Currently, Attorney Kohler specialize in all family law issues.  His litigation philosophy differs significantly from most other attorney's practicing family law.  In short, if you want to avoid the time, expense, and uncertainty of going to trial, PREPARE YOUR CASE AS IF IT IS.  You cannot negotiate from a position of weakness.  In addition, more than any other attorney he has ever opposed, Mr. Kohler employs technology to control your legal fees and prepare your case.  This web site is a good example.  Given the cost of litigating a case, your limited financial resources should be used more for covering court appearances and moving your case, and less for chasing paper, performing redundant work, and paying support staff to when they are not working on your case.
