We came to Alex Villela to handle all legal aspects of closing our house purchase in Palmetto Bay. Alex was very professional, starting with his offering very good advice as to how best to record the deed. He provided prompt and efficient services and independently coordinated with the real estate agent. We couldn’t be happier with the result. I recommend Villela and Villela whole heartedly!

I would like to take the opportunity to express my sincere appreciation for the excellent and outstanding legal service provided to me by Alex Villela. My case was very complicated, but he always went forward, gave me options, put me in touch with the right people and demonstrated a commitment in making difficult and complex legal processes as easy as possible. Quick to respond to my questions and concerns, attentive to details, and willing to go beyond the call of duty in order to assist me with my case. We look forward to continue working with him in the future.

We contacted Attorney Villela for guidance on the purchase of property on the Island of Roatan. The purchase of this property was more complicated than purchasing property in the United States. However, Mr. Villela was responsive to our requests and concerns, and knowledgeable regarding this process. We were very comfortable working with him and have retained him to provide other legal services. We would not hesitate to recommend Mr. Villela to anyone who is looking for legal representation in the purchase of real estate and other legal services on Roatan.

My wife and I decided to purchase a condo on Roatan Island but neglected to use a lawyer to oversee the transaction. After becoming the victims of real estate fraud we researched and tried to hire a Honduran lawyer to take our case. Many unanswered phone calls and e-mails followed. Another victim suggested hiring Alex Villela to represent us in our case. He immediately took our case, answered every question, returned every e-mail, and explained his plan clearly as to how he would make sure we were successful in gaining our title back. His knowledge of all of the subtle nuances of Honduran law is uncanny.

We have used the services of Mr. Alex Villela for more than one year for our corporate work in Roatán. Alex is a consummate professional who takes all tasks seriously and attentively. He is well worth the peace of mind he gives with his hard work, breadth of knowledge, common courtesy, connections and integrity.

The best advice we can offer anyone considering buying real estate in the Bay Islands is to consult with attorney Alex Villela. He is an excellent attorney who is well-versed in the intricacies of Honduran law. His approach to the practice of law is as simple as it is critical: achieving your best interest. His legal advice is objective, well-researched, and thorough. He tells you what you need to know, not just what you want to hear. When he is unfamiliar with a question of law he is the first to admit it and most importantly, knows exactly who is best qualified to ask for advice. The two most important qualities in any attorney are trust and competence. Thanks to Alex Villela and his team, we purchased our piece of paradise in Cayos Cochinos.

We owned real estate property in Roatan and were searching for competent representation to assist us in its sale. We found Alex Villela via a referral from an international attorney in Miami and retained his Firm to represent us in what was a difficult transaction. Everything closed smoothly and we could not be more pleased.

Alex processed the Honduran residencies of both myself and my wife Tiffany. He did so in a timely manner and without issue. We were very happy with his service and would recommend him highly.

Villela served as a superb partner during our international immigration and asylum case. Alex was very responsive to our needs and provided the highest standards of legal counseling and client service. You cannot do better to have your legal needs met than by contacting him; he operates one of the premier law firms in Honduras. I will definitely be using them again in the future.

I had the honor of meeting Mr. Alex through a mutual friend of ours, which Mr. Alex and I have know for years. He has always been a consummate gentleman. Having worked with other attorneys, I find his legal prowess second to none. His soothing voice and well thought out replies to enquiries put me at ease. The speed with which he works while maintaining the highest standards continues to astound me. After what started as a business relationship, I am proud to consider him a close, good friend and confidant.

I have used Alex Villela numerous times and he has always been very courteous, very professional and very attentive to the needs we have had at the time. We truly trust his advice and consulting. I would highly recommend him without any rese

We engaged with Alex when we had an urgent and complex matter The task seemed impossible within the timeframe but Alex, Lisa and their extended network acted quickly and efficiently. They achieved and exceeded our expectations. We couldn't be happier with the responsive service, and would not hesitate to recommend their services or to engage them on matters in the future. They really do go beyond and above to get things done.

