Professional Attorney

I had to find an attorney in short notice and I had contacted Law Office of Landon Villava. He responded very quickly and took time to understand my case he is well-spoken and asked questions to show he was empathetic to my situation. He is a very professional attorney who has a heart. I fully recomm...end him if you are needing a good family attorney.

A Powerful Ally and Friend

Juvenile dependency proceedings can be emotional and complex, and there are many parties and interests involved. I cannot express enough how important and valuable it has been to have someone like Landon on my side. He is incredibly smart and experienced with the various courts and will not hesitate ...to fight for your interests. He knew when I was vulnerable and took care to provide honest recommendations that were tough for me to hear, yet respected my wishes when it went against his advice. For every court appearance, Landon arrived early and well-prepared, and he made sure I understood the process, what my options were, and what the general disposition was in the courtroom. He was always careful to ask me what I wanted first before making a recommendation, and then went into court to passionately advocate on my behalf. Throughout the entire year-long process, I never felt that he was busy taking care of other clients. He was extremely accessible and responsive by phone, text, and email, and I truly felt like he had dedicated himself full time to my case even though I knew he had other clients. That's how responsive he was. If you are ever unfortunate enough to be in a situation where you think you might benefit from legal counsel for juvenile dependency, I strongly urge you to have a chat with Landon. He is the real deal, a seasoned pro of high integrity, intelligence, and passion. I didn't want to take any chances when it came to custody of my son, and I knew after our first phone conversation that my chances would be far better with Landon than without. My initial fear and anxiety at my situation immediately gave way to reassurance and hope, and thanks to Landon's efforts, I was ultimately able to regain custody of my son. Highest possible recommendation from me.

A trustworthy attorney

My husband and I were looking to hire an attorney for a case that was highly emotional for us. Landon was extremely helpful to us as we sorted out how we wanted to proceed. We chose him over several other attorney's that I interviewed because I felt he was honest and genuinely supportive and understa...nding. He was extremely knowledgable as well as patient and helpful. I felt like I was working with a friend. If I ever need an attorney in the future, I will absolutely use Landon and I will recommend him to any of my friends as well.

Excellent Attorney

We were referred to Landon by our foster daughter's attorney and we are so grateful for the knowledge, skill and support he has provided. We had a consultation with another attorney prior to meeting Landon but we were incredibly impressed with the level of attention and committment to our case that L...andon showed from the first moment of contact. Landon is experienced, honest, and compassionate and has been a great support in very challenging times. Landon has been instrumental in our case taking a more positive turn. Though there were many factors beyond our control he was always positive and a huge support to us legally and as a family. Landon is a very skillful advocate in court and knows when and how to ask the right questions and get the best outcome. He is friendly and very easy to talk to and always makes himself available to his clients. We are so glad we hired Landon and highly recommend him, he really is the best.

Attorney for Car Accident and Insurance Payout

I immediately called Mr. Villavaso after I was rear-ended in a car accident. We spent almost an hour on the phone talking about the accident, what I needed to do next, and what paperwork he needed to begin contacting my insurance company. He listened to me without interrupting and explained very well... what the next steps would pertain. Throughout the process he made it a point to keep me updated on my claim and case. Without him I would have been lost in the process and would have not received the monetary compensation I deserved. I will definitely reach out to Mr. Villavaso for any other legal matters as I appreciated the time he gave to my case and how he genuinely had my interests at heart.
