On July 17, 2021, Atty. May Saga Aguilar launched a book entitled, “A Non-Lawyer’s Guide to Understanding Estafa.” The book is a big hit to lawyers and non-lawyers alike. Atty. Aguilar hails from Maasin City, Southern Leyte and is the only child of Placida “Sim-ai” and Luis Saga. Southern Leyte takes pride in her for coming up with this book.
“The objective of my books, and the articles I write on Facebook, is to make the law understandable by non-lawyers. Why? Because I think that the reason for most of the violations is that people do not understand the law. We are told to follow the law, and we are also told the ignorance of the law excuses no one. But we are NOT ignorant of the law. We know that the law exists. The problem is, unless we go to law school, we won’t understand it.”
