Biography

Early life and education

Robert M. Wilson, Jr. was born in Little Rock, Arkansas on April 28, 1952. His father, Bob Wilson, a World War II veteran and Air Force pilot, spent a career in building and banking. In 1960, Robert’s brother, Charles Arthur Wilson, was born in Little Rock.

Wilson graduated from Hall High School in 1970 and enlisted in the Arkansas Air National Guard. After completing basic training, he enrolled at the University of Arkansas, where he pledged Kappa Sigma and lived in the fraternity house.

In June 1972, he moved to Washington, DC to work on the staff of Arkansas Senator John McClellan, where he was employed on the “Senator’s Only” elevator in the U.S. Capitol through “patronage” employment, and attended American University.

In the fall of 1973, Robert returned to the University of Arkansas and graduated with a BA, majoring in political science in 1975, although his degree was completed in August 1974, so that he could enter law school that same month. Robert began law school in August 1974, where he remained until graduation in the spring of 1977. Robert was a member of Phi Alpha Delta fraternity and served two terms as Treasurer of the Student Bar Association. In 1976, he was honorably discharged from the Arkansas Air National Guard having dutifully completed his term of enlistment. In July 1977, he unsuccessfully sat for the bar, passing it in the spring of 1978. Wilson & Associates was founded at that time.

Career

He was admitted to practice in 1991 to Texas and in 1996 to Tennessee. Mr. Wilson received his education from the University of Arkansas (B.A., 1974) and (J.D., 1977).

Mr. Wilson has acted as general counsel to the Arkansas Mortgage Bankers Association since 1984.

Mr. Wilson is also an accomplished author and public speaker. He authored Act 57 for the Arkansas Legislature of 1987 (the Arkansas Statutory Foreclosure Act), Act 15 for the Arkansas Legislative Extraordinary Session in 1988. Mr. Wilson is a Fellow of the American College of Mortgage Attorneys, Greater Little Rock Chamber of Commerce Leadership Institute (1987-1988), Pulaski County Bar Association, American Bar Association, Association of Trial Lawyers of America, Arkansas Trial Lawyers, and Mortgage Bankers Association of America.
