This month’s lawyers’ meeting took us outside the office. A shift in space that made room for deeper conversations, honest reflection, and shared direction.

Our meetings aren’t just about updates and to-do’s. They’re built on collaboration,
inclusion, and exchange — where everyone, from associates to partners, has space to contribute, question, and grow. It’s a culture we value deeply and intentionally enforce in how we work and lead.

The firm continues to evolve, and with it, so do we — finding clarity, meaning, and momentum in shared goals and grounded conversations.

You worked hard on your creation.
So why is someone else using it like it’s theirs? What can you do when someone uses your work without permission? 👀

Don’t let “libre na lang” be the default.
Protect your work. Protect your worth.

If you’re a creative, your work has value. When someone asks you to design, write, or shoot for free, they’re not only disrespecting your craft—they might also be violating the law.
Under the Intellectual Property Code, your work is protected the moment it’s created. Don’t work for exposure. Protect your ideas, and get the compensation you deserve.

For inquiries related to intellectual property or creative rights, you may reach AJA Law through the DMs or visit www.ajalaw.ph.

From the misty peaks of Victoria to the storybook charm of Disneyland and the neon-lit heartbeat of Hong Kong’s streets, AJA Law trades courtrooms for crossroads, briefings for breathtaking views. In a city where East meets West and ambition never sleeps, even lawyers must pause—to revel, to recharge, to remind themselves that the best arguments are sometimes won over dim sum and skyline reflections. 🥟✨ #AJALawAdventures #AJALawGoesToHongKong #WorkHardPlayHarder

🎄✨ Celebrating 4 Years with the Gift of Knowledge and Hope 🎁📚

As tradition, AJA Law celebrated its 4th Anniversary with another meaningful collaboration to kickstart this Christmas season. Together with CANVAS, we brought the magic of stories and the gift of learning to the remarkable children of Tuloy Foundation. The event was a beautiful fusion of love, hope, and the true essence of the holidays. 🎄❤️

To add to the festive spirit, we shared inspiring books, school supplies, and heartfelt smiles to nurture the children’s love for learning.

Our deepest gratitude goes to CANVAS for their incredible books, which weave hope and imagination into every page, and to Tuloy Foundation for their dedication to shaping bright futures for these young hearts. This holiday season, we’re reminded that the most meaningful gifts are those that uplift, inspire, and transform lives.

Let’s continue spreading holiday cheer through the spirit of giving! Visit @canvasph.art and @tuloyfoundation to discover how you can help share the gift of knowledge and kindness. Together, we can make this Christmas season a celebration of compassion and community. 🌟

On 15 November 2024, AJA Law, in partnership with CANVAS (@canvasph.art), continued our advocacy for education and creativity by donating books to Tuloy Foundation.

We had the privilege of reading Karapat Dapat with the children—a beautifully illustrated book introducing the UN’s Convention on the Rights of the Child. The book’s message of rights, dignity, and hope resonated in every page, sparking meaningful conversations with the young readers about their dreams and aspirations which was both humbling and inspiring.

It was an honor to play even a small part in their journey toward a brighter future. This experience reminded us of the power of storytelling and the profound impact of small acts of kindness in shaping young lives.

AJA Law teamed up with CANVAS (@canvasph.art) and their inspiring One Million Books for One Million Filipino Children campaign to celebrate our 4th Anniversary. The first chapter of this meaningful two-part initiative began with a visit to San Isidro Elementary School, where we contributed books to enrich their library and cultivate a lifelong love for learning among the students.

The event was not just about donating books— it was a poignant reminder of why we do what we do. As lawyers, we often focus on words written in books of law, but this event reminded us that the most powerful words are the ones that ignite a child’s imagination, broaden their horizons, and spark their dreams. Handing over these books wasn’t just an act of giving—it was a chance to plant seeds of curiosity and empowerment in young minds.

Article 282 of our Revised Penal Code treats grave threats seriously—protecting life, honor, and property of a person and their family. Our laws underscore the importance of protecting individuals from threats that may not yet involve actual violence but are still designed to instill fear, cause distress, or coerce someone into compliance. Learn more about how our laws safeguard us from intimidation and harm.

🌧️ Protecting Employee Safety During Bad Weather 🌧️

In light of recent weather disturbances, it's essential for both employers and employees to understand their rights and responsibilities. Labor Advisory No. 17-2022 reminds private-sector employers of its prerogative to suspend work during bad weather and affirms the rights of employees to refuse to go to work in times of imminent danger. ⚖️

With clear wage guidelines and safety measures in place, DOLE’s advisory helps create a safer, more compassionate workplace for all.

Stay informed and protected. Reach out to us for guidance on implementing these protective measures effectively!
