(On ACCRALAW’s 50th Anniversary)
On the 1st of May 2022, the Firm attained a glorious milestone: Golden Anniversary. We, the Partners of ACCRALAW, are truly privileged to witness and share this historical event despite the unprecedented challenges brought by global crises, such as the pandemic and the Ukraine war. Indeed, the Firm’s endurance and growth over the past 50 years are a testament to its institutional presence in the Philippine legal landscape, a measure of success that we cannot claim as our own. We owe it to many others, and for which we are grateful.

Featured Lawyer
Maria Khristina Z. Garcia-Angel
Maria Khristina “Gar” Garcia-Angel is the Head of the Firm’s Immigration Department. Her extensive background in labor and employment complements her immigration law expertise. As such, she is the go-to person and trusted advisor to the Firm’s long list of expatriates and multinational clients.
Gar was elected as Secretary of the Immigration Lawyers Association of the Philippines (ILAP), where she has been actively advocating for more efficient immigration protocols and regulations.
Gar obtained her Master of Business Administration-Juris Doctor degrees from the De La Salle University-Far Eastern University Institute of Law in 2008. She was selected to participate in an academic program on international law course electives in Florence, Italy. That learning opportunity broadened her views on cross-cultural and cross-border nuances of law practice.
When she is not grappling with legal issues, Gar is kept grounded by her family at home, where she plays an integral and sometimes even more challenging role as a wife to Jon, and mother to Leigh, Dree and Milos.
