The Department of Migrant Workers has partnered with a private law firm to expand legal assistance for overseas Filipino workers.
The agreement aims to provide timely and appropriate legal support, particularly during crises and disputes that affect the rights and welfare of OFWs.
Officials said the partnership strengthens institutional mechanisms to protect Filipino workers abroad and improves access to legal services.
The initiative also reflects a broader effort to enhance support systems for OFWs facing legal challenges in host countries.
Authorities said both parties are committed to ensuring that Filipino workers receive accessible and effective legal guidance when needed.
