we promise reliable solutions through expertise, experience, and language support.

01

Advanced Expertise

Professionals in International Divorce, International Inheritance, and Immigration Law

Our firm is the only law office in Kyoto Prefecture specializing exclusively in international divorce, international inheritance, and immigration cases. International family matters and foreign residency procedures involve multiple countries' laws, systems, cultures, and languages, making them impossible to handle with general legal knowledge alone.

Our firm handles complex international family cases appropriately and promptly based on comprehensive expertise including private international law, family and inheritance laws of various countries, coordination procedures with embassies and consulates of various countries, and the Hague Convention.

Whether international cases are "handled as a specialty" is a factor that greatly affects the quality of resolution. Our firm protects our clients' interests to the maximum extent with this "expertise" at its core.

Years of Knowledge and Experience

Track Record of Resolving Numerous International Cases

International divorce, international inheritance, and residency status applications vary greatly in their resolution direction depending on individual circumstances and cannot be resolved with uniform responses. Our firm has handled numerous international cases and possesses abundant resolution achievements and accumulated expertise.

  • Divorce negotiations between couples of different nationalities
  • International inheritance involving heirs of multiple nationalities
  • Reapplication for residency status with high risk of denial
  • Procedural negotiations regarding international inheritance with overseas residents
  • Obtaining and translating certificates, family registers, and official documents from various countries, handling apostille and consular authentication

Having experienced many such complex cases, we can formulate appropriate strategies tailored to each client's situation and guide them to the best course of action.

Even if you are at the stage of "not knowing where to start," please feel free to consult with us.

Direct Communication in Foreign Languages

Communication Possible in English, Chinese, and Other Languages

In international cases, it is extremely important whether "clients can accurately convey what they want to say" and "properly understand the content of procedures." Our firm can provide direct support in foreign languages including English, allowing foreign clients to consult with peace of mind.

  • Direct consultation and explanation by attorneys in English and French
  • Document preparation and email correspondence in English, French, Spanish, etc.
  • Communication in English with overseas law firms and public institutions
  • Investigation and organization of multilingual materials and evidence documents
  • Communication support connecting foreign clients with Japanese parties

"Direct language communication" without relying on translation prevents misunderstandings and miscommunication, enabling accurate and smooth case progress.
