Legal Team Manager
Omana is our Legal Team Manager at Unified Law, where she balances client work with the behind-the-scenes support that keeps the legal team running smoothly. She assists U.S. clients with corporate transactions, contracts, governance, and deal support—bringing a sharp eye for detail, business-minded drafting, and steady reliability to every project.
Omana was Amy's very first hire —long before Unified Law even had a name. As Amy’s trusted paralegal during law school and beyond, Omana learned to think like in-house counsel from day one: blending precision, commercial practicality, and quiet strength. Today, she supports several General Counsel and leadership teams across industries, helping them move faster, stay organized, and get deals done with confidence.

Beyond the Bar
Hailing from Bukidnon, a province of stunning mountain ranges, Omana’s love for nature has always leaned toward the beach—preferably with a matcha in hand.
A self-proclaimed bookworm, she can go from a gripping political biography to an action-packed thriller in a weekend (bonus points for anything true crime).
Known for turning online shopping into an art form, Omana brings the same precision and attention to detail to her legal work—just with more packages arriving at her door.
