Four Seas Restaurant

Gordon & Rees LLP proudly served as a Platinum Sponsor of the 26th Annual Filipino Bar Association of Northern California (FBANC) Installation of Officers dinner.

FBANC hosted its Annual Installation Dinner on the evening of Friday, April 28, 2006, at the historic Four Seas Restaurant in San Francisco's Chinatown. FBANC has over 300 members, including attorneys, judges, and students throughout the Bay Area and Northern California. FBANC's attorney members hold positions ranging from law firm partners to elected officials to leaders of community-service organizations. The Annual Dinner, when leadership of the organization officially changes each year, is FBANC's most well-attended event of the year.

FBANC's mission is to support, educate, encourage, and empower the members of FBANC to excel and succeed in their educational and professional endeavors. To that end, FBANC serves its community with legal clinics and seminars, and serves its membership through scholarships and networking events.

Seated at the Gordon & Rees table were Aris Evia (former FBANC officer), Rachel Juliana (former attorney at the firm and FBANC President), Chuck Juliana, Karineh Khachatourian, Cliff Baker, Acela Baker, and Glenn Fajardo (former President of the Young Filipinos Professional Association).
