October 11, 2024

Villaraza & Angangco is proud to announce that several of our lawyers have been recognized in the Asia Business Law Journal's (ABLJ) A-List for 2024.

Our late Co-Founder, Former CEO, and Chairman, F. Arthur “Pancho” L. Villaraza was honored as one of 35 Legal Icons on the A-list. The ABLJ defines Legal Icons as luminaries of the Philippine legal profession—leaders who inspire respect, guide top law firms and legal teams, and are prolific rainmakers.  Atty. Pancho is joined by current CEO and Chairman, Raoul “Reggie” R. Angangco and Managing Partner, Sylvette Y. Tankiang.

Senior Partners, Bienvenido I. Somera, Jr., Alejandro Alfonso E. Navarro, and Augusto A. San Pedro, Jr. have maintained their spots among the Philippines’ Top 100 lawyers. Joining them on the list for the first time are Senior Partner, Joseph Anthony P. Lopez and Partner, Rashel Ann C. Pomoy.

The ABLJ’s A-List is the result of a comprehensive nomination and research process, which involves insights from both local and international in-house counsel as well as international law firm Partners. This prestigious recognition highlights our partners' unwavering dedication and commitment to delivering the highest caliber of service.
