Carlos Villamar Lawyer Reviews & Ratings - Falls Church

I never planned on being a lawyer or an engineer for that matter.  Out of High School, I joined the Air Force to seek adventure and found a good bit of it as a Pararescue candidate.  Pararecuemen or PJs are USAF Special Forces combat paramedics, which like the SEALS operate in the SEA, Air and Land. During wartime, PJs may be sent over enemy lines to parachute in or via helicopter to recue downed pilots.  During peacetime, PJs perform all forms of civilian air, sea and mountain rescue operations.  Although I successfully completed the grueling Pararescue Indoctrination training and Army Airborne training, the stars were not aligned for me and I eventually washed out of the program during Army Special Forces Scuba School training and partly due to a medical injury.  However, the lessons learned in the military and especially through the PJ training forged my never quit and always give 110% character for the rest of my life.. After a short military career, I decided to become an electrical engineer and eventually a patent attorney. I always say that I am an engineer first and an attorney second and this is due to my long career as an electrical engineer working in the industry on everything from missiles, to fighter aircraft, to state-of-the-art signal processing technologies.  It took me a long time to admit that I am Geek, but as a summer associate at Nixon Peabody once pointed out -- you can’t spell beer without a double e!. I have many hobbies including martial arts, and I am currently studying Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu (BJJ) with my sons Andi and Alex, ages 7 and 10.  I love animals and our family also includes our cat Nelly and our Belgian Malinois puppy Max.  I am a big video gamer and build my own custom gaming systems and always stay up to date with the latest games and gaming technologies.  One game I especially like, Crysis has the most advanced gaming engine I have seen to date and can render virtual worlds with photorealism and real world physics that is second to none.. I am a dedicated family man, passionate about my work, and although I make myself available to my clients 24/7, my family always has and will always come first.  My wife Barbara (or my better 3/4s as I call her) also is a practicing attorney at my firm and has a law degree from Germany and a PhD in law from the George Washington University. Needless to say, Barbara is the cornerstone of our family and I would not be complete or successful without her.. In closing and as in all of my e-mail signature lines--“as always please feel free to contact me at any time.”. Cheers!. Carlos
