Robert Mihara​

Robert Mihara graduated from West Point in 1999 with a Bachelor of Science degree in International History and a commission as a second lieutenant in the US Army. Robert went on to serve more than twenty years active duty, including deployments to Iraq and Afghanistan. He retired from the military in 2019 as a lieutenant colonel and immediately enrolled at St. Mary’s Univ. School of Law where Robert earned his law degree in 2022.

As a law student, Robert focused on public interest work, interning with the Public Defender Service for the District of Columbia and the Federal Public Defender office in San Antonio. He also served as a legal representative of low-income tenants facing eviction during the COVID-19 pandemic at the Center for Legal and Social Justice.

As a law student, Robert was selected as a 2020 Pat Tillman Scholar for his commitment to public service. He was recognized by St. Mary’s School of Law with the Dean’s Award, Pro Bono and Public Service Award, and Educating for Justice Award.

Robert is a member of the Texas Bar College, National Academy of Elder Law Attorneys (NAELA), ElderCounsel, National Low Income Housing Coalition (NLIHC), Alliance Francaise of San Antonio, and West Point Society of South Texas.

In addition to his private law practice, he continues to serve his local community through pro bono service with the San Antonio Legal Services Association and the San Antonio Hope Center.

Robert is married to Mary, a fellow West Point graduate. Robert and Mary are the parents of two adult children.

From the Law Office of Robert Mihara:

Occasionally, an opportunity arrives that you cannot pass up.

On May 1, 2023, I accepted a one-year legal fellowship with the San Antonio Legal Services Association (SA-LSA) to help expand their housing and homelessness program. Tenant rights and homelessness are issues that have long been close to my heart. And so, I didn't hesitate to accept an offer to help those facing life without shelter.

Because of my responsibilities as legal fellow, I will not be accepting clients for extended representation until after March 2024. To be clear, this fellowship is a pause rather than a departure from the elder law work that I care so much about.

I look forward to helping special needs families and veterans plan and prepare for their future again when I return to full time solo practice next Spring.
