Inaugurated on August 5, 2005, the firm’s Cebu Branch Office works together with the Apostleship of the Sea, a Catholic Church spearheaded NGO which has its own Stella Maris Seafarers’ Cebu City, in safeguarding Filipino seafarers’ welfare in the area. Home to over 80% of the country’s inter island shipping companies, the “Queen City of the South” was an obvious location for the firm’s expansion.
By putting up a branch office in Cebu City, SVBB was able to provide seafarers with timely and efficient legal service as well as meet the growing need of the ever evolving city for world-class legal assistance in intellectual property matters. The presence of SVBB in Cebu City likewise enables the firm to protect its clients’ intellectual property rights in the Visayas region through effective enforcement actions designed to curb illegal activities of infringers.
