September 19, 2025

V&A Law is proud to announce that our partners have been once again recognized in this year’s edition of Asia Business Law Journal’s (ABLJ) A-List, which identifies the top private practice lawyers in the Philippines.

Chairman & CEO Raoul R. Angangco and Managing Partner Sylvette Y. Tankiang are once again named among the Philippines’ 38 legal icons—a distinction reserved for luminaries in the Philippine legal profession, celebrated not only for their achievements and stellar track records as prolific rainmakers, but also for their influence and role in shaping the next generation of lawyers.

Senior Partners Bienvenido I. Somera, Jr., Alejandro Alfonso E. Navarro, and Augusto A. San Pedro, Jr., and Junior Partner Rashel Ann C. Pomoy, have also maintained their spots among the Philippines’ Top 100 A-List Lawyers—recognized once again for their consistent excellence and meaningful contributions across a broad range of practice areas.

We are equally proud to celebrate the debut of Co-Managing Partner Juanito L. Sañosa among the Top 100, reflecting the next generation of leadership at V&A Law.

ABLJ’s A-List is the product of their extensive research, drawing on nominations from in-house counsel, corporate executives, and legal professionals. With this recognition, V&A Law is once again affirmed as one of the country’s most highly regarded and consistently trusted firms, combining over four decades of experience with forward-looking leadership. We are grateful for the continued trust and support.
