Nice to meet you. My name is Shoki Dohi, a lawyer at SAKURA Law Office.

My interest in the legal profession started from a drama I watched during my childhood. Back then, it was just a vague admiration for being a lawyer.

Later, as I entered university and became more involved with society, I encountered many situations where it seemed that the law did not function sufficiently in real-world scenarios. As a result, I witnessed people around me getting involved in troubles that I couldn’t do anything about due to my lack of legal knowledge. This sense of frustration and helplessness made me decide to pursue the profession of a lawyer, so that I could legally support those in need based on these experiences.

Currently, with rapid technological innovations and the progress of globalization, society is becoming increasingly complex and advanced. Along with this, new legal issues, which we have never experienced before, are emerging daily. It is no exaggeration to say that it is impossible for people to engage in daily life and economic activities without encountering legal problems. In this era, I strive to remain a lawyer who is sensitive to legal issues present in society and able to provide prompt and precise legal support.

Clients often hesitate to consult a lawyer, thinking, "Is it okay to consult about such a trivial matter?" or "Is the trouble I am involved in a legal issue?" However, delaying the timing of consultation can easily lead to situations where issues that could have been prevented become impossible to resolve. To minimize the impact of such problems, I encourage clients to feel free to consult any lawyer at SAKURA Law Office, no matter how trivial the matter may seem.

When consulting a lawyer at SAKURA Law Office, I aim to carefully listen to the client’s concerns and fully understand their intentions. I will also provide a detailed explanation of the possible legal measures to resolve the issue, and highlight the pros and cons of those options.

Some cases may require urgent responses. Especially for businesses, quick action may be crucial for survival and management decisions. Our team of lawyers at SAKURA Law Office will work together to ensure swift responses and continually strive to build a strong, trusted relationship with our clients.

I am where I am today thanks to the support of many people. I am determined to work diligently in return for their kindness.

Thank you for reading this far.

If you have any concerns, no matter how small, please do not hesitate to contact or consult with us.
