About Attorney, Robert Whitt
Robert, Charlotte Attorney, has been engaged in the practice of Law for over 40 years in the same town of Mt Holly, North Carolina. He has experience in almost all areas of the General Practice of Law. Rather than handle every case that may require his services, Robert has begun to limit some areas of his practice.
At this point in time his practice concentrates on Estate Planning, Probate Administration and Elder Law. While he still does take some other cases the majority of the practice concerns these areas. It is important to have an attorney who has a breadth of knowledge in all areas of the Law and who can relate to the complexities that occur when areas in the Law overlap.
