Robert Kohler, Founder of Kohler Law Group

Founder

How does Kohler Law Group match each business with an attorney?

Robert Kohler founded Kohler Law Group in 2002 after seeing businesses pay large-firm hourly rates for routine but essential legal work. He built the firm as one of the world's early fully virtual law firms, pairing lower overhead with senior legal experience.

Robert is also an entrepreneur who helped launch and grow SiteMail, MrSwap, and Castfire through acquisition. That operating background shapes how he listens to a company's needs and matches each client with the right Kohler Law attorney.
