Ilya Somin is a law professor who writes a lot on ED-reform.
As far as action, the Institute for Justice looks for cases they think they can make with, and lobby for legal reform.

You'll find they both come at things from a libertarian direction, but neither are rabid.
On top of everything else, abuses of eminent-domain, civil forfeiture, and so forth really, really bother me.
In principle, I unconditionally support the right of the polis (the government) to do what needs to be done. My own city basically used extralegal means to wrestle numerous blighted, condemned properties away from a trust. The creators of the trust were dead and no one was left to negotiate.
But hot damn these levers of power get abused.
