty Fisher], and the initial episodes will be a series of interviews with ACREL's charter members and other influential leaders from the early years of the College. In addition to preserving ACREL's history, the podcasts will explore how real estate law has evolved over time, forecast where the practice is going, and understand the impact that ACREL and its Fellows have had on the industry as a whole. DISCLAIMER: All opinions expressed in the podcasts solely represent the views of the program participants, and are not necessarily the views of ACREL, any affiliated law firm or other related entity.
