Your hard work and dedication have paid off.

As you begin this new chapter in your journey, you also embrace a noble role as a defender of justice.

Earning the esteemed title of Atty. before your name is not just a milestone—it is a testament to your commitment and potential to make a meaningful difference on the lives of those who need it most.

Your work as a lawyer will be more than a profession; it can be a powerful force for positive change.

As harrowing stories of human rights violations from the past administration continue to surface, we are reminded that these injustices remain an undeniable reality for many Filipinos today. There is a continuing need for passionate and courageous human rights lawyers to stand with the poor, the oppressed, and marginalized communities who are too often overlooked.

May you choose to use your skills and knowledge to uphold the mantle of justice with compassion, bravery, and a sense of duty. May this path lead you to stand in the frontlines with us, together with the Filipino people. #
