SVBB- LUSWELF paralegal lecture

Aristotle once said: ”Those that know do. Those that understand, teach”. Our law firm Sapalo Velez Bundang Bulilan ( SVBB) believes that the best way to afford legal protection to seafarers is for them to be properly educated of their legal rights. As part of our law firm's advocacy for seafarers' right, we conduct weekly paralegal lectures in coordination with organizations like Luneta Seafarers Welfare Foundation (LUSWELF). 

The paralegal lecture  is  divided into the following  parts:
Part I. Situationer of the seafaring industry, both in the national and international level  using statistics from POEA, CHED, BSP.
       Part II. Basic legal issues:  
(a)   sources of legal rights i.e. Phil. Constitution; R.A. 8042 as amended; Labor   laws; POEA Contract/ CBA; Civil Code  and
 b. kinds of cases: illegal recruitment, illegal dismissal, underpayment/ nonpayment of salaries/wages, disability benefits for illness and injury and death benefits
(c)       means how to protect these legal rights  

 Part III. Open forum
