Anna Liza Gonzalez–Logan has served as Chief Presidential Legal Counsel since December 16, 2025, under Philippine President Bongbong Marcos, replacing Juan Ponce Enrile who died during his tenure in office.[1]
Education
Logan obtained her law degree from San Beda University and was admitted to the Philippine Bar in 1998.[2]
Early career
Logan was an associate at the law firm Agabin Verzola Hermoso Layaoen & De Castro, whose partners include Pacifico Agabin, counsel for impeached and convicted President Joseph Estrada. She later became a junior partner at Marcos Ochoa Serapio and Tan (MOST), the now-defunct law firm of First Lady Liza Araneta-Marcos. In 2019, Logan co-founded Logan Masukat Ronulo Huang Law Office.[3] She also served on the board of directors of the Philippine National Railroad and previously held the position of Deputy Executive Secretary for Legal Affairs in the Office of the President.[4]
Ombudsman application
In 2025, Logan applied for the position of Ombudsman. Regarding Statement of Assets, Liabilities and Net Worth (SALN) transparency, Logan stated that if chosen, she would abandon the memorandum issued by former Ombudsman Samuel Martires that restricted access to SALNs, noting that it does not promote transparency. On lifestyle checks, Logan indicated it had been a program of the Ombudsman previously and stated she would continue it if appointed. However, she emphasized that prior to relaunching it, she would ensure guidelines are in place and that personnel in the Ombudsman's office receive proper training to conduct these checks.[5]
Personal life
Logan is married to Michael Logan.
