Welcome to Japan Legal Support.
My goal is simple: to help foreigners live, work, and thrive in Japan with peace of mind.
The idea behind this project is straightforward: to ensure that foreigners can build their lives in Japan without fear of legal or cultural barriers.
My Background
I am originally from Aichi Prefecture and now live in Nagoya. I spent five years working at an accounting firm in Tokyo, where I developed expertise in accounting, taxation, and insurance. With this professional background, I decided to return to my hometown and dedicate myself to combining legal knowledge and English skills to support foreigners in Japan.
My Mission
I chose the path of becoming an Administrative Scrivener (Gyoseishoshi Lawyer) because I strongly want to help foreigners in Japan feel secure and supported. Living in a foreign country can be overwhelming, and I believe that no one should be left alone when facing legal or cultural challenges.
I am currently preparing to open my practice as an Administrative Scrivener. This website is my way of sharing useful information with foreigners in Japan—and with those who are planning to move here—so that legal, cultural, and language barriers won’t stop you from building your life.
What You Will Find Here
On this site, you will find:
- Immigration: Visa and residency information
- Work: Insights into Japan’s labor environment
- Life in Japan: Practical guides for daily living
- Learn Japanese: Idioms, phrases, and study support
For Companies
Beyond supporting individuals, I also aim to assist companies that employ or plan to employ foreign staff.
With my professional background in accounting, taxation, and English skills, I understand both the financial and legal perspectives that businesses must balance.
This dual expertise allows me to provide practical, reliable support to organizations navigating Japan’s complex legal environment.
Guiding Principle
My guiding phrase is: “Your Legal Guide in Japan.”
I truly hope this site helps you feel more confident, informed, and supported in your journey.
