Firm Information

Overview

Too often, those facing criminal charges are stripped of their human dignity and basic rights before they even get to trial. I am Cody Villalon Attorney at Law, and fighting against this kind of injustice is what I dedicate my practice to each and every day. At my law firm, I put my more than 10 years of legal experience to work for my clients throughout the Commonwealth of Virginia who are facing criminal charges, including the following and more:

• DUI or DWI
• Drug violations, from possession to manufacturing and trafficking
• Theft, from shoplifting to embezzlement
• Traffic offenses that could jeopardize your driver's license
• Violent crimes, such as gun crimes and assault and battery

Obtaining a criminal record at any age can create struggles and challenges. However, when a young person winds up in the criminal justice system, it can easily damage an entire life. My law firm deftly handles juvenile crimes, but not by dealing only with the facts and the evidence. I also never lose sight of the people involved, the children and their families who may be confused and frightened about the future.

A mark on your criminal record may affect your ability to find meaningful work, obtain housing, complete your education or take advantage of other federal benefits. I have advocated for countless clients seeking to have charges removed from their criminal records through expungement, opening to them a more hopeful future.

From the day I began practicing law, I made a commitment to demonstrate compassion, integrity and respect to every client. At my law firm, you will receive my complete attention from our first meeting to the resolution of your case.

    Cody Villalon 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 Villalon. From the consultation to the closing argument, everything was handled with extreme care, proficiency, and excellence. 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!

    My husband and I visited Cody Villalon and I knew right then he is a great attorney. Cody Villalon was very honest, respectful, and did not lie about anything. Cody has the charge against my husband dismissed. I believed in Cody from the start. I will recommend Cody Villalon to anyone that needs a criminal attorney. Do not look at any other attorney, make your first and only stop with Cody Villalon.
