As an American lawyer licensed in Japan, with many years of broad international experience, I concentrate on family office matters for both foreigners and Japanese nationals, including projects for individuals such as wills, trusts, estates, asset shelters, succession planning and investments, and those for their businesses.

I have had the good fortune to be trained at Columbia University Law School and its post-graduate international program on the subtleties of international law and tax issues, as well as in a top Wall Street law firm and in four major multinational companies, one family-controlled, and thus to have achieved success in a very wide variety of legal matters, ranging from wills and estate matters for extremely wealthy individuals, to investments, real estate, governance, M&A and other projects for large and small companies.

Can I help you? Call and ask. I think you will find that while I am not a “discount lawyer” (none are cheap in Japan), I offer great value.
