Although seemingly green horned in the practice of law, Atty. Ezra was able to compile significant and diverse experience in the said field.

 

His internship includes stints at the Bureau of Customs and the National Bureau of Investigation which exposed him on intricate and technical matters of law even before taking his oath as a lawyer. This gives him an advance insight in private practice and inner workings of government intuitions which eventually became his leading edge when he passed the bar and joined the legal profession.

 

Upon passing the bar, he was tapped by the local government unit of his hometown, the Municipality of Limay, Bataan to serve as one of its administrative consultants. Simultaneously, he joined Atty. Jordanne and Atty. Pyke to established the Laygo Caliuag Barrantes Law Offices.

 

Atty. Ezra is also a notary public and is a budding litigator in Bataan. He is also an active member of the Alpha Phi Omega Fraternity and Sorority.
