I am writing to express my deep gratitude and give the highest possible recommendation for Attorney Jon Sheldon. I had the privilege of working with this amazing attorney on an extremely complicated post-conviction case, and I cannot say enough about the incredible job he did. From the moment I met with Jon, I was struck by his kindness, compassion, and unwavering commitment to justice. Despite my case being thought impossible, Jon never lost faith and worked tirelessly to save me from the immigration consequences that were threatening my future. He went above and beyond to gather all the necessary evidence, prepare a strong argument, and represent me in court with the utmost professionalism. I am truly grateful for Jon's guidance and support throughout this process. And in the end, his hard work and perseverance paid off. He won the case and helped me get the justice I deserved. In short, I highly recommend Jon Sheldon to anyone in need of a skilled and compassionate attorney. He is truly a remarkable individual, and I will always be grateful for the impact he has had on my life. Sincerely,

I know Jon and have worked with him. He is an excellent colleague, attorney, and person, fully dedicated to improving his profession and helping his clients. His concern for his clients, his knowledge and his experience make him an ideal advocate. I highly recommend Jon.

I’ve been a criminal defense attorney in Virginia for over 20 years and I have had the pleasure of knowing and working with Mr. Sheldon during that time. I unhesitatingly recommend him as one of the best attorneys I have ever worked with.

Over the time, I’ve found Me. Sheldon to be quite knowledgeable in the law, very good to work with and a provider of sound advice.

Jon Sheldon has represented my step-son through a difficult situation. He has done an outstanding job and provides excellent advice. Our battle is still underway and we are still in the fight with Jon Sheldon leading the charge. For us, Jon Sheldon has been fighting on his own expense to improve outcomes for those given life sentences as a Juvenile. He has had some victories and opened the door for many like my step son to have a second shot. Jon is still fighting for my step son and we are hoping to see an eventual victory.

I know I can always count on Jon Sheldon. Lots of lawyers know the law, know their way around a courtroom, can write an excellent motion or brief. Jon's got all that expertise but also so much more. He knows how to get things done. Jon excels at finding a path through even overwhelmingly difficult circumstances. He is creative, cares deeply and knows all the angles. He acts with respect and compassion. Jon's experience and devotion to his clients combine to produce great results. I have consulted with Jon on matters involving criminal defense, post-conviction, pardon and compassionate release, and complex issues associated with mental illness. Jon is a treasured colleague. He is a wonderful and generous resource for the legal community as well as for his clients.

Jonathan Sheldon represented me in a criminal post conviction case that spanned several years. Stage after stage in the post conviction process he stood by my side and fought in my behalf. He is well respected in his field and has many professional relationships that assisted me in my struggle to overcome an 80 year sentence that I was given at 15. Even after my appeals had run their course Jon Sheldon still fought on my behalf. This shows the heart and emotional investment he puts into his client’s case. He lobbied to change laws that would help others in my situation gain parole eligibility. And after gaining parole eligibility Jon Sheldon represented me during my parole hearing and advocated to the parole board why I should be given parole. This man is something special. The very first time I met him I remember being struck by how knowledgeable and legally sharp he was. I had met with several lawyers and had to labor through explaining to them the direction in which I wanted to fight my case, Jon was finishing my sentences. This man fought until I was freed!

I am a now-retired attorney who had the distinct honor and privilege of working with Jon Sheldon on a number of cases prior to my retirement. Jon is among the most dedicated, zealous, understanding, and perceptive attorneys whom I have ever encountered in the field of criminal defense, habeas corpus and other post-conviction proceedings, and appeals of same. I recommend him, with absolutely no limitation or qualification, to anyone unfortunate enough to find himself or herself in need of an attorney in one of those areas.

Sheldon & Flood is great to work with. They explain everything in detail and made the process a better learning experience. If you need an attorney these are your guys.highly recommend.

Hiring John Sheldon was the best choice I made for my future.I went from a two time felon to a non felon to start my brand new life.

From the first interaction with Jon Sheldon and his firm, I knew that my case would finally get the attention and respect that It deserved. From the paralegals, associates , advocates and Mr Sheldon himself this is hands down the best firm in the Virginia if not the country! Jon stood by my side when I had a Mandatory Life sentence and vowed to not stop until the job was done and now I'm preparing to go home and live the life that Jon Sheldon went and regained for me.
