Retired
RETIRED JUNE of 2024.
After almost 46 years of practice, John Archie officially retired from White & Allen, P.A. to focus his time on family and enjoying all life has to offer. While his retirement is well-deserved, the impact that John has had on the firm throughout his career is undeniable. When he graduated from law school in 1978, John started working as a young associate with what was then White, Allen, Hooten, Hodges, & Hines, P.A. His intellect and leadership skills were an integral part of the development and growth of the firm we are today, White & Allen, P.A.
John’s area of practice concentrated in employment, construction, and health care law. He was an effective litigator, trusted by many people and businesses to help resolve their legal problems. And as someone who held a leadership role within the firm, John was a great mentor to the young attorneys who joined White & Allen. The firm owes John a debt of gratitude that can never be paid, but we will forever be grateful for all he invested in us.
