[Greetings]
After graduating from university, I began my career in the insurance industry, where I worked while studying for the bar exam and successfully obtained my attorney’s license.
In insurance companies, I was responsible for internal legal affairs, compliance, and risk management. I worked to strengthen internal control systems and, in some cases, developed such systems from the ground up. More recently, I served as an executive officer at an insurance holding company, overseeing legal and compliance matters for the entire group. Drawing on these experiences, I am able to provide practical advice to insurance companies and insurance agencies on enhancing their internal control frameworks.
I subsequently gained experience at an IT company specializing in agile development, where I became well-versed in contract-related issues unique to the IT industry and can offer precise and practical guidance.
I also worked at a manufacturer in the energy sector, engaging in contract review and negotiation based on European and U.S. standards.
Currently, while practicing as an attorney, I am also engaged in work for a foreign travel business company, striving to acquire new knowledge through day-to-day operations.
Leveraging my extensive experience in legal affairs, compliance, and risk management within corporate settings, I provide not only legal advisory services but also comprehensive support as an Alternative Legal Service Provider (ALSP/LPO).
At the same time, I handle a wide range of individual matters, including family issues, labor concerns, real estate, and consumer loans. When necessary, I collaborate closely with affiliated attorneys to ensure the most appropriate response. Please feel free to reach out.
As I am able to provide services in English, I also welcome consultations from foreign individuals and international companies.
To deliver even higher-quality services, I joined the Asahi LPC Tokyo Office (located in Toranomon, Minato-ku, Tokyo) in October 2025 (See the link).
