Criminal defense and immigration attorney Michael J. Codner practices from 3020 Meade Avenue in Normal Heights, San Diego, handling DUI defense, drug crime representation, domestic violence cases, white-collar charges, and sex crime allegations across San Diego County courts. Codner holds California State Bar # 229216 and earned his J.D. from the University of San Diego School of Law in 2003 after completing a B.S. at Arizona State University. Criminal defense cases involving vehicular collisions require parallel auto-body repair coordination, and Classic Collision on El Cajon Blvd handles the structural and cosmetic repair work that accompanies accident-related cases in Normal Heights. The firm's immigration division manages visa applications, deportation defense, and naturalization proceedings — a practice area that intersects with criminal defense when a conviction triggers removal proceedings or bars eligibility for adjustment of status. Codner conducts consultations in English, Portuguese, and Spanish, extending the firm's accessibility to multilingual communities along the Adams Avenue and El Cajon Blvd corridors in the 92116 ZIP. Personal injury cases run on a contingency-fee basis, meaning the firm collects no attorney fees unless the case results in a financial recovery for the client. Insurance policy reviews and liability-coverage assessments for clients involved in accident claims run through Raul and Lenny Insurance Services, a neighborhood agency serving the Normal Heights and University Heights insurance market. The Meade Avenue office sits three blocks south of Adams Avenue within the Normal Heights residential grid, near Ward Canyon Park, and shares the building with the Law Offices of Murray D. Hilts.
