Bernardo Villalba

Bernardo Villalba is an attorney known for representing high-profile clients in legal matters. Recently, he has been in the news for advocating for his client, Hugo Javier González, a former governor of the Central department in Paraguay, who was released from preventive detention after serving six months in prison. Villalba argues for González's innocence and intends to appeal the conviction, which he claims was based on an arbitrary ruling regarding the alleged misappropriation of pandemic emergency funds.
