Overview

About Robert W. Hughes Jr.

I have been in practice since 1992. My practice primarily focuses on business and probate litigation. I have handled numerous appeals to the Georgia Court of Appeals and the Georgia Supreme Court for my clients.

My firm is a small firm specializing in superior service to our clients. Prior to practicing law, I owned a large printing, publishing company that I sold.

My team consists of two lawyers and a paralegal who has worked with me for many years. We are technologically savvy and communicate with our clients via email where possible.

Through the other attorney in my office, we handle domestic matters as well as other civil litigation.
