Couhig Partners' founding partner, Rob Couhig, practiced law at one of the largest firms in the South for thirty years before deciding that a smaller, more specialized firm could better serve businesses. Rob assembled a group of like-minded lawyers from top firms who were similarly frustrated with the constraints of their practices. Each lawyer at Couhig Partners shares Rob's vision and passion for helping businesses realize their full potential and achieve success. Additionally, the lawyers at Couhig Partners are business owners, investors, and entrepreneurs themselves. As both lawyers and business people, our attorneys are in a unique position to give our clients practical advice, as we have personally dealt with many of the same issues our clients face.
