Top notch criminal defense attorney

Cody is a very competent and well-versed criminal defense attorney. His professional and no-nonsense approach gives you the confidence of knowing you are in good hands. Very responsive and on-the-ball. If you find yourself in the unfortunate position of needing a defense attorney, I can not recommen...d Cody highly enough.

BEST Defense Attorney

Cody Villanon is everything you're looking for. I am grateful for the opportunity to write this review. "God-sent" are the two words that come to mind to describe Cody Villanon. From the consultation to the closing argument, everything was handled with extreme care, proficiency, and excellenc...e. Cody's knowledge, professionalism, and attention to detail were exceptional. Throughout the nearly 12-month process, Cody was consistently responsive, patient, and empathetic. He responds to emails, phone calls and text mesaages in record time. He was extremely communicative and reassuring with his selfless sharing of information relating to the law. Cody went above and beyond, fighting to the very end, without clarity as to what final outcome would be. Despite the fact that he lacked witnesses and testimonies to bolster his case, Cody's dedication, expertise and extraordinary efforts exceeded all expectations. All charges against our son were dropped, and he was found NOT GUILTY... Praise the Lord!!! Cody is without a doubt the best lawyer in town. I would strongly recommend him to anyone in Virginia who needs a lawyer who will believe in them and fight for them!

The Best Criminal Attorney

I hired Mr Cody Villalon to handle my criminal case. Mr Villalon was very straight forward, respectful, and honest from the start. Hands down Cody Villalon is the best attorney. My criminal charge was dismissed. The only attorney you ever need is Mr Cody Villalon. Thank you Mr Villalon.
