Pag-asa Law Clinic's Two Year Celebration and Charity Mini Golf

Come celebrate Pag-asa's Two Year Anniversary and help us raise money to keep our non-profit legal clinic running.

With over 200,000 Filipinos in San Diego County, Pag-asa Law Clinic is the first Filipino-based Law Clinic serving Filipinos regardless of legal status and the greater community in Southern California. The clinic provides pro bono (free) or low-cost legal services in the areas of immigration, naturalization, temporary restraining orders, and unlawful detainers.

“We want the Filipino community in San Diego to know that Pag-asa Law Clinic is here as a resource for them. We are here to help you navigate complicated legal problems and get you the access to justice that you deserve.” said Diana Laranang, President of Pag-asa Law Clinic. Pag-asa Law Clinic recognized the challenges for the Filipino community to access lawyers. “It’s not easy asking for help with personal legal issues. Pag-asa Law Clinic wants to make the legal process as easy as possible while providing the help our community needs,” said Valerie Garcia Hong, Director of Pag-asa Law Clinic and Attorney at Garcia Hong Law.

Pag-asa Law Clinic is run by volunteer attorneys and law student interns. “Pag-asa Law Clinic is of the people, for the people.’ Our volunteers are actual members of the community who understand and relate to the legal issues Filipinos can face. We believe it is our responsibility to give back to our community,” said Laranang.
