Quiero pasar el nombre del atributo y devolver el valor. Esto será en una utilidad genérica y no sabrá el tipo de atributo.

Actualizar Este es el código de trabajo real si alguien necesita hacer esto. Necesitaba una forma de hacer que el código del núcleo analice los atributos sin saber qué eran.

public void LoadPropertiesToGrid(BaseGridPropertyModel model)
{
    foreach (PropertyInfo prop in ReflectionUtil.FindPublicPropeties(model))
    {
        object editTyp = ReflectionUtil.GetPropertyAttributes(prop, "EditorType"); 
        object rowIdx = ReflectionUtil.GetPropertyAttributes(prop, "ColIndex");
        object name = ReflectionUtil.GetPropertyAttributes(prop, "Name");
        object visible = ReflectionUtil.GetPropertyAttributes(prop, "Visible");
        ConfigureColumn((string) name, (int) rowIdx, (bool) visible, (string) editTyp);
     }
}
