Upon admission to the Philippine Bar in 1995, Zarate engaged in a small legal practice focused on human rights law, serving a wide clientele including laborers, small farmers, indigenous peoples (Lumad) including the Moro, urban poor, and political prisoners.[3] Zarate also served on various capacities on different professional associations for lawyers: As coordinator for the Free Legal Assistance Group (FLAG) in Davao City, as Secretary-General of the Union of People's Lawyers in Mindanao and Vice-President for Mindanao of the National Union of People's Lawyers (NUPL). He also once served as the President of the Davao City chapter of the Integrated Bar.[4]

gollark: There's Age of Engineering, which is a tiered-progression 1.10.2 pack.
gollark: I make custom modpacks containing only mods I like lots.
gollark: With enough P2P tunnels, storage buses and interfaces AE2 can do anything!
