Lawyers Introduction
Jun Kajita (Representative lawyer)
Since being admitted to the practice of law as an attorney, I have received requests from many clients both individual and corporate and have taken charge of a wide range of civil and criminal matters.
In particular, over the last few years, I have devoted myself to civil issues involving international elements (e.g., international family issues and immigration cases), thereby deepening my knowledge and experience. To date, I have handled hundreds of such matters, and I take pride in being one of the most experienced lawyers in Japan with ever-expanding expertise in this field. Our office will continue to handle international civil issues as a core part of our work while constantly striving to enhance our expertise in resolving a vast array of complex problems.

Anna Sakahashi
I spent three years of my early primary school years in a local school in the UK, surrounded by people of various nationalities, cultures and backgrounds.
Even though it took getting used to, and I was confused at first, I have strong memories of my friends, who accepted me and kindly taught me anything I wanted to know.
At the same time, I also learned during this time that there are many children who suffer and feel unhappy because of their family environment.
From this experience, I decided to become a lawyer because I wanted to work in a profession where I could reach out to vulnerable people who have difficulty escaping from their problems on their own.
If you are faced with a problem or incident and are worried about, we will work together to find the best solution, and I will devote myself to making you happy and helping you to lead a more fulfilling life.

Taiki Yunokuchi
“A license of attorney at law is a passport to cut into the world.”
This phrase was given to me by a lawyer when I was a student. This phrase inspired me to pursue a career as a lawyer, as I yearn for a lawyer who could be swift and active in order to protect people's freedom.
As a child, I was taught English by the mother of a classmate who was a Filipino national. And as a student, I traveled alone to France, assisted in the development of laws in Vietnam, and studied abroad at an American law school.
With these experiences, I will sincerely work for clients from various cultural backgrounds and do my best to brighten their lives.

Our Vision
Actively outreach and shine light in places where the law does not shine.
Our mission
I became interested in projects related to foreign nationalities or foreign relations based on my experience of visiting various parts of the world as a student. The people from many countries I visited welcomed me warmly and welcomed me as a foreigner who didn't know right or left. From this experience, in order to give back to him and her who welcomed me, foreign nationals who lived in Japan became more fond of Japan and created a comfortable society. I came to think that it would be a repayment.
In a rapidly internationalized society, many people in Japan also visit Japan and live as members of Japanese society. However, as a lawyer, I can't shake my head straightly when I think whether Japan is really a comfortable society for them or they can live without discrimination. There are actually people who are discriminated against or exploited in places where the light of the law is not.
As a lawyer, we give our office the sincere response and resolution of each case so that Japanese society can become a peaceful and loving society without discrimination based on race or color. It is a mission that has been established, and we believe that carrying out this is one way to realize the society we aim for.
