About Robert W. Hughes

Robert W. Hughes Jr. built his legal basis at Georgia State University College of Law, earning a J.D. in 1992 after earlier studies at Florida State University, where he completed a B.S. in Hotel and Restaurant Administration with a minor in Finance in 1975. He started better schooling at Darton College, receiving an A.A. in Business Administration in 1973. Those early choices—enterprise and hospitality observed by law—formed how he approaches client things: practical, detail-oriented, and attentive to the everyday worries people convey into an attorney’s office.

Hughes entered private practice in the early Nineteen Nineties. He was a partner in Hughes, Kaplan & Gravante in 1992 and later in Hughes & Kaplan in 1995. He based Hughes & Associates, P.C. in 2002 and reorganized the practice as Robert W. Hughes & Associates, P.C. in 2009, the place he stays the owner. Over more than 3 decades he has handled things that span probate, senior law, and related civil disputes. He has additionally been active in local bar and volunteer organizations since the start of his profession.

Court admissions mark milestones in Hughes’s expert path. He have become a member of the State Bar of Georgia in 1992 and was licensed to practice earlier than the highest court of Georgia and the Court of Appeals of Georgia in 1993. In 2006 he gained admission to practice before the highest court of the United States. Those admissions accompany an extended list of expert memberships, which includes the American Bar Association and the Georgia Trial Lawyers Association.

Hughes’s interest in issues affecting older adults is mirrored in his lengthy-term affiliation with elder law friends. He joined the National Academy of Elder Law Lawyers in 2014 and continues that affiliation. Since the early 1990s he has additionally been active in Gwinnett County bar teams, the Gwinnett Pro Bono Association, and the Atlanta Volunteer Lawyers Foundation, where he has volunteered time and assets to community legal needs.

The workplace of Robert W. Hughes & Associates is located on the second one floor of the BB&T Building. His practice continues to handle estate administration and elder law matters, alongside with civil litigation and estate-associated problems, serving clients in Georgia and acting in state and federal courts as required.
