Trusted legal representation for Plainfield and Will County. Villalobos & Associates has represented clients across Will County and the greater Chicagoland area since 1996.
Plainfield has grown fast along the Route 59 and 127th Street corridors, and with that growth comes more traffic stops, more landlord tenant disputes, and more real estate closings than the village saw a generation ago. Villalobos & Associates has kept pace, representing clients from the historic downtown along Lockport Street to the newer subdivisions off Naperville Road and Renwick Road. A criminal charge, an eviction, or a family estate matter in Plainfield deserves an experienced attorney who won't back down at the negotiating table or in the courtroom.
Most Plainfield matters, criminal, traffic, eviction, and civil, are heard at the Will County Courthouse in downtown Joliet. Residents in the small pocket of Plainfield that extends into Kendall County sometimes find their case routed to the Kendall County Courthouse in Yorkville instead, and our firm handles both without missing a step.
As a local attorney with nearly three decades of trial experience, founding attorney Raul Villalobos and attorney Mark Villalobos built this law firm on a simple idea: everyone deserves zealous legal representation, whether the matter is a felony charge, a contested eviction, or a family estate that needs to be settled correctly.
