Kuhn, Doyle and Kuhn, P.C. was founded by Bob Kuhn in 1970 after he had served as Travis County's Justice of the Peace.
Since that time it has grown to 5 attorneys and 6 support staff, a size which allows individual attention to each client's case, while providing the resources necessary for handling complex litigation. The firm has elected to limit its practice to a few areas to ensure quality service to all of its clients. The practice focuses on injury and death claims, elder law, criminal defense, real estate, probate, contract, and family law matters. Our attorneys are active in the wider community through charitable organizations, volunteer activities, fund raising events, and efforts to promote the health and well being of those in the Central Texas area.

Kuhn, Doyle and Kuhn, P.C. offices at the corner of West Eighth and Nueces Streets, in Gilfillan Place, which was designed by Austin architect Charles H. Page, the first licensed architect in Texas. The home was built in 1905 for William L. Gilfillan, one of the founders of the Austin National Bank.
