in addition to @dcp answer, this can be a lot easier by turning it into Generic Function...

internal static T GetInstanceField(object instance, string fieldName)
{
BindingFlags bindFlags = BindingFlags.Instance | BindingFlags.Public | BindingFlags.NonPublic
    | BindingFlags.Static;
FieldInfo field = type.GetField(fieldName, bindFlags);
return field.GetValue(instance);
}
