J.P. Mohler is Co-Founder of General Legal, an AI-native law firm that provides fast, high-quality contract drafting, review, and negotiation for growth-stage companies. General Legal was accepted into Y Combinator's Winter 2026 batch and offers flat-fee commercial legal services that save founders hundreds to thousands of dollars per contract.

J.P. studied iOS and Android development before attending Harvard Law School, where he served as President of the Harvard Law and Technology Society and Editor on the Harvard Journal of Law and Technology. He practiced startup and venture capital law at Cooley LLP and WilmerHale for 3 years, representing startups and VCs in Palo Alto and Washington, D.C.

After law practice, J.P. became a Senior Machine Learning and Applied Research Scientist at Casetext (acquired by Thomson Reuters), where he built cutting-edge AI prototypes for legal use cases. His projects included the first known large-scale AI application in a federal investigation and the first AI tool adopted by a judicial system for appellate review.

J.P. co-founded General Legal with Javed Qadruddin (Harvard Law, Fenwick & West) and Ryan Walker (former CTO of Casetext), combining deep legal expertise with AI product development experience. The firm turns around contracts in hours instead of days and provides practical, real-time guidance from experienced attorneys.

General Legal has onboarded over 20 growth-stage companies since announcing its private preview and offers the first contract review free until demo day. The firm eliminates billable hours and uses AI to provide contract services at a fraction of traditional law firm costs while maintaining high quality through expert attorney oversight.
