This episode of the Nomad Futurist podcast, co-hosts Nabeel Mahmood and Phillip Koblence welcome Jeff Moerdler, a powerhouse in digital infrastructure law and the head of Real Estate and Communications at Mintz. Known for his sharp insights, signature humor, and the legendary “Mintz Mince,” Jeff takes us on a journey that began with a single rooftop satellite deal for American Express and evolved into decades of shaping the legal backbone of the data center and telecom industries.

A third-generation attorney and proud Bronx native, Jeff charted his own path by venturing into real estate law — only to find himself at the forefront of a rapidly emerging telecom landscape.

“Hope for the best. Plan for the worst. You have to have a plan B for everything,”

he shares — a mantra that’s guided him through industry shifts, tech booms, bankruptcies, and the rise of AI.

Jeff recalls how his early experience writing roof rights and riser agreements evolved into building legal frameworks for everything from fiber and DAS to today’s AI compute needs. He reflects on the surge of powered land deals and the legal challenges around alternative energy sources:

“I think nuclear is the future of the data center industry — but it’s not today’s resource. It’s the next generation.”

Despite the complexity and constant change, Jeff remains optimisitc for digital infrastructure.

“The industry isn’t going away — AI is just the next expansion point in the evolution of data infrastructure.”

This episode is a must-listen for anyone interested in the legal foundations that keep the digital world running.
