If attribute value returns null or empty, try this.

     string x="<node1 id='12345'><node2 Name='John'></node2><node3 name='abc'></node3></node1>";
        XmlDocument xml = new XmlDocument();
        xml.LoadXml(x);
        var node = xml.GetElementsByTagName("node3");
        xml = new XmlDocument();
        xml.LoadXml(nodes[0].OuterXml);
        XmlElement root = xml.DocumentElement;
        String requiredValue = root.GetAttribute("name");  
    returns "abc";
