Otani & Partners Law Offices is a Tokyo-based law firm that has full capacity and rich experience in serving the clients with international scope and cross-border legal issues. Since its founding under the original name of Otani Law Offices in 1999, we have earned a solid reputation as a law firm that readily stands by the clients, shares their concerns, and strives to achieve the best possible outcome for each issue at hand.

Each and every lawyer in our firm maintains his/her specialty and refines the skills to meet the ever-increasing challenges of the complex intercultural world in which we live. Each lawyer of the firm also seeks to approach the given problem with objective eyes from the global viewpoint by having at least one foreign language capacity.

We recognize that every legal problem has its own unique importance to the client who brings it to us, and we strive to always be flexible by offering practical counseling that never loses sight of what best serves the client’s needs and goals, while at the same time being ready to vigorously fight for the benefit of the client.

The same principle applies when we serve the needs of foreign and Japanese companies that engage in international transactions in the multicultural environment as well as individuals, both in and out of Japan, who have cross-border legal problems.

While we take pride in delivering the legal services of highest quality in the utmost professional manner, we also aim to be an accessible, friendly, and open-minded law firm that comes to people’s mind first when they are pressed to retain a lawyer. We look forward to the opportunities to serve you.