Alex Villela has demonstrated his skill, professionalism and knowledge in his service to the church that I pastor on the island of Roatán, Honduras. After working with other attorneys without success, Villela was able to obtain the personería juridica required to register and operate a church in Honduras. A process that had dragged on for years was reduced to just a few months once we made the decision to utilize his services. This kind of results orientation is difficult to find in a law firm and we are very pleased with the results achieved.

I am an expat living in West Bay on the Island of Roatan. All I can say is what a relief it was to meet Alex Villela. He has taken on all my legal situations and has handled everything quickly, efficiently and very professionally. I know from living in Honduras that I need to seek legal council for just about everything I do (Becoming a Honduran Resident, Forming a Corporation, Buying and Selling Real Estate, Building a Home, Hiring a Domestic, etc.). Alex is a wealth of information and can handle anything, and I do mean anything, you throw at him.

I had to take the deposition of an American physician that retired to Roatan, Honduras. Alex did an excellent job setting up the venue, ensuring that the proper officials were present to administer an oath to the witness, and having the documents certified by the authorities. Since Honduras is not a party to many of the Hague Convention treaties, this would have otherwise required a lengthy process through the American Embassy.

We employed Alex Villela, one of two firms recommended by the US Department of State, for the purchase of a house on Roatan. Personally, he was very affable, cooperative, communicated well and always took extra steps to ensure that the transaction went smoothly. Professionally, he was diligent, well informed and attended carefully to every detail. We always had the sense that he was well aware of what was occurring and that we could contact him to ask questions…and we asked many, many questions. In addition to all the competence displayed, Alex’s fees were quite reasonable. We full heartedly recommend you use his services without any reservations whatsoever.

I have the utmost respect for Mr. Villela. He took on and handled a very complex real estate transaction that had a very high risk of me loosing my entire investment. His knowledge of Honduran law is exceptional, and by far he has been the most competent attorney I ever had to deal with. I would say that I emailed him well over 150 times, of which he answered every one. The final out come was complete success. If you are looking for a winning attorney, you need look no further, because you have found him.

As an investor, I met a lot of dishonest people that made it difficult to even think of having a successful business without good knowledge of the legal system and without my full time presence. After meeting Mr. Villela, I felt much more confidence in doing business in Roatan for this one and only reason - In him, I found a trustworthy and capable person and partner. I appreciate his attitude and knowledge, but also the way he communicates and keeps his promise, deadlines, everything.

Having Alex Villela represent me was a wonderful overall experience - I highly recommend him. Alex was kind, compassionate, very insightful, and proved himself to be an expert in his field. A true professional. I felt comfortable and confident as he guided me through a challenging situation, and it was an absolute pleasure getting to know him.

Recently, I needed to retain the services of an attorney here on Roatan. Luckily, a friend referred me to Villela & Villela. Alex Villela and Miguel Villela were the attorneys we needed. We felt very comfortable after meeting with Alex that our problem was in very good hands. Their knowledge of the law was vitally important to our case. They explained the Honduran legal system which is very different and very complex. They were very understanding and kept us completely up to date on our case. The case was resolved quickly and completely in my favor by two seriously brilliant attorneys.

I am writing this review with pleasure, and to help other potential clients make the right choice. While many other offices refused to provide legal services for me during the Pandemic, Mr. Villela accepted and executed tasks with high accuracy and efficiency. Although the situation required coordination with the highest level Governmental institutions, the job was done before expected; solidifying the extremely important trust between law office and client. Alex is highly recommended, no matter how challenging your requirement is.

Thank you for all the logistics arrangements. Carl and I are looking forward to our trip to Honduras. The trip is being made easier by all the splendid arrangements!

Alex is a very knowledgeable and capable attorney. He completed my residency in a timely manner and always kept me informed of what was going on during the process. Very trustworthy.

That was very nicely done.Thank you for your kind assistance and professionalism in dealing with the many hurdles encountered in this process.
